Rebuilding Lack Of Self Confidence

By Trevor Johnson

Self confidence defined easily is basically the way one feels about himself/herself. It is not a difficult task to spot a person who possesses a lack of self confidence. It is noticeable in the way they present themselves, treat others, relate to others and act around others. Such an individual may reflect lack of self esteem in various ways. It is important for someone with low self confidence to recognize the problem so they may get the help needed to feel good about who they are and to be confident.

It is not too hard to know a person has lack of self confidence. They may speak negative words about themselves and others. Physically, they may not dress as they really should. They may not put in any special effort in the workplace and it will reflect on their job performance and evaluations. Not having confidence can also be seen physically as the person may neglect taking care of themselves. Sometimes help has to be sought in order to gain self confidence.

A person with a lack of self confidence also endures mental and emotional challenges as well. A person who lacks self confidence usually becomes or has been sad and it may take a very long time for the individual to start seeing the brighter side of life. The person may feel hopeless, disappointed, frustrated, etc. For some time and may require professional help from a counselor, social worker, minister or psychiatrist to find methods to feel hopeful and confident again.

They may speak negative words about themselves and others. Physically, they may not dress as they really should. They may not put in any special effort in the workplace and it will reflect on their job performance and evaluations. Not having confidence can also be seen physically as the person may neglect taking care of themselves. Sometimes help has to be sought in order to gain self confidence.

As soon as a person gains self confidence, their attitudes change. They are more eager to participate in activities, more excited to speak in public, not afraid to take charge of tasks and assignments and on a daily basis keep trying to reinforce what they have learned while gaining their self confidence back again. Social life, work life and personal life all improves.

As soon as a person who is not confident gets out of denial about the problem and seeks help, the sooner they can have some confidence and display it in their daily life. A person can be deceitful about having confidence but many catch on to the act quickly. It is a myth that someone can not gain self confidence once they lose it because with the right support network and the support of family and friends, it can be done. Life is more blissful with happiness and self confidence in place. - 31984
