I have come to realize I have low self confidence. This just repeated some things I already heard, but I’m making a promise to myself to try these 8 tips. I even sat up straighter while listening

I’m really starting to realize that in order for me to be happy, I have to actually work towards everything I want. It’s not going to happen over night. I can’t keep giving up when the going gets tough.

Reflections
I must remain positive. Focus my energy on what’s important to achieving my desires. That I must look confident, being mindful of my posture, my smile and conversations. I must compliment myself. Let go of the negative but also find a positive way to outcome the challenges I am facing.

Hmmm usually I hear at least two or three of these things: good posture, smile, push out and negative thoughts to name a few. However, to hear this entire list made me feel good and I may even record may accomplishments from day to day. But the one thing I really need to work on is taking control of my life, regardless of what people think.

Eight Tips on Self Confidence
The speaker was so self-confident that he thought he could effectively communicate right steps to self confidence in three minutes. Too fast means too ineffective.

Choosing ignorance
It stuck out to me that he said one could ignore the trials or stand up to them. I often forget that not choosing is a choice. What seems like a safe non-commitment is actually a commitment and is effecting my future. If I am making a choice regardless, although scarier, I will choose to face the trials and challenges head on.

I really did not care for this lesson at all. I won’t critique it point-for-point, but it was not my cup of tea. YMMV. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Goal setting
To be the best I can be I should write down a couple goals to work towards. If I have something that I know I need to get to I can have security and feel safe knowing that there is going to be something for me in the future.

I’m the school president so when I feel nervous it reflects in our school. But when I’m confident it gives others the chance to look up to me and feel better about their work. (Knowing that they are following someone that they can look up to)

safe place
I've never really had a place that felt like it was my home and in my safe place that's what I have it's just me sitting by a window cuddled up in warm blankets and on my lap is my cat Twister. We are home, we are safe and we are happy.

Take control of your self-confidence!
I loved all these steps and wrote them in my journal. Just a week ago I would take breaks by jumping on Facebook and Instagram or scanning Amazon for things I really don’t need. I would often leave feeling worn-out, less-than, and un-productive. However, replacing those types of breaks with meditations and short exercises has started to strengthen my mind and body. I feel like I’m adding to my well-being instead of unconsciously diminishing it! Because I’ve taken control in what I’m “feeding” my body, mind and heart, I feel confident, strong, and ready to get back to studies! ☺️👊✨

What a great way to start the day
Reflecting on my accomplishments by writing them down will encourage and strengthen me. Having good posture shows that I care about myself and I’m ready for anything. Controlling myself displays my stability and self-respect. Little steps make a big difference.

Self-confidence is important.
Self-confidence isn't just have a good self esteem, it's also assess the importance of all the things and the people around you. And just choose what it's better for your own health.

I felt like I needed this. I find that I am always doubting myself on the littlest things. I fear what others may think of me sometimes. I really need to stop worrying and thinking negative thoughts. I should focus more on what I have to get done and think positively, and I'll be okay.

SELF-CONFIDENCE
I have good self-confidence....maybe sometimes too much, maybe I’m over confident. However, I strive to overcome all the put downs by family and loved ones. That tends to break my confidence. I do wonder sometimes, how I made it this far with all the negative vibrations around me. 🥴 🤣😂🤣

Self-confidence is something I need to do. Here’s a transcript of the 8 ways Everett said to do so. 1. Record your accomplishments. 2. Let your body language introduce you: good posture, eye contact, smile. Maintain these to feel more confident. Mimic the stance of a confident person 3. Challenge yourself. Work outside your comfort zone. 4. Be positive- flush negative thoughts away. 5. Pay attention to more important things- focus on others. Put your attention to other people around you. 6. Be ready for anything. Be ready to face anything. 7. Compliment yourself. Appreciate how great you. 8. Take control. Be aggressive when it comes to doing the things you need to do

Be CONFIDENT
Work outside your comfort zone. Do not be afraid. Do not be afraid to fail. If you do fail, try it again until you succeed. You will never know until you do it. LIFE IS SHORT Face the challenges that come with it. Always be ready. If you are ready, you will not fear. Trust yourself. Fly and soar! Sky is not the limit. Nothing is IMpossible... I M possible! Control what you can control. The rest, offer it to God. He will never abandon you. He rebuked the wind and the waves when his apostles were afraid and He shut the mouth of the lion when Daniel was in the pit. He is all-powerful. Be the steering wheel and let God be the driver in your life. Trust Him.

A little disappointed
I realize that this is the first self-confidence session I’ve listened to, but I really expected more than an 8-item list of things I should do. I’ve had a successful career for the past 25 years and hardly lack self-confidence , but have come to start doubting myself when I had to start managing a team much younger than myself. THAT’s when the self-doubt started rolling in.
