Here
are 7 quick ways to boost your self-confidence levels
quickly and easily. You can use them where-ever you are and in
whatever situation you may face. Let's get stuck in straight-away,
here they are:
1)
No matter how you feel at this very moment, picture yourself in the
situation you want to be in. Really see yourself there in
your minds eye being successful. If you are going for an interview
picture yourself starting that job on the first day going into work
happy and confident. If it is success in sport you desire play a movie
through your mind of you scoring the winning goal, touchdown or points.
In each situation imagine how it feels to be in that situation and
hold those thoughts and feelings in your mind for as long as you can.
2)
If at anytime you find a negative thought creeping in to your mind,
and let's face it, it will happen. Deliberately and consciously
let go of that negative thought and immediately put a positive thought
into your mind. You might want to put a small photo in your wallet
that creates a positive emotion in your mind: a holiday snap, wedding
photo, successful business meeting or whatever. Each time you pull
it out it will be like flicking the switch from negative to positive.
3)
When faced with a problem, start to overcome it by first concentrating
on what qualities or positives you do have at your disposal.
It may be useful to write a list and make sure to include even the
obvious and seemingly trivial positive points that you do have going
for you. This will immediately take your focus off the negative thoughts
of the problem and onto your own positive abilities. Always remember:
'If you think you can, you can'.
4)
Do not give any problem or negative situation anymore credit than
it deserves. Do not build the problem up in your mind. Sometimes
we build up a problem into a much greater thing than it really is
through our fear of failure and worry. Realise the world will not
stop spinning if you don't solve the problem straight-away, it may
also pay to write the problem down so you can see it for what it actually
is...not what you have built it up to be.
5)
Find and develop your own set of affirmations that you can use and
repeat to yourself at times when you are feeling particularly low.
Repeating positive phrases with emotion can help change a negative
thought pattern to a positive one. Here is a good one to start with
especially if you are a Christian: ' I can do all things through christ
that strengthen me' a classic bible passage that really does instill
belief. Many more affirmations available through the link below.
6)
Take a long hard look at your abilities and skills, assess them and
their strength. Once you have done this raise your estimation
of them all by at least 15%. After all the whole is greater than the
sum of it's parts and it is important to develop a healthy belief
in yourself.
7)
If you have any sort of religous belief then relax and remember the
power of the God that you believe in is all around you. Allow
his power to flow through you freely and raise your self confidence
through him. If God is for you who can possibly defeat you?
So there
you have it, 7 quick tips to boost your self-confidence.
Basically you should be trying to fill your mind as often as possible
with positive thoughts so that they ooze out of your mind. These
tips above when practised regularly will help create a pattern of
positive thoughts which will become a self-perpetuating cycle
and a habit....this is the real key to boosting your own self-confidence!
