What makes a person confident? What affects a person's confidence adversely and why is that even important? Did you know that one's childhood can have a deep impact on one's self-confidence? Have you ever wondered how a sportsperson performs repeatedly even after multiple failures? Where does that confidence come from, despite past failure? What can we learn from this? How do animals with lesser thinking capacity step out to hunt, deeply motivated, every single day, despite a previous failed attempt? Did you know that our environment can affect the ways our confidence is built every day?
Bedazzle deconstructs the core aspects of subconscious motivation in all such scenarios and handpicks the triggers to understand confidence at a deeper level so that anyone can use it to their best advantage. Successful people are often perceived as confident but it is less acknowledged that it is immense confidence that makes people successful. Author Shamoly Khera reveals multiple action plans that can aid a person in developing and maintaining consistent confidence, awakening deep motivation in the self and actualising one's full self-potential.
It's not just inner confidence, however. Portraying this externally is equally essential in dominating today's world-whether at work or in life. From your body language to your voice, the way you walk or your elevator pitch-all of it matters. Bedazzle unravels the perceptions of the human mind and how we can rewire our inner programming to reinforce positive perceptions. Because only when people master both inner and outer confidence, can they truly bedazzle!
Bedazzle by Dr. Shamoly Khera is a self help non fiction book which focuses and helps you in finding out your eternal confidence. I really needed this book and trust me when I say this, it took me some time to actually read and grasp every word of this book, because it was worth it.
The book focuses on many aspects which deal with confidence, both inner and outer. Firstly it starts with how our human mind works, then it taps the subconscious and helps us find our super powers, namely - Self Esteem, Self Worth, Self Awareness, Self Actualization, etc.
Then we also see the importance of speaking correctly, on how we say, types of voices, voice modulation, etc. Our body language is the most important part according to me in building confidence. Speaking on stage and speaking on video. The author has covered pretty much everything.
I liked how Dr. Shamoly Khera has used her own experience of TV industry in this book and helped us with her own experiences to build our own confidence. I am going to cherish this book for life, because it has taught me alot. Thanks to the author for such an informative book.

The only suggestion I would like to make is that as a reader I would have appreciated it more if there was summary at the end of the each chapter. Though different readers may have different point of views. I just felt that though including the summary would have increased the number of pages but it would have given readers a lot of ease. Having said that, I would also like to mention that absence of summary doesnot impact much on the content of the book. So , no worries.
Bedazzle by Shamoly Khera is a wonderful book that talks about how one can charm the people as they bring about a significant change in themselves. And the key is confidence -the most elusive yet the most important trait that can work wonders in anyone's life. Bedazzle draws upon the setbacks, deep-seated in our subconscious, and directs us towards treading ahead with that charming and glorious confidence.
The book is divided into 12 chapters, each further broken down into sub-topics, to better illustrate the 'art and science of eternal confidence.' The chapters focus on limiting beliefs, self-victimisation, self-actualisation, what you speak and how you speak, dressing sense, self-esteem boosters, etc. The author delivers a power-packed content as she goes on to uncover our fears, anxieties, and direct us towards becoming more confident. What I absolutely liked about the book was that it never sounded preachy to me. Moreover, as the author interestingly shared her personal experiences, the book went on to become a bedazzling read for me.
I was thoroughly impressed with the structure of the book that made use of flowcharts, as and when needed. I probably ended up loving this book because I could see myself as the author shared bits of her own life. I've always believed in the fact that we have the power to choose what we would want to be. Our present state shall not command our future if we believe in perpetual growth and learning.
The book very well hints at the times we are kids because back then, we never let our failures throw us into the abyss. We fall, we stand, we learn, we begin again. However, as we grow up, our rejections and failures cast a grave impact on us. Bedazzle helps one to believe in themselves, their innate power, their defining uniqueness, and lead a more fulfilling life. It does guide one in building their personality - be it in speaking impressively or dressing well or simply flashing a genuine smile - by using the accessible tips.
It is a kind of book I'd go back to in future and would definitely recommend it to all. Learn how to bedazzle others with the right blend of art and science :)

Confidence. The most important part of our day to day life and yet so many people are under confident in public. I don't believe in "Fake it till you make it" anymore because for faking too, I need to have some self confidence.

I loved how each example is described relevantly to the context of each concept. This makes the book very interesting and very hard to put down!

#QOTD: What's the aspect/thing that motivates you when you feel lack of confidence?
Bedazzle by Shamoly Khera is a wonderful self help book I came across while browsing books through Amazon.
🌸The book is divided into 12 chapters which are further divided according to the sub-topics related to that chapter.
🌸The book has covered all the topics of becoming self confident from the very initial life stage with the metamorphosis of the infant mind, to gradually unprogramming the programmed mind in childhood and slowly but steadily building up confidence.
🌸The author has left no stone unturned by including detailed topics covering all the aspects which matter for confidence boosting from the speech, way of speaking, body language to dressing.
🌸There has been generous use of examples be it from the author's personal life or any other person but for me the best part was I could relate myself to the examples mentioned since the very first chapter!
🌸At the end of the book you'll definitely believe that you can be want you want to be, it is just efforts which need to be put in the right direction.
🌸There has been thorough research before writing the book, which clearly shows in the ample of quotations mentioned in the book.

