Self-confidence is freedom from doubt, belief in yourself and your abilities. It is the difference between feeling unstoppable and feeling scared out of your wits. Your perception of yourself has an enormous impact on how others perceive you. Perception is reality — the more self-confidence you have, the more likely it is you’ll succeed. Self-confidence can be developed if you are willing to greet all challenges as steps that get you closer to the future that you want. Self-confidence is the memory of success.
How many times have you surprised yourself and did things you didn’t think you could do? Probably many, right? The truth is you are bigger than any obstacle or challenge. You have a certain amount of self-confidence already within you, the trick, though, is to use any challenge that you come across to help you grow and expand on that self-confidence, in other words, use it to ‘impress yourself.’
Set a short-term goal to achieve, once that goal is reached, take a moment to consider what you did, and you will see immediately that your efforts make a difference. Set a new and slightly more challenging goal, and reach or exceed it as well. You will find that accomplishments grow and multiply. Practice achievement and you will boost your self-confidence.
In many ways, self-confidence can be described as self-respect and enjoyment of life's challenges. And ‘impressing yourself’ simply put, means doing something that makes you happy and proud of your achievement thereby building your memories of success. As Thomas Carlyle said, ‘nothing builds self-esteem and self-confidence like accomplishment.’ So, what have you done today to impress yourself?
