Ask questions:
Any time you find yourself worrying about something you haven’t done, or something you think you should have done, ask yourself positive questions.
Instead of thinking “I’m terrible for missing my friend’s birthday” think “What can I do to make my friend feel special?”
Or, instead of “Why can’t I ever seem to do things on time?” change it to “What can I change to better manage my time”
Creating positive questions will release the negative energies which have a tendency to pull down your self confidence.
Learn:
Accept that not everything works out the way we plan it. Decide to accept any mistakes and rejections as part of a learning curve that we all need to go through. Without mistakes, you can’t learn from your own experiences. Remember, experience builds confidence, so always learn as much as you can.
Write a list of every single thing you're good at, anything from clipping the dog’s toenails to putting up a shelf.
Take the time to sit and actually think about what you ARE good at and add them all to the list. You'll be surprised at how many things you end up jotting down, no matter how minor or trivial they may seem at the time.
Whenever you have a spare 5 minutes, or if you're feeling a little low, take the list out of your pocket and read it. This is a great little way to give yourself a nice confidence boost.
Help out:
There are lots of ways to help others, and feeling useful and helpful are great ways of building your confidence. Just make sure you do things because you WANT to do them.
You could call a good friend who may be down at the moment-even take them out for coffee, you will brighten both your days, or you could possibly help out at an old folks home or similar.
Knowing that people appreciate your help will boost your confidence for sure.
Show the way:
Think of the one thing you do best of all. Think long and hard about this one. Thought of something?
Now, find a discussion group or similar related to that topic and spread your wisdom by answering questions, offering advice or help to anybody needing it. If you can’t find a group, you could even start one yourself.
People will look up to you and that will give you all the more reason to feel confident about yourself.
