Self-assured people believe in their ability to succeed.
They say to themselves:“How can others believe in me if I myself cannot believe in myself? »
Looking to lead your life with more confidence and optimism?
So start by learning the 15 things confident people never do.
Self-confident people take full ownership of their actions.
If they're late for work, it's not because of traffic jams:they're late, period.
If they have a flaw or a shortcoming, they won't look for an excuse like “I don't have time” or “I'm not strong enough”.
Instead, they'll find the time and they'll keep improving — until they can achieve their goals.
Confident people don't let fear take over their goals.
They are fully aware that these are precisely the things that we fear that we must try to achieve.
Nietzsche said "what doesn't kill makes you stronger".
In other words:the things we fear will help us grow into the person we want to be.
Confident people avoid the “comfort zone”.
Why ? Because they know that this bubble of comfort is the best place to kill their ambitions.
This is why they actively pursue a feeling of discomfort.
Self-confident people understand that pushing their own limits is a necessary step towards success.
For self-confident people, a good plan executed today is better than an excellent plan that must be waited to be executed.
They don't wait for the "ideal" moment or "favorable circumstances" to implement their ambitions.
They have understood that, in these decisive moments, the only thing that holds them back is the fear of change.
When they choose to act, there is only one moment to move forward:it's here, it's now, and it's today!
Self-confident people don't dwell on the negative reactions of others.
That doesn't mean they don't care about the well-being of others. On the contrary, they actively seek to make a positive contribution to the world.
On the other hand, confident people know that it is useless to worry about negative opinions that they will not be able to change.
Instead, they focus on getting loved ones to accept them for who they are. And for the rest, they simply choose not to worry about it:they prefer to move on.
Self-confident people have no tolerance for unnecessary judgments about others.
As a result, they don't feel the need to break sugar on the backs of their friends or participate in gossip about their colleagues.
Likewise, they won't go after people who don't share their opinions.
In fact, confident people are so comfortable with themselves that they feel no need to look down on others.
Confident people know how to take advantage of the resources at their disposal — no matter how modest.
They know that with a little creativity and perseverance, anything is possible!
And, above all, they will not give up following a failure. Instead, they choose to focus on finding a solution.
Self-confident people know that they are not in competition with others.
The only person they can compete with is the person they were yesterday.
They know that each woman and each man represents an individual story. A story so unique that it would be absurd and reductive to try to compare it to someone else's.
Confident people don't try to charm everyone they meet.
They are fully aware of the fact that you cannot please everyone. That's life.
Instead of focusing on the quantity of their acquaintances, they prefer to focus on the quality of their friendships and close relationships.
Confident people don't seek to be held.
They know that life is sometimes unfair, and things don't always go as planned.
On the other hand, despite the fact that they cannot control every event in their lives, they know that there is one thing they can always control:their attitude.
Indeed, confident people realize the power of reacting positively — so that they always move forward.
Confident people know to deal with life's problems as soon as they arise — before they get too big.
They understood that if we wait a few hours, a few days or a few weeks, an unresolved problem will inevitably create others.
For example, they know that it is better to have a difficult conversation with your partner now than to put it off until tomorrow.
Why ? Because by postponing this kind of conversation to the next day, we risk compromising the couple's trust.
Confident people always get up after a fall.
They know that failure is an integral part of success.
After a failure, they turn into detectives, carrying out a meticulous investigation:why did their strategy not work?
Failure will allow them to improve their approach — and try again to achieve their goal.
Self-confident people act without hesitation.
Every day, they remind themselves:“If I don't act, who will do it for me? »
Self-confident people don't stick to just one strategy.
They know to use all possible means at their disposal.
Therefore, they will vigorously test the effectiveness of each strategy in their "toolbox".
Their goal ? It's about finding the strategy that gives the best result for the least cost, in terms of time and effort.
For confident people, an article read on the Internet is not an absolute truth.
When they read an article that offers advice, they will analyze it from their own perspective.
They know how to show skepticism and pragmatism:that is, they retain only what is relevant to their own life and, with regard to the rest, they eliminate it. As simple as that!
Take this article as an example:confident people know that this type of article is an interesting mental exercise.
On the other hand, they know that they are the only ones to decide what “being self-confident” really means! It is therefore up to them to complete the elements of this article that they choose to retain.
