Let's start with "Self confidence"

Self confidence
This is what we lack, and this is what your colleague Ismail has.
But what is self confidence?
Is it the ability to speak in a
loud voice so you can get people's attention?
Is it about power dressing?

Self confidence is an attitude that is characterized by a positive
beliefthat one can take control of one's life and of one's plans.

People who are self confident are those who acknowledge
their capacityto do something and then proceed to do these things.
They do not rely on the approval of other people
in order to affirm their existence.
It is enough that they know they have the capacity and the potential
to dosomething, and the guts to do it no matter what others may say.
People who are self confident take advantage of
the opportunities that comes their way.

Lack of self confidence is not proportional to a person's abilities.
In fact, there are people who are extremely talented and able
but they lack self confidence to show these abilities.

Identify your strengths and weaknesses and capitalize on that.
Make full use of your strength and gather positive points.
This will help you gain self confidence.
Do not expect everything to be perfect because
you are bound to do something wrong along the way.
Nobody is perfect and everyone is culpable of making mistakes.

Acknowledge your abilities and talent and take stock of them. Do not
under estimate yourself. Try to recognize every little thing you have
done which has become successful. Try to learn a new skill, and try to
learn new things as this will make you a better person.

If you want to be self confident, avoid things that will
discourage you from gaining confidence. Do not dwell on past mistakes
or failures because it will make you feel insignificant.
Being a defeatist will not give your confidence a boost.

Dear, please concentrate on the positive things that you have done and
accomplished and make them your inspiration. In time, you will have
more faith in yourself, and hopefully, more confidence.

Let's develop self confidence by helping to develop it in others .
Use the following expressions to do this .

Here is a list of 15 encouraging words and phrases
that will assist your to help others to increase
his/her self-esteem and confidence.

family and colleagues will be grateful
and will rise to your expectations .

Remember:-

Confidence doesn't come out of nowhere. It's a result of something...
hours and days and weeks and years of constant work and dedication.
Roger Staubach
