Gaining Self Confidence In 3 Easy Steps

Believe it or not but gaining self confidence is much easier then you think. Some people seem to have self confidence naturally but the truth is that they acquired it. Since they acquired, it means that you can acquire it as well. You just have to know how to get it. Here are 3 easy steps in gaining self confidence.

1. Start small.

Gaining self confidence is best learned by starting out with the small things. For instance, if you have a hard time introducing yourself to people start with just saying hello. This is what I started out doing to build my self confidence. Don’t worry about trying to converse with them. Just say hi. After a while this will become easy and then it’s time to go on to a small conversation. Just start small and increase from there.

2. Write a list of all your qualities.

It’s very easy to overlook your own qualities because you are so focused on all your perceived weaknesses. Write down as many as you can think of. Once you have done this, go to someone that is close to you and ask them to help you add to the list. They will tell you qualities about yourself that you didn’t even realize you had. Now the key here is to just write down what they say and don’t argue with them if you disagree. After you have this list completed, read it out loud everyday and reinforce in your own mind that you have loads of qualities to be self confident about.

3. Don’t let your mind be your worst enemy.

Gaining self confidence can be as simple as stopping your mind from thinking of all the things that could go wrong. What about all the things that could go right? If you let your thoughts run wild you will almost always give in to the worst of what you mind can come up with. Learn to control your thoughts and you will instantly see that you self confidence will increase.
