Give Your Self-Confidence a Boost

Tip
Do you have a hard time voicing your thoughts at work, even — especially — when you want to? You’re not alone. The important thing to remember is that your lack of confidence isn’t an inherent flaw. Confidence can be learned and practiced. Here are a couple of steps to help you get started.
Step 1: Connect with yourself. Take the time to understand who you are, where your motivations lie, and what makes you unique, because there’s literally no one else who will share your particular point of view. You have something important to share, no matter how obvious or uninspiring it may seem to you.
Step 2: Focus on building confident behaviors (such as speaking up in a meeting or asserting yourself when someone interrupts you). Don’t worry if that doesn’t happen overnight; any mindset shift is going to take time. So, start small and be deliberate about each effort. Don’t expect change to happen overnight. Confidence is a muscle!

🇨🇳 提升你的自信
你在工作中很难说出自己的想法，特别是在你想说的时候吗？你并不孤单。需要记住的重要一点是，你缺乏自信并非天生的缺陷。自信是可以学习和练习的。这里有几个步骤来帮助你开始。第一步：了解自己。花时间去了解你是谁，你的动机在哪里，你的独特之处在哪里，因为从字面上看，没有人会同意你的观点。你有一些重要的东西要分享，不管它对你来说是多么明显或令人沮丧。
第二步:专注于建立自信的行为(比如在会议上发言或在有人打断你时坚持自己的观点)。如果这不是一夜之间发生的，也不要担心;任何心态的转变都需要时间。所以，从小事做起，仔细考虑每一次努力。不要期待一夜之间就会发生变化。自信就是力量！
