1. RULE OUT NEGATIVE THOUGHTS: Negative thoughts are the main driving force behind low self-esteem and lack of confidence and they must be eliminated in order for you to breakaway from the captivating chain of self distrust or lack of confidence.

Now, the bottom line is...

Nursing negative thoughts, always have a way of bringing you and your self confidence down. Which is the strongest reason why you should kiss-it-off.

Listen up...

Words like, "am not good enough" "I can never do it" and other negative driven words must not cross your mind. If you ever wish to be confident.

2. NEUTRALIZE NEGATIVE THOUGHTS WITH POSITIVE ONES: For you to be confident and have a high self esteem, you have to device a mechanism for counteracting or neutralizing negative thoughts with positive ones.

Because, the more you refute negative thoughts with positive ones, the lesser you nurse them.

And the lesser you nurse negative thoughts, the higher your chances of getting confident and having a high self esteem.

Therefore, when you ever you feel like, you can't do it, just assure yourself that you've got all it takes to get it done.

This is an act of being confident!

3. GET FOR YOURSELF SOME POSITIVE FRIENDS: As humans, so many things have a lot of impacts on us.

Friends are not excluded as they also have so many effects on us.

Friends either motivate you or demotivate you.

If they demotivate you? Then, you've got to get yourself a new set of friends.

Because, there are friends who do nothing but try everything within their power to destroy, crush, or annihilate your self image. (your idea of yourself or how you view yourself)

How?

They easily archive their goal by constantly talking you down and in the process, make you have a delusional view of yourself as inferior.

When they succeed in making you see yourself as inferior, you're doomed 'cause you won't stand a chance in hell to be confident and have a high self esteem again.

Unless you figure out a way to stop seeing yourself as inferior. Only then, you'll lead a confident life.

Listen up...

The surest way out, is to get yourself a new set of positive friends that will not down-talk you in any way or send negative vibes running down your spine but help motivate, encourage and make you feel loved and confident.

4. FIND WHAT YOU'RE GOOD AT: You need to feel good about yourself by finding out and doing what you're really good at.

Are you good in singing or dancing?

What talent do you have?

Whatever it is that suits your soul and you're really good at, can you try and do it often?

'Cause it'll definitely make you feel good about yourself and when you feel good about yourself, you'll get more confident.

Do this:

Find out what you can do best and figure out ways you can use it to help others or advance your career. Then, watch the magic.

5. LEARN TO TAKE COMPLIMENTS: Let's face it....

Taking or accepting comments is a total sign of confidence. Therefore, you have to learn how to handle genuine complements.

If you feel you don't have many good qualities that you should be complemented on, you're bound to always feel awkward when someone pays you a genuine compliment.

Feeling awkward when someone pays you a compliment, is a clear sign of lack of confidence and low self esteem.

You'll be happy if you could find a way to stop feeling awkward when someone pays you a compliment.

That's the strongest reason why you should learn to take compliments.

But It's simple. Just do this:

Smile and say "Thank you" if you don't know what else to say instead of depreciating the compliment.


6. BE LIVELY: Listen up...

Be lively; smile alot, make eye contacts and keep your body language in check.

Why?

Because, you'll be passing a great message.

And I can almost hear you thinking...

What message are you talking about?

Well, everyone around you, will loudly hear your message ringing in their heads saying...

"I am confident!" "I am lovable!!" "I am competent!!!"

Super sexy isn't?

Am sure you wish to be a changed person, a confident person and a person with high self esteem.

If that's true, then you've got to be lively at all times...

I mean; smile often, make eye contacts and keep your body language in check.

It isn't gonna be easy at first but try this:

Fake it even if you're scared and it will eventually become part of you.

7. DON'T COMPARE YOURSELF TO OTHERS: Do you often compare yourself to others?

Millions of people like you, who are so bent on comparing themselves to others, end-up feeling bad about: themselves, their failures, their inabilities and so on...

Therefore, they get intimidated by their shortcomings and they end-up becoming less confident and develop a low self esteem.

I guess, you don't want to continue like this...

The surest way out of such a mess is to desist from comparing yourself to other people.

Listen up..

We all have our own flaws, we all are not perfect and I know you must have heard this a thousand times over.

But the truth is, bearing this in mind, will definitely help you accept your weaknesses and if you do, you'll never compare yourself to others.

Hence, getting a total boost in your confidence and self esteem.

8. GO FOR IT: Yes you heard me right...

Go for it, go-ahead take the risk and do that, which you always wanted to do but you were too scared of doing.

Do you want to go for your preferred job interview?

Do you want to ask your crush out?

Go out of your comfort zone and actualize your dreams.

Because, you'll always feel good and proud of yourself if you make it happen and that will also go a long way in boosting your confidence and self esteem.

Listen...

One trial could be holding you back from actualizing your dreams. Why not try your luck? Besides, there's no harm in trying.

So, just do it!

9. BE PATIENCE: I know you want to be a confident person.

I know you are sick and tired of feeling unloved, awkward and incompetent.

I also know that you want to get over that feeling as soon as possible.

But the truth is that...

You just got to be kind to yourself by being patience.

You've to take things easy and follow all the confidence boosting techniques.

Low self esteem, is so much attached to negative thoughts.

You don't expect your negative thoughts to change in a nick of time.

So, you have to be patient.

10. WORK ON YOURSELF: Are you having this delusional view of yourself as unattractive?

Then, know that you'll never get a chance in hell to be confident in your life.
Otherwise, look for a way to get rid of such thoughts.

Such thoughts are considered to be negative and like all negative thoughts, your confidence will always be down whenever you nurse them.

Unless you figure out the magical spell that will set you free, you'll be damned to always see yourself as inferior whenever you're around others.

That doesn't sound good right?

Now, what if a tell you that there is a way out. And that way is to work on yourself.

Listen...

Work on yourself, try to look more attractive and have enough sleep.

Because, by doing so, you'll get that positive mindset you've been looking for which is also the number one criteria to be confident and have a high self esteem.

11.BE GRATEFUL: Reminding ourselves of the good things we have, helps to put everything in order.

It helps us start each day with hearts full of joy and in a positive frame of mind!

Therefore...

Take a moment every single day *when you first wake up is good* to think about the things you are grateful for.
