Boost and Keep your Confidence

How to

What comes to mind when we talk about confidence? Most likely it is how people behave. Confident people are comfortable with themselves, can deal with any social situation, and seem to be always in control.But this is only one part of being confident. Most of what makes up confidence is what confidence allows you to achieve. Its about achieving your goals no matter how scared or anxious you may feel. Confident people know how to put up with these feelings and deal with their situation regardless.

Confidence

Body Language

Confident people seem to appear bigger than life”, which is reflected through their body language. Numerous studies have shown that body language is more important in how we perceive others than the words spoken. You wouldn’t believe a person saying “I can do it” whilst they are in a closed stance (such as with arms folded), and looking down at the floor.

You can use any universal expression of power chest lifted, head held high, arms either up or propped on the hips. By holding an open, expansive “power pose” for as little as two minutes, you

can actually change your body chemistry and become more confident.

Power Posing

Eye Contact

Practice eye contact with yourself, and remember to make warm and friendly eye contact with every person you are going to talk to today.

Warm up your smiling muscles by doing it

consciously. Remember, that

keeping smile on your face will exude

positivity while also sending a signal that

you are approachable.

Positive Affirmation

Repeat positive affirmation(s) at the moment you need. If possible, then in a loud and clear voice: I am confident! I am motivated! I am smart! I am irresistibly charming!

Breathing Exercise

Do a simple breathing exercise to relax your whole body, breathing in count 2 and breathing out count 6. When a person is relaxed, they breathe through their nose in a

slow, even and gentle way. Deliberately copying a relaxed breathing pattern calms the nervous system.
