High Self Esteem – 10 Things Confident People DON’T DO
Want to know the key to a high self esteem? Here are 10 things that confident people don’t do (so please avoid these!)
Let’s chat about how to have a high self esteem.
Confident people often have a high self esteem for a very good reason. They just don’t DO and think certain things, they also AVOID thinking and doing certain things.
So if you want to have a higher self esteem and more confidence, consider avoiding these things, too.
Not convinced? Think of it this way – it’s easier to climb a mountain without carrying a rock, right? Your emotional baggage is unnecessary weight that you need to immediately let go of and stop carrying.
So once you drop the habits and other behaviors that burden your ability to feel confident, it will in turn increase your self esteem. Without these obstacles getting in your way, you’ll create a new ceiling for your confidence levels and it will be LIMITLESS.
I challenge you to make it as easy as possible to have confidence in yourself. And you can do so by avoiding these confidence-destroying traps.
HIGH SELF ESTEEM TIPS
1 – Negative self-talk.
Trust me, you can’t feel confident and say negative things to yourself.
If you want to feel positive about yourself, it helps to have a positive outlook.
Negative thoughts drain away positive emotions, including the positive feeling of confidence.

2 – Self-criticism.
Remind yourself of your successes every day and keep self-criticism at bay.
Be your own best friend and supporter.
I mean, who else are you going to love and support, if not yourself?

3 – People that sabotage them.
Most of the people in your life don’t want to see your success rise too far above their own.
I spoke all about that in this post.
If you want to maximize your self-confidence, it’s best to avoid these people as much as possible.
HIGH SELF ESTEEM TIPS
4 – Complaining.
Complaining is insidious.
It suggests that you can’t fix the challenges in your life.
Instead of complaining, work on a solution. This is something that people with high self esteem do.
Know in your heart that you can handle any challenge in your life and do it.
HIGH SELF ESTEEM TIPS
5 – Seeking attention.
Confident people with high self esteem don’t need a lot of attention from others.
If you’re confident in yourself, you’ll be too busy taking care of business to worry if others are paying attention.
Only those lacking in confidence need attention and approval.
HIGH SELF ESTEEM TIPS
6 – Worrying about what others are doing.
Be confident that you have a good plan and are capable of executing it.
Let everyone wonder what you’re doing instead of worrying about what they’re doing.
HIGH SELF ESTEEM TIPS
7 – Allowing a lack of information or certainty to stop them.
People that lack confidence need 100% certainty.
Those that are confident with high self esteem can take action with far less than complete information.
70% is usually enough to get started.
Be confident and get busy.
HIGH SELF ESTEEM TIPS
8 – Avoiding making decisions.
Rash decisions usually turn out poorly but taking too long to make a decision is ineffective, too.
Confident people make decisions more quickly and easily than those that are lacking in confidence.
Indecisiveness is just a form of procrastination.
HIGH SELF ESTEEM TIPS
9 – Relying on luck.
Luck is for those without the confidence to take responsibility.
Wish, hope, or pray all you like, but keep moving your feet.
Confident people with high self esteem will take luck when they get it, but they don’t rely on it.
They know they will succeed without it.
HIGH SELF ESTEEM TIPS
10 – Making excuses.
Excuses are a way for those without confidence to justify quitting.
If you’re confident, you don’t look for excuses.
You look for solutions and then implement them.
If you catch yourself making excuses, ask yourself why you’re doing it.
How confident are you?
What would happen if you could become the most confident person you know?
How would your life be different if you had a higher self esteem?
Be honest -t he difference in your life would probably be staggering.
Confident people avoid certain things.
If you want to be confident, it makes sense to avoid those same things.
How confident do you want to be?
If the answer is A LOT MORE CONFIDENT then make sure to avoid the ten things mentioned in this post.
