How to Boost up your Self- Confidence

"One important key to success is self-confidence. An important key to self-confidence is preparation"   - Arthur Ashe.

Self-confident people are admired by others and inspire confidence in others. . Self-confident people tend to see their lives in a positive light even when things aren't going so well, and they are typically satisfied with and respect themselves.

Wouldn't it be amazing to have this kind of self-confidence, every day of the week? Guess what? You can.

5 Ways to Boost Up Self-Confidence

1. Stay away from negativity and bring on the positivity. 

    

Be positive, even if you're not feeling it quite yet. Put some positive things into your interactions with others and hit the ground running, excited to begin your next project. Stop focusing on the problems in your life and instead begin to focus on solutions and making positive changes.

2. Help someone else

Helping someone else often enables us to forget about ourselves and to feel grateful for what we have. It also feels good when you are able to make a difference for someone else.

3.Change your body language and image

This is where posture, smiling and eye contact and speech slowly come into play. Just the simple act of pulling your shoulders back gives others the impression that you are a confident person. Smiling will not only make you feel better, but will make others feel more comfortable around you. 

4.Visualize yourself as you want to be

Visualization is the technique of seeing an image of yourself that you are proud of, in your own mind. When we struggle with low self-confidence, we have a poor perception of ourselves that is often inaccurate. Practice visualizing a fantastic version of yourself, achieving your goals.

5. Be prepared 

Learn everything there is to know about your field, job, presentation--whatever is next on your "to conquer" list. If you are prepared, and have the knowledge to back it up, your self-confidence will soar.
