STRATEGIES FOR BUILDING YOUR SELF-CONFIDENCE


1. Make building self-confidence a habit through practice, and not only when you are vulnerable.

2. Imitate a behavior of confidence including posture, actions and thoughts as if it is done.

3. Be yourself, be flexible, sensitive to others, don’t be inhibited and don’t stick to a well-studied path.

4. Make the most of your mistakes and then ignore them.

5. If you fail, no matter, try again, fail again.

6. Disregard the mistake, but learn from it and get on with the business at hand.

7. Limit the self-blame.

8. Don’t fuel your internal voice and replace it by an encouraging voice.

9. Don’t torment yourself with criticism and just allow the blame to fade away.

10. Be kind to yourself by giving yourself treats.

11. Don’t behave as if pleasure will be destroyed by use.

12. Don’t do tasks only out of guilt or duty.

13. Do not turn effort into drudgery and purpose into pointlessness.


14. Don’t be a martyr.
