    Set smaller goals. I don't mean that you should not reach for the stars, however, I do know that to get to the stars you should first get into the atmosphere. Feeling good about yourself is a constant process. Confidence does not just happen overnight. When you look at your life goals consider breaking them up into smaller, stepping stones to the end result. This way you can have a constant flow of positive reinforcement as you achieve the steps along the journey of life.

    Think positive. It's the oldest trick in the book. If you know how to think positively, then things will be easier for you. Why? Because positive thinking can really do wonders. Aside from that, once you think positively, you will notice that you'll actually feel good about yourself, and that you will feel good about what's going on around you. And, even if things go wrong, you'd know that these are just challenges and that you can rise above them.

    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 superb features to show them off!

    This book will help you to build your self esteem.  

    I would like to encourage you to begin the journey by looking at yourself and accepting what you see. There can never be another you so be all you can be for the time being.   

    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 Insecurity

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

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

      Negative self-image

      Individuals who have a negative image of themselves usually assume that their unique qualities are not as interesting as other folks, thus they are not 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 that you have 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 feel 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 stress because you start to question your every move. Your focus is devoted to the things that you are doing wrong.

      False labeling

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

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

      Do not assume that the whole world is watching your every move. Take into account that most people, including you, are busy looking at themselves. Why not bring your awareness inside? If you have understood the source of your anxiety, seek inside your inner thoughts ways to counter that sense of shyness with positive thoughts. Self-awareness is your first step into improving yourself.

      Do not conform and do not attempt to pretend what you are not. 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.

      Instead of concentrating on the wrong you may commit give attention to individuals around you. If you're conversing with a tiny group, focus on others and hear what they have to say. Shift your interest into getting to know these people. You probably have one person with whom you have been constantly working with in the same office team but you don't even know his or her first name because you don't spend time with him or her outside work. Get in touch with people.

      Practice visualization. Reshape your belief of yourself. See yourself as a self-assured person. Imagine a scene where you are in the center of a conversation in a tiny group. Listen to what you are saying. See how assured you are while speaking with other people. See yourself oozing with self-confident. Visualize just what you are wearing, who you are with, what time of the day it is, and what you are talking about. Visualize this image over and over. Use your senses, listen to the sounds around you, see the images, feel the people you are with, and identify the smell. Establish what you are feeling that very moment. Make the images real in your thoughts.

      Practice affirmation exercises. Recognize the power of your thoughts and your words. Regularly speak about how self-confident you are, how happy you are, or how content you are. Say you have the capability, you are self-confident, and you are wonderful. These words will be picked up by your subconscious mind, imbibes them, and convert them into truth. Realign your thoughts, so instead of nurturing negative thoughts, take into account the positives. Visualization and positive affirmation will change your thinking habits and will cause you to changing your life generally.

      There will always be a possibility of being rejected. Accept rejection but don't take it personally. Remember, you don't have the monopoly of feelings. If everyone feels stressed, everyone can be rejected as well. It is how you handle rejections that will determine you. It is not your fault that you have been rejected, it was not just meant to be. Just move on and learn from it. There shouldn't be any room for self-pity. Consider rejection as a blessing in disguise and then move forward.

      Practice your social skills. Go out there and mingle.

      How to Skyrocket Your Self-Esteem

      Experts 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 encouraged? Do you know yourself, and are you proud of that? Only you can decide.

      Saying negative things such as the ones listed below may seem harmless, but what you are doing is creating something in you that later becomes permanent. It soon becomes the cause of conditions such as eating disorders, anxiety, and panic attacks. Some of these things we say are:

      I am a failure...

      I am so fat/thin...

      He/she will never look at me...

      I will never make it...

      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 grabbing chances.

      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 find 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 arrogant when all you needed was a shoulder to lean on.

      The first step to increasing 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.

      Understand and put thought in all that you do

      Make informed choices, and avoid impulsiveness. If you do not live mindfully, your brain freezes, it is no longer able to send meaningful messages to you
