5 Ways To Boost Confidence And Feel More Empowered

5 Ways To Boost Confidence And Feel More Empowered When it comes to being a successful business woman, one of the things that brings you the most success is your confidence. Sure, skills and drive are important, but confidence can win friends (and sales) and influence people. But how do you get confidence? Well, it comes from within. When someone feels good about themselves and the things that they do it helps to boost their confidence. Confidence, in turn, gives you more drive and makes you feel like you can do anything. Get Fit Getting fit, whether you just need to get toned some or you need to actually lose a little weight, can do a lot to boost your confidence. You’ll be happier when you look in the mirror, and even when you get dressed each morning. The better you feel about yourself the more confident you’ll be in everything you do. If losing a few pounds is the key to your confidence, don’t be afraid to try some weight loss supplements to help you get on your way. They will help boost your energy, which will make it easy to exercise. And, the endorphins released from your workouts will boost your mood and confidence as well! Get A Makeover Sometimes something as simple as a new lipstick or a new haircut can be what you need to feel better about yourself, and that’s what confidence is all about, after all. Take a spa day and have your feet rubbed, then stop at the salon and have your hair treated to add some more color or shine, and get a fresh cut. Visit your favorite skin care/makeup store and have a facial done and get your makeup done by the professionals working there. Have them give you some fresh spring colors, and maybe even take some new stuff home with you for a fresh new look. You may also want to try a new wardrobe, or even just a couple new pieces of clothing. A new look might be just what you need to put a new smile on your face, and make more sales! Start Meditating One more boost for your confidence is finding a little spirituality. That can be through prayer, meditating, or even yoga. Take some quiet time out for yourself, recharge your batteries, and it will help you look at the world in a whole new way. Confidence is a must if you want to be a successful career woman. Instead of letting the world hold you down and letting stress take over, do what you can to boost your confidence and let that stress flow back out of you. You will be a happier person in no time. Feed Your Mind Ever notice that confident, successful people dont waste a lot of time in front of mindless T.V. shows?  Its no coincidence.  They have a regular mind diet that includes reading, and like a good diet, its balanced. Reading, watching informative or educational videos that stimulate your mind and increase your professional knowledge is just as important as physical condition.  And, when your mind is active and engaged, your confidence levels soar. Some great books have been review on Ms Career Girl lately.  Check out The 10% Entrepreneur    and 21 Days to Resilience. Keep Good Company Nationally famous speaker Jim Rohn says   “You are the average of the five people you spend the most time with.”  If youre constantly hanging out with people who have low energy or constantly dribble out negative talk, its going to have a negative effect on you. This doesnt mean you have to drop friendships.  It simply means you spend more time with those who have goals, aspirations, and confidence that makes you want to stretch for your goals and dreams.
