Build Self Confidence

1. Dress Sharp
Although clothes don’t make the man, they certainly affect the way he feels about himself. No one is
more conscious of your physical appearance than you are. When you don’t look good, it changes the
way you carry yourself and interact with other people. Use this to your advantage by taking care of
your personal appearance. In most cases, significant improvements can be made by bathing and
shaving frequently, wearing clean clothes, and being cognizant of the latest styles.
This doesn’t mean you need to spend a lot on clothes. One great rule to follow is "spend twice as
much, buy half as much". Rather than buying a bunch of cheap clothes, buy half as many select, high
quality items. In long run this decreases spending because expensive clothes wear out less easily and
stay in style longer than cheap clothes. Buying less also helps reduce the clutter in your closet.
2. Walk Faster
One of the easiest ways to tell how a person feels about herself is to examine her walk. Is it slow?
tired? painful? Or is it energetic and purposeful? People with confidence walk quickly. They have
places to go, people to see, and important work to do. Even if you aren’t in a hurry, you can increase
your self confidence by putting some pep in your step. Walking 25% faster will make to you look and
feel more important.

3. Good Posture
Similarly, the way a person carries herself tells a story. People with slumped shoulders and lethargic
movements display a lack of self confidence. They aren’t enthusiastic about what they’re doing and
they don’t consider themselves important. By practicing good posture, you’ll automatically feel more
confident. Stand up straight, keep your head up, and make eye contact. You’ll make a positive
impression on others and instantly feel more alert and empowered.
4. Personal Commercial
One of the best ways to build confidence is listening to a motivational speech. Unfortunately,
opportunities to listen to a great speaker are few and far between. You can fill this need by creating a
personal commercial. Write a 30-60 second speech that highlights your strengths and goals. Then
recite it in front of the mirror aloud (or inside your head if you prefer) whenever you need a confidence
boost.
5. Gratitude
When you focus too much on what you want, the mind creates reasons why you can’t have it. This
leads you to dwell on your weaknesses. The best way to avoid this is consciously focusing on
gratitude. Set aside time each day to mentally list everything you have to be grateful for. Recall your
past successes, unique skills, loving relationships, and positive momentum. You’ll be amazed how
much you have going for you and motivated to take that next step towards success.
6. Compliment other people
When we think negatively about ourselves, we often project that feeling on to others in the form of
insults and gossip. To break this cycle of negativity, get in the habit of praising other people. Refuse to
engage in backstabbing gossip and make an effort to compliment those around you. In the process,
you’ll become well liked and build self confidence. By looking for the best in others, you indirectly
bring
