Confidence: Your Practical Training: How to Develop Healthy Self Esteem and Deep Self Confidence to Be Successful and Become True Friends with Yourself

by Ian Tuhovsky

Have you ever given up on your plans, important goals, and dreams not because you just decided to focus on something else, but simply because you were too SCARED or hesitant to even start, or stick up to the plan and keep going?
Are you afraid of starting your own business or asking for a promotion? Petrified of public speaking, socializing, dating, taking up new hobbies, or going to job interviews? Can you imagine how amazing and relieving it would feel to finally obtain all the self-esteem needed to accomplish things you've always wanted to achieve in your life?
Finally, have you ever found yourself in a situation where you simply couldn’t understand WHY you acted in a certain way, or why you kept holding yourself back and feeling all the bad emotions, instead of just going for what’s the most important to you?
Due to early social conditioning and many other influences, most people on this planet are already familiar with all these feelings.
WAY TOO FAMILIAR!
I know how it feels, too. I was in the same exact place.
And then, I found the way!
From becoming your own boss or succeeding in your career, through dating and socializing, to starting new hobbies, standing up for yourself or maybe finally packing your suitcase and going on this Asia trip you promised yourself decades ago…
All too often, people fail in these quests as they aren’t equipped with the natural and lasting self-confidence to deal with them in a proper way.
Confidence is not useful only in everyday life and casual situations. Do you really want to fulfill your wildest dreams, or do you just want to keep chatting about them with your friends, until one day you wake up as a grumpy, old, frustrated person?
If you want to act bravely, you need to be confident.
Along with lots of useful, practical exercises, this book will provide you with plenty of new information that will help you understand what confidence problems really come down to. And this is the most important and the saddest part, because most people do not truly recognize the root problem, and that’s why they get poor results.
☑️How, when, and why society robs us all of natural confidence and healthy self-esteem.
☑️What kind of social and psychological traps you need to avoid in order to feel much calmer, happier, and more confident.
☑️What “natural confidence” means and how it becomes natural.
☑️What “self-confidence” really is and what it definitely isn’t (as opposed to what most people think!).
☑️How your mind hurts you when it really just wants to help you, and how to stop the process.
☑️What different kinds of fear we feel, where they come from, and how to defeat them.

☑️How to use stress to boost your inner strength.

First book for me to read about how to be self confident and make your self-esteem, the author wrote that book based on his experience, studying sociology, and meeting alot of people all over the world, so the book is realistic and containig some useful exercises to train your self and be self-confident and get self-esteem from people around you.

Here are some quotes:

- If you want to change anything serious in your life, you have to face the truth. You are on your own.
- No one will do what has to be done for you.
- In fact, we don't even deserve such fundamental rights as equal treatment under the law, because after all, if we don't fight for it, we don't get it.
- Compare your life to your own life.
- Confidence flows from one area of your life to another.
- Thinking will not overcome fear, but action will."W. Clement Stone"
- There are no failures, there's just feedback.
- If you want to increase your success rate, double your failure rate. "Thomas J. Watson"
- No one can make you feel inferior without your consent
- Going on missions is the best and fastest way to boost your confidence.
- Whether you think you can, or you think you can't _ you're right. " Henry Ford"
- If you compare, you will never be happy.
- Quit playing the role of victim and take ultimate responsibility for your life. That's the only way.
- But the truth is, movement is life and you need it. If you're an adult and you ignore it, it's frankly pathetic.
- When your attention is on somebody else's life, you can't do anything.
- Balance is the key.

This one is too Oprah for me. It is a real 'believe and achieve' book. The challenge I have with the book is that it is self absorbed and attempts to generalize individual narratives to a collective strategy.

There are some 'nice' techniques. Stay in the present. Mindfulness. Visualization.

But techniques like this are the equivalent of critiquing capitalism by going shopping. It is pointless.
