Our self-confidence is at a record high when we’re infants. This is mainly because we haven’t yet started noticing judgments. Whether we’re dumb or smart, good-looking or plain; we simply don’t care about looking cute, an epidemic that Snapchat is making billions off of.
There’s a lot to say about how those pretty filters are detrimental for your self-esteem but that’s a conversation for another day. The point is, we’re confident about ourselves because we haven’t built up impossible expectations, yet.
In fact, a majority of the scientists concur that basic human emotions are not learned, they’re rather innate.
More importantly, we haven’t been alive long enough to get accustomed to judgments, fears, and limitations of our society. Good old days, right? But for most of us, the innocence fades away very quickly.
By the time we’re in grade school, the notion of self-confidence is earned has already taken roots. If the general consensus in the school, town, or the city, isn’t that you’re pretty, you won’t feel that way. Same goes for feeling smart or athletic, but should it really be that way?
Until the label is stamped onto you by the society, you don’t have the permission to feel confident. So basically, it’s all about having proof for it. But that’s the real Catch-22 here: we won’t be able to do certain things until we have the self-confidence to do so.
So if a socially awkward person pushes himself/herself to attend a party, the result will most likely be what he expected. So what did we learn so far?
Confidence Comes From Not What You Do But Who You Are
The truth is that our confidence doesn’t stem from the things we do but is instead determined by who we are. It’s purely based on our beliefs and perceptions about ourselves.
It all comes down to this at the end, to look confident, you have to feel confident. But how do you feel confident? You can get your conscious mind to think you’re confident, that’s the easy part.
But feeling confident is all about getting your subconscious mind to feel that confidence flowing through your body. But how do you tell your subconscious mind to do anything? Let alone feeling confident all the time.
Hypnosis – Boosting Your Confidence For The Long Term
