An easy way to build more self-confidence is to recognize and spend time with the good in yourself.
Pick one good thing that you like about yourself.
For example, you might like that you’re creative, or friendly, or athletic.
- Now, close your eyes and take a little time to take in this fact about yourself.
- But, watch for signs that you’re not taking it in.
- You might think: What about the things I don’t like about myself, or I’m not that way all the time?
- Stand up to yourself and softly say, It’s okay that I’m not this way all the time.
- That’s what it means to be human, or It’s okay that I have things about me that I don’t like.
- No human is perfect. Open yourself to being convinced of it.
Repeat this process several times each day and extend this to other good things about you.
