Traits I’ve Noticed in Confident People 
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Disciplined - if a target is set, it is achieved 
Speaking - Can speak multiple languages. Can express thoughts clearly even if vocabulary is limited. The listener understands their point. 
Strong extroversion socially - can approach and talk to new people with ease, but also make them feel comfortable. Good at following up, asking questions and inserting little stories about themselves without exposing too much 
Strong general knowledge / industry knowledge. They know what they’re talking about 
Hard to please but not arrogant about it. They won’t readily accept a fact or opinion, even if the majority agrees - they’ll debate with it, think over it, play the devil’s advocate
Good posture
Strong set of principles and self control. There’s no shame in wanting to say, help someone, choose not to drink socially, buy a coffee for a poor person on the street; they don’t hesitate to do good deeds 
Hygienic. Clean, groomed, well dressed, well maintained. 
Observant and proactive at the same time. Can pick up on body language relatively easily - can sense discomfort or unease in someone and do something about it. 
Have a strong sense of self identity. Can be opinionated but open to challenges.

How to be more confident ;)
Tumblr media
My favorite saying is, “ fake it till you make it”. This is always easier said than done but here are some tips on how to feel and appear more confident.
* Create an alter ego. Give your character a name and write down how they act. Whenever you are in a stressful situation you can become that person.
* Eye contact. Force yourself to keep eye contact. Turn it into game and make them break eye contact first. This is such a power move.
* Good posture. Always walk with a straight back and your head held up. This will make you appear more confident.
* Nobody cares. Remember everyone only cares about themselves. Nobody’s thinking about what u said or did. So just be you and live your life how you want.
* Make a good first impression. Be kind, polite and genuine.
* Listen to affirmation podcasts. There’s are so many confidence boosting affirmation podcast. If u have a stressful situation coming listen to it the night before. The more you tell yourself you are amazing then eventually you will start to believe it.
* Put effort into your appearance. If you look good you will feel good. Take care of your hair, put an outfit you feel good in on, do a little bit of makeup if you want and always wear deodorant and perfume.
90% of life is confidence. The thing about confidence is no one knows if it’s real or not.- Maddy Perez

How are you so confident? Like when I was younger I never received complements on my look and so I thought i was ugly and with my dad calling ever name but a child of God, what can I do to start feeling confident? Especially since I'm going to be 21 in couple months 
I completely understand you. I have been through the exact same thing. Insults and everything.
As I don't know you in person all I can do is tell you what has worked for me.
Two things you need to know.
- Confidence is practised and anyone can learn it. Scientists have proved this. It is not just my opinion.
- What other people think is not that important.
Here's what worked for me.
1. Change your standards of beauty. Feeling beautiful is more of a conscious decision than a feeling.
Right now you have your own beauty standard. Think about it. When you look in the mirror what do you think? Really think about it. It is probably something like this:
I would be beautiful if... " I was thinner", My nose was smaller" "My hair was different".
Those thoughts are your standard of beauty. You should change your mind about this standard.
How? First, create a new standard that looks more like you. And second, take steps toward reinforcing that standard.
On your social media start following people who look like you.
The idea is that every time you open any app you will see many people who look like you living amazing lives. Being loved, in happy relationships, good jobs and looking beautiful on top of that.
You will understand that the way you look, although important is not a deterrent to living a happy and fulfilling life.
Find people who have similar jobs, similar height, similar weight, similar body type, and similar hair.
Don't take this step lightly. Seeing is believing. That is why we are all fighting so hard for positive representation. Because it matters. Because it changes the narrative and has the power to change your mind.
If those people look like you and you think they are beautiful you will start feeling beautiful too. That is a fact.
To me, it was following black girl pages and then skinny black girls and then introverted black girls. All of a sudden all parts of me were fully and beautifully represented. They were beautiful and so was I.
First, you will see. Second, you will love it. Third, you will copy. So find people like you so you can see yourself in a positive light.
2. Change your story.
I learned this year in a book that we all live in a narrative we created in our minds.
As you are turning 21 yo, I recommend this book to you. It is called
- the defining decade, by Meg Jay. You can listen to the audiobook for free. I leave the link to my blog post here:
https://www.theprincientist.com/4-free-audiobooks-for-personal-development/
Basically, you have been telling yourself the same story for many years and that story has had an impact on how you feel about yourself and how you present yourself to the world.
Mine was something like this: Because the kids at school told me I was boring and ugly I lived many years believing that I was unattractive and bad company to keep around.
I would refuse invitations, avoid new friendships and run from boys because that belief was still with me.
I, by myself, reinforced this story every time I refused anything that could change my mind.
So I learned to create a new story: I am a beautiful, young black women who was bullied in school by mean kids. What they said is not necessarily a reality.
I decided to believe that reality and now I don't. My story did not end there and will not be defined by those people.
And then you act to refute those bad comments you've heard in your life.
Create solid evidence that what they said is not true.
Dress cute. Try that hairstyle that makes you feel like a goddess. Take photos as evidence of your beauty.
Compliment yourself. Practice confidence every day in different ways.
Read. Read. Read. - The world gets so much bigger with books. And your perceptions of what is beautiful, confidence will change with time and knowledge. Books teach you how to stand up for yourself when anyone makes you feel - less than others.
Hope it helped.

