10 ways to increase your confidence
1. Think about someone who is confident and act, talk and walk like him or her.
Model their mannerisms and behaviour. It works for them; it will work for you.
2. Smile a lot more. That doesn’t mean putting a silly grin on your face!
But smile when you walk down the street, when you meet people and generally
be happier even if you’re not feeling that way.
3. Learn from the past; don’t beat yourself up about it. It’s gone;
it’s never coming back. Instead learn from it for next time.
4. Buy yourself some new clothes, get your hair done, treat yourself to something
new. It will make you feel better and will give your ego a boost.
5. Are you prepared for situations? Are you prepared enough to meet any challenge
that may come up? Are you prepared for that meeting, that presentation, that
job interview, when you meet someone for the first time? If not, get to it.
6. Play to your strengths. Know what you are good at and expose yourself to
these opportunities at every opportunity – because you’re good at
it, you’ll enjoy it and have more confidence.
7. Improve your weaknesses. Know and appreciate what these are and put a plan
in place to improve them over time.
8. Learn how to say no to people. Don’t be afraid, you’ve got nothing
to be afraid of. Just watch the reaction on their face after you’ve said
it the first time and there will be no going back.
9. Be positive. Look on the “can do” side of things rather than
the “can’t do”. You’ve accomplished lots in your life
and you will accomplish lots more in the future.
10. Be in charge of your thoughts at all times. What is a thought? It’s
just a question that you’ve asked yourself and the thought is you’re
answer. If you’re thinking negative thoughts, you’re probably asking
a negative question. Change the questions to be more positive.