Seldom have I come across self-help books that have actually helped me. Shamoly Khera's Bedazzle is a book exchusively about honing your confidence and shining bright out there in the world. As the tag line of the book says, 'the art and science of eternal confidence', the author does dissect every aspect - from A to Z - of confidence.
The book covers a whole lot of tips and tricks to improve self-confidence. From how to modulate voice, how to initiate a conversation, body language, what to do with your hands (this was personally very helpful to me) while talking, how to decode eye gaze, how to dress up, and even how to make a powerful PowerPoint presentation - this book covers everything! This book is your go-to book when you need a boost for yourself. And to make the book much more captivating, Dr. Khera gives so many movie (especially, Bollywood) references to give situational examples.
One part that would be particularly important to the people of Instagram/Youtube, is the part where the author talks about how we can use social media to improve our social skills. Just like modern problems need modern solutions, Dr. Khera tackles so many worries of GenZ through social media tips and tricks. This is one non-fiction that should be in everyone's shelves. A must recommendation from me.
Bedazzle is dedicated to discussing the importance of self-evaluation and the art of analyzing things from ones perspective. This is a well-researched study on the concepts of self-belief, self-evaluation and mending things to control the subconscious. This simply trying to make you understand the importance of self-analyzing things in helping you understand the life is not all about miseries if put through properly. And helps you see the bigger picture. The concepts are cited by the previous
It cites the concepts of well-researched work with an unique list of examples like how does the environment plays a key role in engaging the character development and how does one improve the muscle memory and focus ?
Self-belief is a higher concept often neglected by the individuals in engaging themselves to analyze things for their peace of mind and growth. Bedazzle takes on the concept of tackling sub-consciousness in a subtle and simpler way. This is for the individual's who lack self-esteem and often judge their abilities in tackling things. This also gives little work space in giving a kick start on how to keep the track of progress and help set new goals for them. What a simpler way to make the individual understand the importance of it without making it too complicated. I rate it 5 and recommend it.
"Successful people are often perceived as confident but it is less acknowledged that it is immense confidence that makes people successful."
"Bedazzle" means " to be highly impressed with outstanding ability/personality". The book name itself suggests that the book is all about "how to enhance your personality?"

This book provides a step-by-step guide to eternal confidence. I feel the author and I share a lot of similarities while growing up, she and I, both come under the nerd group of the class, we both thought 1000 times before approaching someone. Well, this book was truly a need of an hour, trust me when I say I need this, I do. While looking at some people it looks so flawless, how conversation comes to them while I was sitting on the first bench with my nerd glasses, reading a book. The only difference between her and me was, she decided to work upon herself in college, and changed, while in my case I was the same. This book works step by step first on your internal self and then external. First, this focuses on how the human mind works and then slowly and steadily on our subconscious mind and then to our outer self. The author has shared quite some of her personal incidents too, The book is well-researched and I really like this book because the steps given in this book are quite practical rather than theoretical. The chapter that had the most influence on me was the Power of dressing and How to make a video. The language is lucid and flowy. The cover of this book is simple yet beautiful. I recommend this book to everyone who lacks confidence and feels shy while approaching anyone to talk. I have read a nonfiction book after ages and I absolutely loved it.
🍁 In the age of social media, where the portrayed perfection and confidence by the so-called influencers have changed the perception of the term 'confidence' among the commoners, it is getting harder for the current generation to build self-confidence. The book focuses on the importance of self-confidence and how one can build it.
🍁 The book is divided into 12 chapters with well-thought titles. It begins by explaining how the mind has been pre-programmed to hold fear within. The author briefly discusses the source of confidence in everyone and how it can lead one to their success. She then brings forth the importance of self-awareness, self-worth, and self-esteem.
🍁 The book continues to show, in detail, how we can slowly build confidence by focusing on our environment, boosting our esteem, voice modulation, body language, and dressing appropriately. However, believing in yourself and committing to self-expansion is the first most step in gaining eternal confidence in public.

Bedazzle by Shemoly Khera tells about the art and science of confidence in today’s world. The book is divided into 12 chapters, all of them are very well explained. The author has provided different scenarios to understand confidence at a deeper level so that anyone can use it to their best advantage. Her personal experiences have made the book more relatable. The book focuses on many aspects such as Finding your superpower, Esteem Boosters, Body Language, Speaking on stage, and few others. It has a lot of interesting case studies and graphs which are good enough to explain how developing and maintaining consistent confidence plays an important role. Some of my favorite excerpts from the book – • “You get to choose who you want to be.” • “The conscious mind’s capacity to override the subconscious mind’s programmed behavior is the foundation of free will.” • “I chose to be who I wanted to be.” Takeaways from the book – 1. You can be whoever you want to be, starting today. 2. You have got to define what confidence means to you and make it a part of you. 3. You don’t need to achieve something to be confident. Potential is good enough.
Bedazzle, is written beautifully in 278 pages by author Ms. Shamoly Khera Personal Transformation. Though, this book has been written in the non-fiction genre and talks about gaining our eternal confidence. The author has beautifully squeezed her entire experience of life to write this book. I personally believe that everyone would have felt under-confident someway or others in their lives in any aspect of our lives. " Confidence is the best outfit someone can wear."

Every chapter has its uniqueness to hold and value to share with its readers. I have enjoyed every chapter of this book thoroughly, however, I had personally listed down my favorites below.

Since childhood,We are trained to choose a relatively safer option when it comes to Decision-making. As a consequence,most of us lack on confidence especially at times of confluence between passion and perfection.

A lot of useful insights and action plans on to grooming our personality development has been listed down by the author.I was able to connect myself with many of the situational problems mentioned in the book. The solution-based approach can definitely be applied in our real-life difficulties too.
