How to gain Confidence
There are times in life where sometimes you feel like you can't do something for the lack of confidence. It holds you back constantly and you wonder if anything will go your way.
Here are ten pointers to help boost Your confidence and give you something to work with.
*10: Visualizing yourself as who you want to be.
When I try to visualize myself I usually try to visualize anything that I have always wanted and never got in my lifetime. Maybe it's a new car or maybe it's something you have always wanted to try but it was too expensive for your tastes.
*9: Believing in yourself when the going get's tough.
Telling yourself you can do this and nothing is going to stop you be one of the things I try to do when ever I end up trying something that scares me like social media. But I am trying out twitter and working my self up there and I did receive five followers so far and it shows how doing just one of these points works for you.
*8:Question whether you inner critic is valid.
This is another thing I have struggled with for a long time but one of the things to do that I am going to start trying for here on out. Look at your self in the mirror and ask that inner critic if there is any evidence that will back it up against you in doing something.
*7:Inspirational quotes
One of the things I have been doing is doing a little Search engine look out for quotes from people I had admired and finding the best one to always start out my day with more intensity than the last quote I had found. I usually go for something either funny or really uplifting.
*6: Take on challenges that seem impossible to you
Overcoming fear and the thought of rejection is one challenge for me I had to take on for years on end. Before I came here I used to be so negative that I would always think every human on this earth was only in it for themselves. But after the accident and meeting new faces over at that hospital I started to grow more confident in what I have going and gained a type of circle of friends that you would only gain in a once in a lifetime event.
*5:Set your self up to win.
It stands to reason to always count on your abilities when you try to establish yourself as a winner. The best ability I have is when I was in 5th grade I was taking a thing that is sort of like a SAT test for us Yankees here. I was given a reading test and I was somehow able to score a collage level comprehension into everything that was given to me to read. It just came so natural to me I never thought it was that big of an achievement until two years ago when I read an article of law to my nephew about I think doing CPR and liability on each person that does CPR as an act of good faith. That is my ability.
* 4:Helping others in need.
This one is pretty self- explanatory but I figure I should include it here since you tend to see it a lot. But It is helpful because it makes you feel important and it helps you make a difference in peoples lives here.
*3:Self management.
There is an old saying that goes something like this. In order to help others you must first help yourself. So true in a lot of ways. Making sure you are in the right mind set and taking breaks when you need to are a few things I do when I am blogging about something here or my website.
*2:Learn to say no
There is a few people I know that had this trouble for a long time and it is one of those that is very tough to break. But just remember when you say no to a person it is not the end of the world you just want to have them back off and leave it be.
*1:You are you. Not a movie star.
What I mean by this is comparing yourself to someone you know. Just because they have success one way doesn't mean it's your way. You are unique in your way. That is one thing that unites us here today. We all have some stories to tell about our journey here and our struggles and how we managed to be where we are today. I think for today's call of action is I want to hear from you WHAT DO YOU DO WHEN YOU HAVE LOW CONFIDENCE IN YOURSELF OR EVEN WHAT STRUGGLES YOU HAVE HAD AND HOW YOU HAVE MANAGED TO DEAL WITH IT. Be sure to leave it in the comments below and I will see you on the next post.
For today's post I typed up the words How to gain confidence in the search engine google 2nd top page online.

Lack of confidence can hold you back from your goals.
In the past I would always ask myself: Whats the worst that can happen?
Then move forward.
Good post.
Good evening my friend, I enjoyed your blog. What I do each and every morning when I open my eyes, after thinking the great spirit God for another day of life. I always say out loud he that is in me is greater than he that's in all the world, and I can do all things. When I get frustrated, I always tell myself once again saying it out loud, I will not stop, I will not give up no matter what, now this is the big one that I do each and every day. I am healthy happy end strong, powerful successful and Rich. I see through this falling fading anti Society. I see the what is the essence of all things. I no longer see in words I see in pictures, I use integrated thinking in all I do. I have no fear, I have no doubts, I only have strong faith in myself, in all that I do. May you have a most successful week.
Great points concerning confidence! Confidence all the time is difficult but with these steps you can be more often.
