People with self-confidence build on their experiences. They have memories of being confident. These people see it as proof that they can be confident in other situations, too. It is a fortress against doubt. They trust themselves. Self-confident people don't need external validation.

That's because it comes from within. If that's a new practice for you, just start small. Make a list of everything you're grateful for. Do this every day and you'll start to look for the good in life. You will create those reference points for yourself.

This might be easier said than done. But we promise you it works! If you're debating about whether or not to send that text, just do it. When you wait for 6 seconds or more, self-doubt creeps in. Then you'll be crippled about whether or not to actually do it.

Overcoming that self-doubt is the first step to increasing your confidence. It also helps build good relationships. You aren't holding yourself back. You might feel vulnerable at first if you're not used to being so brave. Embrace the vulnerability. "Fake it 'til you make it."

Things don't give you happiness. People and experiences do. Self-confident people believe that they are worthy of happiness. You deserve it too! Don't waste time explaining yourself. Just go for it. You are enough.

You just have to believe it. Pursuing those experiences improves your self-esteem. If someone doesn't understand it, forget them. Your joy is more important than what others think of you.
