Some important tips for self confidence

BOOST YOUR SELF CONFIDENCE 

1.Get crystal clear on the things that truly matter to you.  If they’re not in your life, you need to bring them in.

2.Look at a great win or success you've experienced and give yourself credit for your part in it.  Recognizing your achievements is not egotistical, it’s healthy.

3.You have to keep your mind well fed, so write a list of 20 things that keeps your mind feeling nourished and make sure you’re giving them room in your life.

4.BE YOURSELF:Stop playing different roles and squeezing yourself into boxes based on what you think people expect you to act like.Always remember that being yourself will not only help you but others will also start liking it knowing that you are not a kind of "backstabber".

5.Next time you come up against a risk or a challenge, listen to what you tell yourself and look for a way that that inner dialog can be improved.  Ask yourself, “What would make this easier?”

6.Fear is a way of letting you know that you’re about to stretch yourself and grow your confidence.  That’s a good thing, so use it to take yourself forwards rather than run away.Let the thing you feared be the the ultimate game changer of your life

7.Imagine you’re visited by a successful, confident, attractive and vibrant version of you from the future, a version of you who’s everything you hope to be.  What do they want to tell you?

8.You need to be around people who make you feel like YOU, so spend more time with the people who support and encourage you and less with those who undermine you.

9.Shy with new people?  Not a problem, there’s nothing wrong with being shy and it doesn't mean you’re not confident.  Just don't over think it, start beating yourself up or thinking you’re less than because you’re shy – the more you think like that the worse it gets.
