10 Statements to Boost Your Confidence

ByAbelFilho

I’m not a big believer in positive affirmations. I find repeating phrases over and over to myself doesn’t work for me.

However there are times when a positive statement can really give you a boost and help you carry on when you’re struggling.

 

So here’s a list of phrases I’ve found useful in overcoming my self-doubts when they appear:

  1. “I can’t control my thoughts but I can choose my reaction to them”
  2. “Failing is part of the journey to success”
  3. “Having confidence isn’t about not being scared, it’s about putting yourself out there anyway”
  4. “You can’t change the other person but you can change your reaction to them”
  5. “Whether you think you can or think you can’t, you’re right” (Henry Ford)
  6. “Do, or not do, there is no try” (Yoda)
  7. “It’s not something you should do but something you could do”
  8. “If you change nothing, nothing will change” (Tony Robbins)
  9. “You wouldn’t worry what others think about you, if you realised how seldom hey do” (Eleanor Rossevelt)
  10. “If the mountain you want to climb is overwhelming take it one molehill at a time”

 

I hope some of these statements resonate with you. They are helpful to boost your confidence when you’re struggling with self-doubt.

Good luck
