【題目】Tips to Become More Confident

Our confidence plays an important role in ability to achieve success and happiness. It affects our mental thought patterns, the way we speak and act, and the decisions we make in all areas of our lives. Confident people take more action, perform better, and are more likely to attain their goals. 【1】 Lucky for us, confidence can be built and strengthened until it becomes natural, just as any other habit. It simply takes a little time, some effort, and a bit of attention.

1. Fail more often.

The more challenges you take on, the more failures you’ll have, but learning that you can recover, get up and push forward builds confidence.

2. 【2】

Keep a list of successes, big and small. It’ll help you to see your abilities in a more positive and realistic light.

3. Start a conversation.

When you find yourself in a social situation, don’t always turn to those people you’re comfortable with. 【3】 Eventually getting to know new people will become easier.

4. Don’t compare.

Stop measuring yourself against others. 【4】 Making comparisons is a damaging and an inaccurate measure of success anyway.

Confidence helps you to be more secure in your abilities and more positive in your attitude. It also encourages you to be more assertive(堅定自信的) to take on more challenges, and to improve your skills. 【5】 The end result is a better outlook, more success, and a higher quality of life in all areas.
