The first thing you need to do is realize what made you feel so? Then start on working out and have a positive outlook. Ok sometimes you got to get real and accept that you are not someone else and you don't have to be someone else to be happy. Be who you are and start smiling. If you do have a positive outlook in life people will start liking you for who you are and no matter what you are and what you'll be. Stick to friends who can be able to make you laugh and see things that will akcnowledge the goodness of life and not only the negative ones. Start eating healthy coz it helps on making you feel good. It is not an overnight thing so try to be patient. When you look at the mirror tell yourself you deserve the life the you have now and you deserve to be happy. You can be happy too if you make someone happy. Pray and have a spiritual life...i don't mean being consceintiously religious, just be hopeful and by praying you are making a way to be more positive.Sometimes you have just to accept that there's in life you cannot have and that there is still something you can do about it anyway. You have to work it out. And no one can help you do it if you won't let them,most of all you don't have to have someone decide for you. That's becoming a confident person.Know that you can do things on your own and believe you can do it for good.EnjoY! Merry Christmas!

Workout, join a sport, keep your head up. Go out and do whatever you want, if people don't like it give them the middle finger, it's your life girl don't waste it. Go to the library, read some books, gain some knowledge, don't always listen to the media because they try to put garbage in your brain, I have realized this after some pondering and researching. Trust me, if you're in middle or high school a lot of the stuff that you're going through won't matter in a couple of years. Matter of fact, right now you're making jokes for yourself when your in your 20s because you will look back and laugh. Me, myself I am only 15 but I am already starting to understand the world. Well stay up and keep your head up.

I wasn't extremely confident about 9 years ago and it was agonizing to say the least. But I put myself in really adverse situations by moving to New York and taking on a new job not knowing anyone. I also didn't make a lot of money so I had to be creative about really pushing hard for new opportunities.
Now I run my own company and for the most part, am really confident in cold calling for new business or networking at big conferences. I even met my girlfriend at a bar after she went on stage to sing.
When you place yourself in different and relatively challenging situations, the primal juices start flowing.

Well you need to build up your self esteem for one thing. That is very important. Think possitive things about your self, and learn to like yourself, love yourself. You know when you can see yourself in a possitive light, and know that you are as good as any one else you are on the road to getting confidence. So get rid of that stinken thinking and replace it with positive thinking. Try doing someone thing small once you get some self esteem, and don't take on the biggest thing you and find. Replace your neg. thoughts with positive thoughts. This is not easy, i know i had to do it. It works though. But takes time. So get too it.
Merry Christmas

Do anything and everything to make you feel better about yourself. Buy new clothes that you look great in, do your makeup and hair every time you go out. Little things you could do for example, if you are a small breasted girl, go buy a padded push up bra. Just that one little purchase will help. Your appearance is just a start, then you have to really learn how to love yourself. But the better you think you look the better you'll feel about yourself.

look, girl, you are a good person. no matter what. tell me something.... what can you do well? that is something to be proud of, because you and only you are good at it. and if you mean confidence in, say, doing a project for school, then you just have to trust yourself. try it out with others as well. for example, have a person catch you when you fall backward purposefully (but tell them first!) find something that you have a talent at, something that you're proud of, and that will give you confidence. "I can do something extremely well!" Just don't let ego go to your head. You can do anything if you try! =)

A good starting point for those without apparent confidence is to champion their modesty. Those who don't blurt out often are staying silent considering multiple approaches to what is at hand. Our society rewards the bold and audacious when we should be looking for more answers to the contemplative.

It seems that becoming comfortable in your own skin is key. When you stop apologizing for everything, and accept yourself for who you are, recognizing that God didn't make a mistake when He made you, that no man is an island unto himself- that every life impacts every other life, and that you are no fluke- you were put here for a reason. Try to find out what that is. Imagine life for others without you in it. You'll find you're irreplaceable...that there is only one you, and no one can do what you can do. You'd be surprized to learn that.

stay with positive people and read good books on this subject. A good church group wouldn't hurt. Life is tough but, you need to beleive in yourself and not worry about the small stuff and that comes with experience.
