Being self confident is all about being energetic and having a positive approach of accomplishing a task. Its all about how you feel from your inside when you are upto something new. In this regard, I have listed some of the actions that might help you achieve positive results.
1) Move your body
Do some hard work. Let your body sweat. If you have time, then join gym or else exercise at home. If that's not possible try and do it some other way, like walk through stairs instead of taking elevators. Walk or run down to the market instead of driving. The basic idea is to make your body do some physical labor because when you do some physical activity, your body sweats and then you feel better. The more you feel better the more confident you are. Exercising helps relax your mind and body, and with a relaxed mind you can have a clear and bold thinking. It helps you stay fit and confident and keeps anger and frustation away and let the positive energy flow in your body.
2) Stay well groomed
Whatever you wear reflects your taste, sense and style. So always have a look at what you wear before going out. People are more likely to perceive an idea about you based on your dressing style. So, whenever you are considering how to dress up, ask youself the following questions :
- Who am I?
- What is the occassion?
- What role am I playing?
- How do I want to be perceived?
Its not like that you need to strictly follow the latest style statement. Infact it's all about being in the proper attire for a particular environment.
3) Stay relaxed and breathe
Proper breathing helps in blood flow. So always take deep breaths whenever you feel stressed out. You can also try belly breathing. Just put your hands on your tummy and breathe from your belly. Let your belly rise and fall with your breathe. This technique is very effective and helps achieve positive results.
4) Maintain discipline
A disciplined person always has a positive approach in life. He never runs out of time or is never late. And being disciplined is a major key to success. If you follow a proper schedule, work neat and clean, and stay focussed on your present, then it will definitely have a positive impact on your professional and personal relationships.
5) Help others
If you can try and help people who are in need in your possible way. Your small contribution might mean a lot to them. It will earn you more respect and by the end you'll feel really happy and blessed.
If you follow these steps properly, you are more likely to uplift your self confidence.