Be Yourself with Confidence.
You should never feel obligated to do or say something just because you think some else wants you to or just to fit In.That’s not natrual or you.The more you stay true to yourself the happier you will be.If you like playing piano,violin,guitar,writting or singing you do THAT.That Is what makes you you! People always have and alway will have In their mind what you can and cannot do,or what you can and cannot say,or how you should and should not dress.Alway remember to be real.Be authentic.Be yourself and you will be happier being you rather than someone else.It will grow you Into a better person, otherwise how can you grow being someone else? You can not.Be confident In your own body, know your worth and grow like a flower In spring.Never rely on someone else to be confident, but always strive to gain confidence on your own no matter what.Be your own cheerleader! Be confident In the way you style your hair,the way you speak,the way you walk, the way you work,the way you write and In everything.Never let strangers and status quo determine who you truly are,NEVER!

How to be confident as a woman
Tumblr media
      Women go through the same cycle everyday. Being thrown in a position to constantly compare ourselves with others. Society has shoved a particular type of beauty down our throats, to accept it without questioning. But is that really true? Should a stereotypical definition of beauty affect ours as well? The answer is no. Regardless of your height, shape, color, and body type, you are beautiful just the way you are. 
     We all can’t look the same, which only makes us stand out. Looking different from an Instagram model is the exact reason for your uniqueness, not to make you less. Our background, friends and families have made it hard for us to accept ourselves. But how can we overcome this instilled lack of confidence, self- judgement and low self-esteem?
Be yourself: Be the original version and not a photocopy. The only lie you can tell yourself is to be who you are not. Whether you are considered lean or overweight, you’re you and that’s a beautiful thing. If you can’t accept yourself, people’s opinion will always get to you and you will continue to hide. Everyone has flaws, likewise imperfections, rather than living in self-guilt and denial, embrace them.
2. Focus on your strength. Take out a pen and write twenty qualities and attributes that you like about yourself including your talents and skills. If you are not sure, people have praised you for a particular thing before. Whether it is how you keep everything organized or make decent decorations, so take your time and think about it. Think about what you are naturally good at, and what you like about yourself. How you treat your body and mind matters. Rather than obsessing about a particular flaw you can’t change, highlight your strengths and position yourself where they can be of use.
3. Self-care: A lot of women don’t put any effort in how they dress or appear. Remember first impression goes a long way. Do the needful at least, comb your hair, shave your pubic areas, don’t go out without brushing your teeth, use fragrance, apply moisturizers, shave your pubic area, wear clean clothes and iron them. If you don’t know how to combine colors, learn it on YouTube. Express yourself the best way you can, if you don’t like having makeup on, then don’t. Don’t force yourself into doing what you are uncomfortable with. Always wear a smile. Say positive affirmations to yourself every morning.  
4. Class: Carry yourself with elegance and place a value on yourself. Don’t be available all the time, be scarce. Have investment, save money, and save your face when someone tries to disrespect you. Walk like the queen that you are, and respect yourself the way you want others to treat you. Represent yourself well wherever you go. You’re only addressed the way you present yourself. Set healthy boundaries. Maintain eye contact, don’t look down and always keep your posture in check.
5. Kill ignorance: Read books, widen your knowledge, surround yourself with people that can help you grow. Reading gives you an insight to the world, helps you explore the mind of great philosophers and also discover hidden purpose behind successful people. You learn history, stories and develop your creative mind. Ask questions when you don’t know something, get mentorship. Admitting ignorance takes courage, so own that flag and get better. Take courses and learn self-discipline and time management. Eat healthy and exercise. Exercise improves your mind, brain, circulation and promotes flexibility.
      Wherever you are, you can stand out, achieve your dreams, fall in love and even succeed in your career. To attract others, confidence and the goodness of life, you need to attract yourself first. Get too good to be ignored, improve your value and your self-worth.

"-I hope you don't give up on love, I hope you fight for it".
I can't describe the impact this vid made on me and my personal growth. The admiration I have for the character and her strength is imense. Even though it's just a tv show, I do believe that there are people who are just like her - they fight alone every single day without any fear, they sacrifice everything in the name of their loved ones, they love deeply and with no conditions and do know how to respect and appreciate others even in their darkest times.
I'm sharing this as an example of how everyone needs to find their own inspiration and strength to keep going every day and not give up.
Special thanks to the person who made this video, I'll be forever grateful! <3

How to be more confident
We are all born confident, however, at some point in our life, we got brainwashed by society and our environment that we forgot who we truly are. 
So today I want you to remember! ✨
You are in charge of everything you see and go through in life. You are the only one who truly exists in your reality. You are the director, producer, and writer in your own movie. 
You are the creator of everything in your own reality, this also includes people!
There is no one to compare yourself to, there is no one to please, and no one that judges you. 
The outside world is only a reflection of what is going on, on the inside. 
You are pure universal consciousness experiencing itself through human form! Isn’t that amazing?
Are you playing all kinds of different roles in order to fit in and please others? 
Or are you behaving in a way that feels right? Do you do the things that you enjoy? Do you listen to your intuition? 
In order to become more confident, it is important to stop pretending to be someone you are not and actually be yourself. 
So, spend some time figuring out who you truly are. What do you enjoy? What are you passionate about? What do you like? Who inspires you? What are you willing to support or fight for? What do you not like? When are you experiencing a flow state? 
Your body is giving you signs all the time. It’s time to just be still and listen. 
When you know who you are, you will be automatically more confident. 🤍

4 Tips to Build Self-Confidence
Tumblr media
Build self-awareness – The beliefs you hold about yourself are key in confidence building. Be careful when you form certain thoughts about yourself.
Nourish self-love – Compliment yourself and celebrate yourself. Embracing these practices helps you change the way you view yourself and thus your confidence.
Work on the way you carry yourself – For instance, body language is an important part of confidence. Work on your stance, your eye contact, and your mannerisms.
Challenge yourself – Don’t let fear limit you from accomplishing things you desire. Go out there and try. Confidence is the ability to believe in yourself enough to put yourself out there.
