Inner confidence does not come naturally to some people. They struggle with confidence all their life and are unable to prove their worth even in their own eyes. If this sounds familiar, here are 10 ways to develop and channel your inner confidence.

One reason why so many people feel under confident is that they try to do a ‘jack of all and master of all’ thing in life. Instead of focusing on something they pick bits of everything and when they can’t do something in-depth it hurts their confidence.

It takes a load of courage to understand your weaknesses and work on them. And if you really want to channel your inner confidence, own your weakness and imperfections and work on them without criticising yourself too much.

One of the biggest confidence killers is definitely comparison. And if you were compared too much as a child, do yourself a favour and stop doing it to yourself as you grow older. Comparison will only bring in more problems!

Many people feel that confidence is about always being right and knowing the right thing. But truthfully, true confidence is also in being comfortable with what you do not know. If you do not know something, admit it, learn it, and face it later in life with confidence.

Confident people do not feel the urge to fill every silence with words. So even when you feel like saying something in situations, evaluate if it is truly important for you to speak. Be confident in your mind and you will feel composed and self-assured.

One of the hardest ways to build confidence, but also the most important, is to hop out of the comfort zone you have set for yourself. Do things that you are weak in and do them time and again to develop confidence.

Look in the mirror, look at yourself, and talk. Talk to yourself about your day, about the ups and downs, what you wished to change, what you will do differently tomorrow, and the likes. Slowly, your interactions with others will also be more confident.

Often, our underconfidence comes not from being unskilled but rather from people who mock us and make us feel so. So, surround yourself with a supportive group of people who lift each other up.

Another reason why many people remain underconfident is because they do not like the way they look, think, or feel. And as these things are completely in our hands, if you think losing or gaining weight will give you confidence, do it!

No matter how big or small, a win is a win. Be it talking to a stranger or delivering an excellent presentation, write down everything that made your proud of yourself today.
