Building Self Confidence Is Possible
Having a lack of self-confidence or low self-esteem can impact nearly all areas of your life. It can affect you while out with friends, while giving a presentation and while meeting new people, to name but a few. If you’ve been wondering if building self confidence is even possible, I can assure you that it absolutely is!
Lack of Building Self Confidence Prevents Progress
Confidence issues can be brought about for many different reasons and over time they become so commonplace that we just expect them to happen. If you are dealing with confidence issues at the moment you will understand just how it can affect your life and sometimes even prevent you from doing things that you really want to.
Some people allow it so it affects them in getting a promotion or meeting new people. I have met people that still haven’t found a husband or wife in their 40’s as they say that they are just too shy. I’ve put together a list of some of the tips that I give to my clients to help them regain their confidence.
Tips for Building Self Confidence
Surround yourself with positivity. Positive, enthusiastic and passionate people are contagious. Surround yourself with them and allow their confidence to brush off on you. By being around positive people, we will learn how they confidently deal with things in their life that would throw us off course.
Create a new image. This is a fantastic tip that will leave you feeling great. Create a whole new image that oozes with confidence — new clothes, new hairstyle, new glasses, etc. When you have this new image, it can aid in a new you to be born.
Watch what you say to yourself. We all talk to ourselves as we think about things. We say things like, ‘Oh I can’t afford that!’ This type of inner talk can be quite negative as it closes our mind to finding a solution. Instead saying something like, ‘How could I afford that’, allows you to use your brain for thinking and ultimately finding a solution.
Make a change Move career, house or make new friends. If you find that an element of your life is causing you to lack confidence – change it! Remember though that you set the limit on what is impossible, so open up your mind and consciously decide what you can and can’t do rather than just relying on your emotions to make these decisions for you.
