Being self confident is one of the most important aspects of Personality Development.

Self-confidence, as the name implies, is one’s own confidence in one’s abilities. It plays a gigantic role in the development of an individual’s personality.

Each of us is born with some unique qualities that can be developed but lack of self-confidence hinders this process. The feeling of not being good enough, when faced with criticism, acts as a deterrent to the development of one’s personality.

Being self-confident not only helps in facing challenges but also helps in dealing with them successfully and emerging a winner in the end!

Here are some tips which would surely help you boost your self-confidence!

1. Stop that negative blabbering in head - Having negative self-talk running through your mind makes you believe that you are no good. So, STOP that! Give yourself positive affirmations and cheer yourself up.
2. Explore the areas you are good at - Every person has strengths and talents. Try to explore yours! Recognizing what you are good at and polishing those skills will help you to build confidence in your own abilities.
3. Stop imitating others - Be yourself. Imitating others serves no purpose. Rather, try to focus and work on your strengths in order to succeed in life.
4. Set some goals in life - Set goals and do the needful to achieve them. Learn to play a musical instrument or painting a piece of art. Even small goals can be very satisfying and help you gain self-confidence.
5. Give yourself a pat on the back - Don’t seek external validation to make you feel good about yourself. Congratulate yourself on small/big wins!

Remember, that you are the master of your own story, so make sure you write every chapter with confidence and enthusiasm!
