Confidence! That amazing when you have it but horrible feeling when you don't tiny little green monster on your shoulder that rules the world! (Ok, maybe that was a little dramatic) But I think not! Lets be honest, confidence is huge, and in today's society it looked for in every individual. Whether its a job interview, a date, an important meeting, or simply confidence in yourself; its IMPORTANT. Unfortunately, for most, its something that we really have to work on. But in reality, it's hard to work on gaining confidence, and we all have our low days.
When I was in high school, I had a big lack of confidence, and it really affected me. My grandma taught me this system and every time I walk into a room now, I rock it! People know who I am, know what I represent, and see the confidence I carry. So here is my secret to gaining confidence in seconds, and rocking everyday!
Here is how:
1. Close your eyes, take three deep breath. Calm your mind and your nerves.
2. Think of the things you want to achieve today, or what you want to feel. Example: " I am Confident, Beautiful, and Amazing at my job", or, "I am Confident, Smart, Beautiful and Lovable". It can be any combination of the things you want to be that day, and how you want to be seen by others.
3. Pretend you have a zipper from just bellow your belly button to the top of your head, and the zipper is undone. Were going to zip ourselves up!
4. Take the imaginary zipper and as your zipping up take a deep breath and say you combination of words. Do this three times, taking a deep breath between each zip.
5. When you get to your third zip, lock the zipper and throw away the key.
(If you need to zip up more than three times, zip up till you feel that confidence)
I do this every day before I leave the house, it makes a huge difference for me. Every time I go on a date, I zip up, and those three simple words I told myself I was, is how he saw me that night. Before a job interview I'm all shakes, but when I zip up, I walk into that room like I own it. If I'm intimated by someone, I sneak to the bathroom and zip up! I come out of the bathroom and all eyes are on me. I hope that you all try this and can gain that extra boost of confidence that we all need sometimes!
Don't let the little green monster get you down!!
Try it.... NOW!
Own your day, because its yours to own, and yours to enjoy!
