It can be very easy to put ourselves down and forget how wonderful each individual person actually is. Although it may seem hard or impossible at time there are things you can do in order to make yourself feel more confident in your won skin each and every day.

Whether you just want to feel more confident, need to get rid of negative influences or just need a bit of a boost, have a look below at some of the ways you can help yourself feel more confident: 

Don’t Seek The validation Of Others 

It can be far too easy and become a habit to constantly seek the validation of others in order to assess how you feel, this needs to stop in order for you to appreciate yourself for who you are. We are all amazing people and therefore don’t need someone else to tell us how great we are. So, rather than validating yourself through other opinions try to feel more comfortable with who you are. More often than not the opinion of others is more damaging than good so it's best to stay clear. 

Fake It Until You Make It 

This doesn't in any way mean that you should be putting a mask over any feeling that you have however acting like you're confident has the power to bring out someone true confidence. Sometimes making small changes, using things such as shapewear from julietwear.com, taking up a new hobby or speaking out about how you're feeling can be a hidden catalyst into your true confidence coming through. This is not about faking who you are as a person, that will not work and it’s something that we all have to overcome. 

Be Self Aware

It might seem easy however becoming more self-aware doesn't happen overnight, Taking baby steps towards becoming more aware however can allow you to be more confident. In order to feel self-worth, we must be aware of who we are. We must also be willing to accept the good and the bad as at the end of the day it’s part of who we are. Trying looking for your strengths and weaknesses, and write them down. Don’t judge yourself though, you’re just learning about who you are not critiquing in. 

Accept That You Have Weaknesses

While you are becoming more self-aware and writing down your weaknesses it’s time to start accepting them. Everyone has weaknesses and it’s a big part of who we are as a person. You should try to accept all of your characteristics and learn to love them. Practice self-acceptance and you will be well on your way to feeling more confident. Having the power to accept these can be easier than accepting your strengths but you shouldn’t forget about these either.
