Have you ever considered how many opportunities you have missed and how many chances you have wasted by lacking self-confidence when you need it most? Have you ever given up on your plans, important goals, and dreams not because you just decided to focus on something else, but simply because you were too SCARED or hesitant to even start, or stick up to the plan and keep going? Are you afraid of starting your own business or asking for a promotion? Petrified of public speaking, socializing, dating, taking up new hobbies, or going to job interviews? Can you imagine how amazing and relieving it would feel to finally obtain all the self-esteem needed to accomplish things you've always wanted to achieve in your life? Finally, have you ever found yourself in a situation where you simply couldn’t understand WHY you acted in a certain way, or why you kept holding yourself back and feeling all the bad emotions, instead of just going for what’s the most important to you? Due to early social conditioning and many other influences, most people on this planet are already familiar with all these feelings. WAY TOO FAMILIAR! I know how it feels, too. I was in the same exact place. And then, I found the way! It's high time you did something about it too because, truth be told, self-confident people just have it way easier in every single aspect of life! From becoming your own boss or succeeding in your career, through dating and socializing, to starting new hobbies, standing up for yourself or maybe finally packing your suitcase and going on this Asia trip you promised yourself decades ago… All too often, people fail in these quests as they aren’t equipped with the natural and lasting self-confidence to deal with them in a proper way. Confidence is not useful only in everyday life and casual situations. Do you really want to fulfill your wildest dreams, or do you just want to keep chatting about them with your friends, until one day you wake up as a grumpy, old, frustrated person? Big achievements require brave and fearless actions. If you want to act bravely, you need to be confident. Along with lots of useful, practical exercises, this book will provide you with plenty of new information that will help you understand what confidence problems really come down to. And this is the most important and the saddest part, because most people do not truly recognize the root problem, and that’s why they get poor results. Lack of self-confidence and problems with unhealthy self-esteem are usually the reason why smart, competent, and talented people never achieve a satisfying life; a life that should easily be possible for them. In this book, you will read about: -How, when, and why society robs us all of natural confidence and healthy self-esteem. -What kind of social and psychological traps you need to avoid in order to feel much calmer, happier, and more confident. -What “natural confidence” means and how it becomes natural. -What “self-confidence” really is and what it definitely isn’t (as opposed to what most people think!). -How your mind hurts you when it really just wants to help you, and how to stop the process. -What different kinds of fear we feel, where they come from, and how to defeat them. -How to have a great relationship with yourself. -How to use stress to boost your inner strength. -Effective and ineffective ways of building healthy self-esteem. -Why the relation between self-acceptance and stress is so crucial. -How to stay confident in professional situations. -How to protect your self-esteem when life brings you down, and how to deal with criticism and jealousy. -How to use neuro-linguistic programming, imagination, visualizations, diary entries, and your five senses to re-program your subconscious and get rid of “mental viruses” and detrimental beliefs that actively destroy your natural confidence and healthy self-esteem.
