How Increased Confidence Can Help YOU
Increased Confidence can get you pretty much whatever you want. It might sound like cheesy advice your parents might have given you but its true.
Increased Confidence coupled with being yourself – is a great formula
If you want to succeed in your career/business or take any aspect of your life to the next level, then boosting your confidence is one of the best ways to accomplish that.
Here’s why:
What Increased Confidence Really Means
If you have ever met someone who seems to have everything under control, you might have noticed that they are usually very confident.
The truth is the whole reason they appear so successful is that confidence. That ís because confidence sends a powerful signal!
It says I consider myself to be a catch.
Speaking in evolutionary terms, confidence suggests that you are a good potential partner, or a superior competitor.
Even if someone is short, poorly dressed and unappealing, if they are supremely confident then it will seem as though they know something you don’t.
The assumption is they must have a reason to be that confident.
We instantly assume this person is somehow our superior. That we should try to impress them, or try to be more like them.
That’s why we gravitate toward confident people and want to be liked by them.
A lot of people don’t realize the importance of confidence and they think it is enough to be nice.
They assume that by acting nice, they will get people to like them. That they can overcome their looks, their stature, or their status.
But if you don’t have any self-confidence and you act very nice, then this can actually backfire. It starts to seem as though you want something and that you are being a creep in order to get it.
If you act a little less needy, if you can show yourself to be highly capable and impressive. You can chat to someone in a friendly and open manner.
People will be won over by your charm and your appeal.
This niceness seems much more genuine because you appear that you don’t need help from everyone.
Teeny Tips
Stop trying to win people round by being nice.
Don’t belittle yourself
Act like you know your worth and then layer niceness on top of that.
That’s a winner

I think confidence is essential if you want people to take you seriously. Confidence can be a great substitute for an shortcomings in skill, people so gravitate toward confident people. Thanks for sharing Lynda..
Thanks a lot Keith. I agree. It should form the basis of anyone who wants to get on and succeed in what they want to do.
I do believe that a person who has high self-confidence creates in them a very magnetic personality. You are right these types of people are very attractive and they are the ones who usually become more successful than others.
