My 7 Tips for Improving Self Confidence

As you may have seen from my previous post, this year is my year of self discovery and confidence. Although I am a work in progress, I can share some tips that have been working for me so far.


1. Take care of your body

• You deserve it! I know that I feel the best about myself when I take extra time to take care of my body, and other people can see that too! 

2. Smile at people

• I have a terrible habit of looking at the ground when I walk and looking away when people speak to me. Recently, I have been making a conscious effort to look around at the world and smile at people (I even say hi sometimes- scary, I know) when I am walking somewhere. If you open yourself up to the world, the world will open up to you. 

3. Walk like you have a secret

• This sounds crazy, but walk like a boss ass bitch and you will start to feel like one! 

4. Know your strengths and weaknesses

• Stop beating your self up over your weaknesses! Everyone has them! Instead, focus on improving your best assets so you can be the best version of yourself that you possibly can be.

5. Fake it till you make it

• Although it can be difficult, try to leave your insecurities at the door. Your limitations are 100% mental. If you tell yourself that you are the best, you will be unstoppable. 

6. Find time to do what you love

• Sometimes with work and school, the things that we love doing tend to be put on a back burner. It's important to make time for yourself! It's what keeps us sane and gives us purpose. When you feel good about what you're doing, you will feel good about yourself.

7. Embrace your imperfections

• You aren't perfect, and that's okay. No one is! But that's what makes us human, and that's what makes us interesting. Imagine how boring this world would be if we were all the same!
