    What You'll Also Discover Inside...

    Expect more from yourself than others. The good news - everyone believes in what you show. Nobody can read your thoughts to know your doubts. The bad news - you can interpret every people's sight in a wrong way. Any weird reaction and you start worrying without any reason. Psychologists recommend listening to your "inner voice". Make this experiment: note down every thought while you are lacking of self-confidence. Every time you start worrying, do a three-minute break. Take the list and remind yourself how great you are. Show to your brain the material proof of your self-confidence.

    Positive statements. Remember the choice-to train? I know, I can, I know, I can! Positive statements are not about being oblivious to the not so positive but is about proper framing of your reality. Ever the most unpleasant event can be stated in some form of a positive statement. These statements give you the chance to build a productive positive outlook on life which supports your confidence in life. Having a positive outlook on life allows you to access far more of your abilities, therefore, you are able to achieve more every day.

    Appearance is everything. When you look good you feel good. Simple. If you are walking around looking like you just got out of a rubbish bin, you probably won't be too confident about yourself. We all know how you feel when you walk out of the hairdresser, you walk a bit taller, you walk with purpose. So look after yourself and dress your best and you will feel your best. You know your best features to show them off!

    This book will help you to build your self esteem.  

    Improving yourself takes time and effort. You have to be willing to make the changes and be committed to taking action rather than just reading about them.   

    The next step is to apply the necessary information from this book in your daily living. You can also share it to your friends or work colleagues who are in need of help on how to raise emotional intelligence and improve self-confidence.

      Chapter 1 - How to Eliminate Shyness

      It may not come as a surprise if you admit that one time or another you felt self-conscious when you are placed in a room filled with strangers. But, have you ever experienced so shy that your heartbeat began to race when someone asked you out on a date but you were too shy to say yes? That is another form of social anxiety.

      Why do people experience shyness? Everyone tends to feel shyness at varying degrees. Your shyness might be because of any of the following:

      Negative self-image

      Individuals who have a negative image of themselves usually believe that their unique qualities aren't as interesting as other people, thus they aren't worthy of praise or admiration. They often resort to attempting hard to fit in but often end up not liking their own selves. Psychologists say you need to go back to a person's experiences when growing up because generally, it is during this time that their image of themselves is developed.

      Extreme self-preoccupation

      Self-preoccupation is when you become overly sensitive to all the things that you are doing or saying, it is as if you are in the center of attention. This sense is only going to create anxiety because you get started to question your every move. Your focus is centered on the things that you are doing wrong.

      False labeling

      When you say and see yourself as a shy person, you have the tendency to live up to that image.

      To overcome shyness and social anxiety you need to use a few strategies:

      Every person is unique. You have to find your strengths and improve on them. Instead finding what's wrong with you, find something that you are good at and focus on consistently doing it. Find characteristics that put you at an advantage. In your uniqueness, find what makes you tick and magnify it.

      Do not conform and do not try to pretend what you aren't. Embrace your uniqueness. What you are not aware of is that each person you come in contact with has some extent of shyness in them. There are people who look cool and composed in the outside who are being self-conscious and anxious if people would notice what they are feeling inside.

      Figure out how to relax and take deep breaths to calm the anxiety. Yoga may also be a good therapy and exercise because it helps you relax. If you are relaxed, you are able to direct your attention away from your own self and you begin to take notice and develop your conversational skills.

      Release your stress and anxiety. Do exercise sessions. Instead of being stressed, re-channel your energy into something else. Look at things at a complete new point of view. You walk or jog around the neighborhood to release that. Some would say doing deep breathing exercises.

      If anything bad does happen, do not bail out. You just entered a room filled with people and you begin to feel the anxiety so you feel that the next best thing is to just leave. Doing this will not help you in any way. Turn the problem into something that you can learn from. Why did you suddenly feel that way? Is there a way that you can change how you feel? Face the situation and learn from it. That is the only way you can escape it.

      Nobody's perfect. Regardless of how popular one is, he's still not perfect, so stop comparing yourself with others.

      Stop the labeling and simply be as confident as you can be.

      How to Boost Your Self-Esteem

      Psychologists define self-esteem as the overall perspective of a person on his or her value. It is one’s view of the self and one’s attitude towards it. Do you feel worthy? Do you feel able? Are you proud of yourself? Are you motivated? Do you know yourself, and are you proud of that? Only you can decide.

      If you constantly doubt your self-worth and abilities, if you have no trust in your qualifications and skills and ultimately no pride in yourself, and if you find yourself feeling worthless, then you have issues with self-esteem, and you need to address that before it goes out of hand.

      What does a low self-esteem do?

      1. Poor health as a result of eating disorders, and low energy levels because you are so busy pleasing everybody but yourself.

      2. Missed career opportunities as a result of the echo in your head that says you cannot do it. Low self-esteem makes you feel inappropriate and unworthy hence hinders you from taking risks and creating something.

      3. Sexual problems are closely related to self-esteem issues because it is all about an individual’s problem with his or her image. Low self-esteem leads to low sex drive and addictions. People seek help for these only to discover that there existed deeper rooted issues that manifested themselves as sexual addiction or sexual problems.

      4. Low self-esteem affects your emotions because you find yourself unable to put your feelings to the fore. It hinders you from accepting your weaknesses and sharing intimacy on many levels with a partner. You find yourself being either too shy and come across as aloof or too bullish when all you needed was a shoulder to lean on.

      The first step to building your self-esteem is by challenging his messages of criticism to you. Replace them with opposite and positive messages. An example of a negative inner voice is when you are ‘told’ These people will never like me, I am too short and inappropriate, or They think I am spoilt and stuck up. Acknowledge your strengths and say I am the best there can ever be, I am beautiful, or I have a kind heart for helping people.

      Be good to yourself

      If you know that you would give a shoulder to a friend who is in a hard time, then you should do the same for yourself. You should be the first person to receive that care and commiseration. Give yourself that support; be a fellow with yourself and help ‘you.’ If you can give, then you should allow yourself to receive - especially during hard times. Be good and forgive yourself when something does not go as planned. Be gentle and support yourself instead of being critical when you fail, and most of all accept that things do not always turn out as expected.

      Accept yourself

      This is something you have to decide on. Self-acceptance is a conscious decision. It is something that helps you accept without denial that we are how we are – thin, fat, black or white. It is agreeing that you feel what you feel, you desire what you desire and have what we have, and ultimately, we are what we are. What’s next? Declare to yourself that you choose to value yourself, to treat yourself with honor and dignity. This is the basic act of agreeing to yourself and self-esteem grows and feeds out of this.

      Be responsible for you

      Begin to realize that no one will come to make you feel better. To each one, life is given, and we have our own lives to live. You are therefore responsible for your own happiness. You can sit around and be gloomy about it all day, all year, and watch your life waste way, or you can take a stand and own your life and happiness.

      Be self-assertive

      Being assertive means living respectfully and in entirety of the human society. Self-assertiveness is upholding and standing for your rights while acknowledging those of others. It is striking a balance between being independent and being autonomous. Being a
