Confident


How to Become More Confident, Today
Confidence is greatly misunderstood. Most people think some are just born with it, and others aren’t. The truth is, confidence is a practice. It’s a skill. It’s a knife that, unless sharpened daily, becomes a dull blade.

In this article, we’ll go over one unexpected way that helps people become confident, fast. Here it is:

Confidence comes from the inside. But what’s inside is influenced by what’s outside. Our surroundings play a large part in how we feel. When we’re surrounded by people, places and situations that make us feel joy and strength, our confidence flows. When we’re surrounded by messes, clutter, and environments that drain us - our confidence becomes chained inside of us.

To be confident, you have to surround yourself with things that make you feel confident. That means clothes, people, music, objects, etc. Everything in your life has to remind you of who you are, and that you’re a worthy, strong person.

For example, I once met a graphic designer who was full of remarkable talent. However, she felt held back. She felt like she wasn’t as inspired or impassioned as she should be. She worked at a clunky, old, slow laptop. And she didn’t have a proper desk or workspace.

Then, she saved up, and got herself a brand new, sleek, fast computer. She got a beautiful desk, and filled it with inspiring images, books, and pieces of art. Instantly, her creativity flourished. She worked faster, harder, and more enjoyably.

She says these changes brought out her confidence. And her confidence let her brilliance flow.
Many people write off clothes, furniture, and other objects as being “materialistic”. But consider this... We’re made of material. Our bodies are completely material. Doesn’t it make sense that other material objects and surroundings would influence us?

For a writer, having a favorite pen and notebook makes all the difference. For a handyman, it’s having a toolset he can be proud of.

So ask yourself, do the objects in your life help your confidence flow? Or do they keep it chained up?

If you hate your clothes... your furniture... the mess in your kitchen... the pictures on your wall... It eats away at you. Even if money is tight, there are small changes you can start making today. Replace more and more of what you don’t like over time, and before you know it, everything in your life will inspire your confidence.
