Tips to Improve Your Confidence
7 of them!
Looking at it, most of the stuff listed there seem to involve somehow "tricking" yourself in some manner or another. Just doesn't seem like the best way to go. Why bother creating an illusion of confidence when you could just create real confidence in yourself. Hah, and what happens when you're in the middle of things and you suddenly realize you're a puffed up eggball and start stuttering your way out the door.
Hah, so instead of that... Hm... how do I deal with lack of confidence? Actually, I think I picture the problem not as a lack of confidence, but rather as one of too much worry. And you deal with it like you're playing some kind of zero-sum game with worry and confidence as the players. Seems to work I think. Then to increase confidence you just work to reduce worry. I guess I usually go about this by trying to understand and facts of the situation, and the facts about of what I can do... then just go for it. Que sera, sera.
