Self-confident people are admired by others and inspire confidence in others. They face their fears head-on and tend to be risk takers. They know that no matter what obstacles come their way, they have the ability to get past them. Self-confident people tend to see their lives in a positive light even when things aren't going so well, and they are typically satisfied with and respect themselves.

Wouldn't it be amazing to have this kind of self-confidence, every day of the week?Guess what? You can. Here are some tips which will surely help you to boost your confidence.

1. Stay away from negativity and bring on the positivity
This is the time to really evaluate your inner circle, including friends and family. This is a tough one, but it's time to seriously consider getting away from those individuals who put you down and shred your confidence. Even a temporary break from Debbie Downer can make a huge difference and help you make strides toward more self-confidence.

2. Change your body language and image

This is where posture,smiling.eye contact, and speech slowly come into play. Just the simple act of pulling your shoulders back gives others the impression that you are a confident person. Smiling will not only make you feel better, but will make others feel more comfortable around you. Imagine a person with good posture and a smile and you'll be envisioning someone who is self-confident.

3. Don't accept failure and get rid of the negative voices in your head

Never give up. Never accept failure. There is a solution to everything, so why would you want to throw in the towel? Make this your new myntra. Succeeding through great adversity is a huge confidence booster.

Low self-confidence is often caused by the negative thoughts running through our minds on an endless track.

4-Appreciate yourself

If you're hard on yourself all the time, you'll make life hard for yourself. You don't deserve all that constant negativity and while it is important to focus on what needs self-improving, this should not be at the expense of your self-confidence. Tell yourself you're a great person who can do anything you put your mind to. Every time a negative or critical thought pops into your head, dismiss it with a positive thought that says "Yes, but I am healthy/clever/capable, etc." instead. Repeat this exercise regularly for best effect.

5-Remember that you are the most important person in your life
You need to take care of yourself and appreciate yourself. This isn't about being selfish; the more you have taken care of your confidence-building and sorted out your own issues, the freer you are to assist others to find the same pathway and to be generous with your time, knowledge and skills.
