Tips to develop confidence

Tips to develop confidence in you;

We make mistakes often and it is natural.. Even if your physical appearance or social skills are not what you wish they were, it should not stop you from being confident

·         Focus on your features to help distract you from those parts of yourself that you think are flawed. Do you always stay calm, cool and collected, even in hurried situations?

·         Think of the qualities that your  Role model displays, whether physical, emotional, moral, or spiritual. Work towards acquiring them.

·         Try not to focus negatively on what others think of you. Instead, focus more on what they think of themselves, and try to help them become happier and more confident.

·         Accept complement gracefully  Take it to heart and respond positively 

·         When you feel right about something, speak loudly and clearly and make eye contact with people.

·         People will judge you all the time, and usually  they may  misjudge you, so why bother trying to cater to their opinions ?

·         Eat a healthy diet and get enough exercise. Don't abuse your body, don't overload it, and don't deny it any of the things it needs.

·         Confidence comes from within. Take the time to reflect on your life and do some emotional maintenance. In order to be confident, you must value yourself and understand that your well-being is important.

·         Having good posture can actually make you feel more confident. Don't slouch or slump your shoulders. Make sure that your back is straight, your shoulders are square, and your chest is puffed out slightly Good posture also helps with deep breathing, which helps with feeling calm and relaxed.

·         Don't compare yourself with other people.

·         Listen to your inner monologue—your inner voice. In situations where you believe you lack confidence, realize that your inner voice is telling you negative things. You need to retrain that inner voice to be positive in those situations.

·         Speak positively at all times..

·         Slow down all of your movements including your walking speed. Quick movements and actions are the product of someone who is nervous and not in control.

·         Write down a detailed, thought-out list of values which are important to you

·         Be thankful for what you have. A lot of the times, at the root of insecurity and lack of confidence is a feeling of not having enough of something. Finding that inner peace will do wonders for your confidence.

·         Do something for yourself. Dye your hair, get that new look, have a treat that you enjoy, go on holiday....whatever you do, do it for yourself, do not worry what anyone else thinks about it.

·         Be yourself don't be afraid to ask questions!!!

·         When you look in the mirror don't look for flaws, instead smile and tell yourself you look pretty today.

·         Listen to an inspirational, or happy song. One that makes you feel good,

·          Above all if God can be with you guiding your footsteps with extreme care you are definitely a success--  nobody or nothing can stop you .

·         IF GOD BE FOR US WHO CAN BE AGAINST US?
