As a kid, I struggled with confidence. I was extremely shy and never wanted to partake in any activity that I thought I might fail at. My dad always told me to never say the word “can’t.” As an adult, I am now listening to his advice. I know he is happy about that.
Do you want to build your confidence?
Try new things outside your comfort zone.
Connect to the Divine through meditation and/or nature.
Practice feeling grateful for what you have to offer the world.
Become aware of when you say the word “can’t” and transform the statement to “I can if…”
Surround yourself with people that inspire you.
Take baby steps towards your goals.
Talk to yourself in the mirror and tell yourself how awesome you are.
Be open to hearing constructive feedback from others and using that feedback to improve.
Try one of these ideas to focus on each week and see how your confidence level rises. Confidence doesn’t increase overnight and sometimes we feel really confident and the next day we don’t. It’s an ebb and flow, but you are still climbing the ladder of growth. Every hard day occurs to teach you something.
