Believe it or not, some of the most successful folk you see are introverts. How did they use their introversion to their advantage and become successful in an industry that appears aimed at loud, outgoing folks?
Here are 4 easy steps that can be helpful.
1. Affirmation.
The most important thing is to triumph in the fight of mindset. Confirmation are just positive things that you assert out loud to oneself each day. This can be extremely difficult on occasions because you may not essentially believe what you are claiming. So why would you say something to yourself that you do not believe? Heightened confidence to step out has to begin with you. Therefore if you are shy and threatened by folk, start to say something similar to the following: "I am NOT shy and I am NOT threatened by people. I'm Very confident when I get around people."
Repeat this to yourself out loud at least 10 times before you leave your room. When you say this, don't just mumble it either, say it as many times as required until you assert it with eagerness and conviction.
2. Read to grow.
Again, heightened confidence starts with you. Read something everyday for a minimum of 30 minutes that may help you raise your self-image. This can be an article, a book, or even an audio series. The more you learn the more that you will grow. The more you grow, the more your self-confidence will improve.
3. Take action every day.
Do something every day, starting with something small, that immediately deals with your low self-esteem. For example, if you are unable to talk with folk as you feel unsure and inferior, just start off by saying 'Hi'. As you get more comfortable with this, then start to make chit-chat. You'll begin to feel more assured and more assured until one day, you will find that you have overcome low self-esteem in that area.
4. Stop the destructive thoughts.
Negative thoughts are like land mines. As quickly as you step out to face your fear, a negative thought comes and tells you that you can't do it and BOOM; you believe it and lose that round. As an alternative diffuse unproductive thoughts before they've a opportunity to do damage.
A good way to do this is with a rubber band! Put an elastic band around your wrist. Each time a idea comes into your head that tells you that you can't do something, you'll never succeed, or anything negative, SNAP the elastic band on your wrist.
You may be snapping that band till your wrist is red and sore. Before long though, you will stop the negative feelings because you do not need to harm your wrist any more.
These four steps will help you raise your self confidence and get more confident stepping out. Just remember this: you are not going to switch over night. It'll take a little time but so long as you are progressing, you are on the way to success.
