Improve Your Confidence

Your mind is like a computer; you create feelings in your body through the images and sounds that you create in your mind. When you create great pictures of success in your mind along with a positive internal voice you create empowering feelings in your body. Through constant practise and conditioning, these become automatic processes that give you the feelings you want consistently. I'll show you how these process work and how to achieve more confidence in any area of your life.

Master your Mind
In order to achieve more confidence, first you must master your mind. By creating empowering images and sounds in your mind you create empowering feelings of confidence in your body. Have you ever seen somebody that is so confident, and you thought it would be awesome to be like that? How do you think they become confident like that? They created amazing pictures of themselves succeeding in their mind, along with a confident internal voice that told them they can achieve whatever they want. This drove them to take action and as they took action over and over, everything became easier and easier. Confidence became an automatic process, like tying their shoelace or brushing their teeth. Therefore, the real trick to lasting confidence is to take more action, over and over. You became great at walking, because when you were a baby, you tried it so many times. Finally after falling down enough times, you were able to walk and it became an automatic process. The same is true about confidence or any other empowering emotion. The more action you take over and over, you'll eventually become confident in this area which will be lasting confidence. This all sounds good in theory, but let me give you a technique that will give you more confidence and allow you to take more action to achieve lasting confidence.

Visualise and Anchor
Close your eyes and slow down your breathing. Imagine seeing yourself in a blockbuster movie. See the way you move, the way you breathe and the look on your face when you're doing something you're totally confident in. Now step inside yourself in that movie and see everything through your own eyes when you're totally confident. Make the pictures bigger, brighter and more colourful in your mind now. What sounds do you here around you, when you're totally confident? Make these sounds richer and louder. Now feel the amazing feelings of confidence spread throughout your body as you completely confident in this situation. Intensify these feelings of confidence now, and when you're completely confident squeeze your thumb and middle finger together for about 2-3 seconds and then release. This will create an emotional anchor for these confident feelings. Keep visualising and when you feel these amazing feeling of confidence again, squeeze these fingers together. Repeat this 3-5 times. Now when you squeeze these fingers you'll have all these amazing feelings of confidence spread throughout your body.

Transfer the feeling
Now close your eyes again and visualise the situation you're struggling to have confidence in. Imagine you're in a blockbuster movie and see everything playing out successfully, the way you want it to play out. Notice the way you look, the way you breathe and the look on your face when you're totally confident in this situation. Now step inside yourself in this movie and see everything play out successfully through your own eyes. Make the images bigger, brighter and bolder and create a confident internal voice in your head. Now squeeze your anchor and feel all these feeling of confidence spread throughout your body while you're in this situation. Go back and repeat this 3-5 times. Now when you fire your anchor, all those amazing feelings of confidence will spread throughout your body.

Open your eyes and think of the situation you were struggling with confidence. How do you feel now? I bet you feel great and you're itching to take some action. With all these amazing feelings of confidence inside you're able to take more action in this situation. By taking more action over and over you'll create an automatic feeling of confidence in your body that will last. This is a quick and easy way to create lasting confidence in any area of your life. This will ultimately lead you to enjoy more happiness and success in your life.
