10 Ultimate Ways to Improve Your Self-Confidence
Some Ways to Improve your Self-Confidence
Best ways to improve your self confidence
1. Don’t compare yourself to others. You are totally unique, and
have different talents, abilities and strengths.
2.
Never criticise or put yourself down. There are plenty of others who
will do that for you. You need to be your biggest, and you greatest, fan. Be
understanding, gentle and kind to yourself.
3.
Consciously accept every compliment you get and see them as
accurate and genuinely meant. Don’t brush them off as stupid, wrong, or
meaningless.
4. Keep
affirming yourself until it changes how you feel. It may
feel false at first when you say something like “I accept myself completely–
and believe I’m valuable”. But as you constantly repeat it you’ll find that,
over time, you do accept and value the person that you are.
5.
Surround yourself with positive, encouraging people. If
you hang out with people who always put you down, and never seem to like or
approve of your ideas, then you’ll soon stop believing in yourself as well (and
it will also crush your creativity).
6. Make
a list of your successes and accomplishments – like playing an
instrument, learning how to cook, passing an exam, graduating from high school,
or getting into college, or receiving an award. Review this list often – and be
proud of yourself!
7. Make
a list of your positive qualities and traits. Are you an honest,
reliable and caring friend? Do you make time for others? Do you try to do your
best? Again, review this list often, and get into the habit of focusing on your
positive qualities and traits.
8.
Spend your time doing things that you are good at, and
enjoy. We become more alive when we’re doing things we love - and that
naturally increases our self-confidence (as we’re being our true selves and not
just acting out a role).
9. Get
involved. If you sit on the sidelines and avoid all challenges then
you won’t be able to achieve much in life. But if you push through the feelings
of anxiety and fear, then you’ll grow, be successful, and have higher self
esteem.
10. Be
true to yourself; live a life that’s really “you”. Don’t let
other people decide what you should do, or what is best for you, or who they
think that you should be. You only have one life – choose your own path – just
be you!
