tips on how you can increase and build your self confidence.
Self-confidence Quotes To Build and Boost Your Self-Confidence
1. Be Honest With Yourself
To be more confident you
should to be honest with yourself by asking yourself questions such as: Who I
am inside? What are my dreams and goals in life? What I like and dislike about myself?,….etc.
Also you need to have an open mind to deal with the right and the wrong, and
the ability to see things realistically and objectively. It not easy to be
honest with yourself but, this is an important step toward the confident personality
that you want to build.

yourself, you will feel ashamed or embarrassed about who you are, you will feel
guilty about believing that you deserve good thing, will feel unworthy of the
acceptance of others, and the worst is you will never be confident in yourself.
So accept yourself as you are, love yourself, believe and confidence in
yourself .you will get confidence, success and happiness only when you
reconcile with yourself.
In other words, Self-acceptance is the key to
self-confidence.
3. Don't Compare Yourself to
Others
When I was comparing
myself to others people usually I took their strengths and compared them with
my weaknesses. In this unfair comparison
I was always the loser, and as a result, that make me jealous envious and
depressed. Now Instead of
comparing myself to other people I have created the habit of comparing myself
to myself. This habit helped me to discover myself again and convinced me that I
can't be anyone but me, and no one can be me. So stop comparing yourself to
others and you will: begin
to discover what’s truly important to you, suffer far less from those energy
draining feelings of jealousy and inadequacy, and you will feel good about yourself without having to think less
of other people.
Remember this: Don’t compare yourself with anyone in this world
If you compare, you are insulting yourself. It’s better to be the original you
than to be a copy of somebody else. Believe in yourself and people will be
forced to believe in you.
4. Be Positive
In order to build self-confidence,
you must get rid of all self-defeating thoughts. Negative thoughts bring you
down and lower your confidence level. If you want to enjoy more
self-confidence, you have to be positive in your life, that won't solve your
problems but it will make you feel better and will help you to discover the
right way to do that. As Zig Ziglar said, “Positive thinking will let you do
everything better than negative thinking will”.
5. Improve Your Look
Try to make a change for
the better in your appearance, it really will give you a good feeling inside,
and will make you proud about yourself. It is possible to look better than how
you do now. Moreover, try to be the best version of yourself.
At the last, if you don't have
confidence in yourself, no one will have confidence in you. Self-confidence is
priceless. It cannot be given or easily acquired. So you have to work hard to
get it, accept yourself, believe in yourself, face your fears do all the things
that will help you to increase your self confidence. Building your self
confidence is your responsibility
