It doesn’t take much for life to play havoc with your confidence. A bad hair day, a horrible, I’ll-quit-my-job-I-swear day can leave you drained out of energy, desperate from a pick-me-up.
How do you get diva-level confidence when everything and everyone seems to be plotting against you?
Have fun with your body and the way you take care of it
If you have a love-hate relationship with your body, this will majorly damage your self-confidence. If you hate exercising find physical activities that don’t make you self-conscious but ecstatic.
Don’t go jogging, dance like no one’s watching at home.
Dancing to an upbeat tune, not only will burn a batch calories, but it will boost your mood as well! By the end of your Buck-Up! playlist you will be feeling energetic and brimming with confidence!
Dress Up
Some say it’s a wrong premise to base your confidence on materialistic and superficial things like clothing and make up. However, dressing up (and having nowhere to go) can in fact have a long-lasting impact on your confidence and mood.
Wear your favorite sundress and go for a walk in the park. Don’t take your phone or music along. Talk to people and breathe in life!
Act up
Feeling good about yourself is the first step!
To feel great about your body and self you need to believe you do first.
So, even if you don’t actually feel sexy, beautiful, feminine today, trick yourself into believing you are!
Even if temporarily you fake your confidence, before you know it you will become confident. And this is proof how points of view are all a matter of perception and attitude.
Believe in your power to change how you feel about yourself and you’re halfway there!
EXTRA TIP
Finally, remember what Tyra Banks says,
“‘Girls of all kinds can be beautiful – from the thin, plus-sized, short, very tall, ebony to porcelain-skinned; the quirky, clumsy, shy, outgoing and all in between. It’s not easy though because many people still put beauty into a confining, narrow box…Think outside of the box…Pledge that you will look in the mirror and find the unique beauty in you.’
