confidence?

Question

how do you raise your confidence/self esteem in yourself?

Answer 1

Love yourself. Okay, that's a predictable answer, but I'll elaborate on it. You should take an honest assessment of yourself. Start with your weaknesses, then your strengths. And I'm talking about your apperance here. What are your best features? How can you make them better? What are your worse features? Do they affect your confidence? Why are they such a problem? Can you fix or change them?

My opinion is a bit atypical, but I feel that if someone is unhappy or uncomfortable with anything about themselves, they shouldn't try to live with it or overlook it, they should try to fix or improve it if possible. Once you feel good about the way you look, you're on the road to confidence.

Repeat all of the above for your personality. What are some nice things about your behaviour? Are you a good listener? Honest? Trustworthy? Do you have a good sense of humor? Are you talented? As soon as you've identified each of your strengths, run with them. Get snobby in your mind with it. If you already lack confidence, a little internalized conceit won't hurt.

Answer 2

I would say challenge your self. Alot of people have low self esteem is because of what others told them. You really have to prove to yourself that your worth something. So depending on what your not confident about, just challenge that area and succeed. Once you succeed that confidence will increase because you have proof behind your faith in yourself. I hope that helps. Take care and god bless.

Answer 3

Try making a list of things you are proud of or things you like about yourself. Then always think of those when you are not feeling confident.

Answer 4

Don't listen to what people think and write cute little notes all over the house (drawers, mirrors, countertops.) Just to remind yourself of how awesome you are.

Answer 5

Start with small steps. Set a small goal and accomplish it then build to slightly harder ones, and accomplish those. Make sure they are small reachable goals and as you accomplish them, reward yourself. Also remember that you can achieve anything that you want to if you work at it. You have talents and skills, and the ability to improve them, and to learn new ones. YOU CAN DO IT!

Answer 6

You do things: try things, fail, succeed, become good at things, and every success builds confidence.

Whenever you notice you are weak in a major area of your life in terms of confidence, go after that:)

Answer 7

You can of your Self-confidence.You want to be confident and feel confident, but what if you're starting with little or no confidence? How do you get from Point A to Point B? True self-confidence isn't an overnight acquisition. It takes dedication to realize you are a human being who is worthy of respect and love
