Building Self - confidence


Building confidence is very much essential in one’s life. If you are not confident it can cause a lot of discomfort and may even prove detrimental to your career and life. A confident person usually stands tall, is proud about himself and is happy in life. He can smile and has no doubts whatsoever regarding his capabilities. There are scores of causes for which people want to build confidence. It could range from being able to talk in public to make one’s life more happy and satisfied.
Lacking confidence can be harmful in many ways. It can limit your risk taking ability. Thereby, a person never tries out anything new and ends up stagnant at his position. It could also cause huge personal problems in your life. It is to overcome such problems that many people wish to build up self confidence. A person might be completely aware about how to boost his confidence, but when low on self esteem will never be able to implement them. The very ideas that might boost his confidence cant be implemented because he lags the confidence!
Start with small steps like having a smile on your face. Smile breaks down many walls. People around you react well and also like to be with you. Smiling also sets many positive emotions in your body and mind. Also another important thing is to shun the criticism that is not relevant. All of us would like to feel better about ourselves.
Unfortunately, some do it by criticizing others. This is not fair. One should judge oneself entirely based on the work and deeds one performs, the goal he/she achieves and the character he sticks to. You have to progress because of what you are and not because other people don’t. Never compare yourself with anyone else.
