Day 1: CONFIDENCE

http://www.inc.com/peter-economy/5-powerful-ways-to-boost-your-confidence.html

A)  Stay away from Negativity and bring out the positivity

  1. evaluate inner circle, including friends/family - Get away from people that shred your confidence (Debbie Downer)
  2. Feel positive - even if you don't feel it; be excited
  3. Don't focus on the problems; focus on the solutions and make positive changes
B)  Change your body language and image:
  1. Posture(pull shoulders back)
  2. Smile( make others feel more confident)
  3. Eye contact(Look into their eyes)
  4.  Speech (speak slowly and clearly; feel more confidence)
  5. Style your hair, clean shave, dress nicely
  6. Take pictures of your wardrobe before going out
C) Don't accept failure and get rid of the negative voices in your head
  1. never give up; never accept failure; succeed through great adversity
  2. Low self-confidence = negative thoughts
  3. You are what you preach; turn on the positive affirmations

If you are constantly bashing yourself and saying you're not good enough, aren't attractive enough, aren't smart enough or athletic enough, and on and on, you are creating a self-fulfilling prophecy.

D)  Be prepared
  1. Learn everything there is to know about your field, job, presentation
  2. If you are prepared, and have the knowledge to back it up:
  3. SELF CONFIDENCE will SOAR if you are well prepared
E)For Tough times, when all else fails:  Create a great List
  1. Count your blessings list 
  2. Count your accomplishment list
  3. Post them Everywhere that can be easily seen
