Improving Self-Confidence

Improving Self-Confidence




Self- confidence is something that people find difficult to have. Contrary to what most people think, self confidence is not something that only the gifted and blessed have.


Improving Self-Confidence is about self-development and self-improvement. It’s about the need to acknowledge weaknesses and at the same time strengthening them. It’s about loving and accepting ourselves as we are.


To attain confidence, it is important to believe in and be content with ourselves. To develop a sense of self-acceptance; self- acceptance is about accepting not only the good things in life, but also the shortcomings.



Aside from self-acceptance what else can you do to achieve self-confidence?


• Understanding thoughts and emotions- By becoming aware of our emotions and behaviors, we become able to overcome and correct them. Do It Now.



• Self discipline. Changing attitude and behavior, or even perspective might take a while. Change does not happen overnight. We need to gather enough knowledge and start learning and practicing the skills that we would like to improve and develop. Self-discipline is about how we make sure that our goals and vision are translated in action and achieved. We need self discipline to make sure that we do not back-out just because of disappointments and setbacks.


• Have a clear vision on what you want to happen in life. To be able to move forward with that life vision, it is important to have clarity. Seeing what we want to have, in a clear image, encourages us to work for it.


• The choice is ours. We can choose what we want to experience. Doing something that’s important for ourselves, something we love, gives us enough confidence to continue with what we’ve started.


• Commitment and trusting. To we need to commit ourselves to the process.



We may also have to develop some other characteristics, like self awareness, which is our readiness to look at our past, accept it and the same goes for the present.




Building self-confidence can’t be done in just a snap. It should be a never-ending process, a life-time journey. Sometimes, we can only say that we are fully masterful of our life if we have reached our dreams and goals. Building self-confidence can help use with growth and eventually with success. We just need to continue with our dreams and be patient.
