Becoming more confident is easier than you think. However, like all useful things, it will take some time. For a number of reasons, everyone can lose confidence in themselves. Follow the step-by-step instructions to gradually start believing in yourself.
Instructions
Step 1
Start journaling to better understand yourself. This will be the first step in building self-confidence. Start by spending at least one hour a day with a journal in a quiet environment. You can do this with a computer or laptop, or use a regular notebook.
Step 2
Ask yourself and write down specific questions in a column:
1. What do I want to achieve in my life?
2. Am I satisfied with my life?
3. Why don't I feel confident in myself?
4. What can I do to build more confidence?
4. By what means can I raise my self-confidence to a sufficient level?
5. What do I plan to achieve in one year or five, ten years?
Step 3
Reflect on your current accomplishments after answering these questions. What have you been able to do over the years? Graduated from university? Have you started a family? Won the competition? Have you created the best-selling game? Climbed the career ladder? Lived to the fullest? Everyone can boast of at least one or more of these achievements. This already shows that you have enough strength to confidently implement your plans! Just write down your thoughts in a diary using the key phrase "I have …" or "I have achieved …"
Step 4
Find a supportive community. It may include your closest relatives, friends or comrades on the Internet - everyone who is dear to you in one way or another. Make sure that if you tell these people about your problems, they will really treat them with understanding and try to help you gain more self-confidence and provide all the support you need.
Step 5
Try to diversify your activities. If you love to cook, change your daily menu, learn new recipes, cook new dishes every week. If you are fond of sports - improve yourself, strive for better results. You must set achievable goals and strive to achieve them. It superbly develops self-confidence and an unshakable will to live!
