3 Tips to Boost Confidence

Eat Healthier

I love this tip. If you read on any website this is one of the top tips they provide to help you maintain confidence, happiness, and overall good wellbeing. You may be tired of hearing that eating healthier can truly help bring more positive into your life, but it’s true! When you snack on oranges, blueberries and other fruits you’ll soon find that you feel healthier which helps boost your mind and then works to keep that confidence high no matter what life tosses at you. It’s all of those vitamins found in fruits that simply work wonders on your self-esteem. I am convinced.

Sleep Often

Sure you may not be able to get a super deep sleep every night because you’re feeling the weight of the world on your shoulders, but you can learn to sleep often. When you have a set bedtime and wake-up time, your body gets used to being in a routine and in turn, you can have more control over your thoughts. When you’re well-rested, you think better and your confidence will simply stay higher due to the fact that you’ve taken care of your mental well-being by getting adequate sleep. It’s a win/win situation when you learn to sleep regularly on a routine schedule.

Let it Go

There are so many things that could go wrong, will go wrong stop thinking about it. There are so many people who can be good to you or bad to you, stop thinking about it. There are so many ways in which this world can turn you into a low self-esteemed person, stop thinking about it. When you hear things that make you feel less confident, remove those words from your mind. If someone is making you feel less than worthy, you have to get control of your mind to let go of those words. Think of that childhood saying, “sticks and stones may break my bones but words will never hurt me”. We all know words hurt, but if you’re dealing with a meanie, then learn to not hear them when they speak ill towards you.

Building Confidence Helps Boost Income

Self-Confidence and self-esteem go hand in hand, these days many people are coming back to their home to find a way to make a residual income from home. What many people who turn to work at home don’t realize is that your self-confidence can make or break your income levels. Let’s discuss how self-confidence increases income:

Dominate Element

Self-confidence and the ability to express yourself confidently in email, a phone conversation or in-person will lead to impressing the person you are speaking to, even if you have no idea what you are talking about if you have that firm handshake, that stand up tall and confident even-level voice when speaking to the potential client; they are more likely to hire you.

Desire to Hire

When you have a high level of self-confidence you have more of a desire to get hired, which in turn allows employers to desire to hire you. An employer wants to see that they are about to hire someone who is confident in their skills and ability to work on tasks set forth for them to complete. Having self-confidence will boost your ability to make others desire to hire you.

Emotions Left Behind

Most self-confident people learn to think with logic versus emotions, when you are able to have emotions left behind and show this to an employer, you are a more desirable asset to the company. Employers want to hire people who have a level head combined with good logical and reasoning skills. Self-confident people are less likely to get involved in any emotional drama that working environments could have.

Make More Money

When researched, it was shown that those with a higher level of self-confidence actually earned more income than those that struggle with confidence. Someone who is confident in their skills and abilities will make more money because they won’t settle for an income less than deserved. When you go into a job interview confident of your abilities and your financial worth then you leave there making more money because you refuse to accept any salary offer below the reasonable going rate for your abilities.

Confidence is ours to be in control of, it isn’t something anyone else should have the right to take away from us. If you truly feel like your tough times are too much to handle and that perhaps you can’t cope, I would suggest talking to your doctor. Don’t be embarrassed to speak up to a professional who can guide you towards feeling more confident with yourself and life. We all have tough times, but there are people here to help, just speak up.

Mental health is so important. I hope that if you or someone you love is suffering from feeling less than worthy that they will reach out to someone for help. It is okay to feel down and out, but it’s not okay to live that way every day.
