Believe it or not, some of the most prosperous folk you see are introverts. How did they use their introversion to their advantage and attain success in an industry that appears geared toward loud, outgoing folk?
Here are four easy steps that can be helpful.
1. Affirmation.
The most vital thing is to triumph in the fight of perspective. Affirmation are basically positive things that you are saying out loud to oneself every day. This is very tricky at times because you may not actually believe what you are claiming. So why would you say something to yourself that you don't believe? Increased confidence to step out has to start with you. Therefore if you're shy and intimidated by folk, start to say something similar to the following: "I am NOT shy and I am Not threatened by folk. I am Extremely confident when I get around people."
Repeat this to oneself aloud at least 10 times before you leave your room. When you say this, don't simply mumble it either, say it as many times as necessary till you say it with eagerness and conviction.
2. Read to grow.
Again, heightened confidence starts with you. Read something everyday for at least 30 minutes which will help you increase your self-image. This can be an article, a book, or even an audio series. The more that you learn the more you will grow. The more that you grow, the more your self-confidence will improve.
3. Do something every day.
Do something each day, starting with something small, that directly deals with your low self confidence. For instance, if you can't talk with folk as you feel insecure and inferior, just start by saying 'Hi'. As you get more comfy with this, then begin to make chit-chat. You will begin to feel more confident and more confident till one day, you will find that you have overcome low self image in that area.
4. Stop the destructive feelings.
Negative thoughts are like land mines. As soon as you step out to face your fear, a negative thought comes and tells you that you can't do it and BOOM; you think it and lose that round. As an alternative diffuse destructive thoughts before they have got a chance to do damage.
A good way to do this is with an elastic band! Put an elastic band around your wrist. Every time a idea comes into your head that tells you that you can't do something, you will never succeed, or anything negative, SNAP the elastic band on your wrist.
You could be snapping that band till your wrist is red and sore. Before long though, you may stop the destructive feelings because you do not want to harm your wrist any more.
These steps will help you increase your self image and become even more assured stepping out. Just remember this: you aren't going to modify over night. It will take some time but as long as you are progressing, you are on your way to success.
