Self confidence can be learned. It isn’t simply a trait that is with you when you are born. Further, 
it is regarded as among the key traits in achieving your goals. You need to have belief in yourself on trust your own actions and decisions.
There is a variety of methods and ways to improve self esteem and self confidence. You will need to pursue these methods if you really wish to purse self-confidence and become a strong character with a willful mind.
Don’t strive to be perfect
One of the main causes of failure when it comes to self-confidence is the refusal to accept flaws. They obsessively attempt to change anything that they believe doesn’t flatter them and then imitate somebody who they perceive as being ideal. Role models are all find but not to the degree that it causes negative thoughts, such as jealousy and envy. It only leads to frustration.
To feel confident in yourself, you need to accept that you have flaws. There will be thing that show off your limitations and there will e those times when life is not going how you planned. Don’t strive for perfection as it will cause you to procrastinate and result in you being that much further from achieving your goals. Be happy with who you are and make improvements without worrying whether or not they will improve.
Stand up for your beliefs
There may be times when you external situations test your beliefs and principals. Somewhere on the way, you may find yourself losing confidence and and doubting whether your beliefs are still worth having.
You should bear in mind that there are no right or wrong beliefs and principals. They are based on how you perceive and interpret the world. Therefore, those beliefs impact you positively or negatively based on how you react to them. People will always have their own opinions on what you believe in and there will be those who insist on giving their two pennys worth. It is up to you to stand strong in the face of criticism. If you believe strongly enough in your principals, outside opinions will have little effect upon you.
Don’t let failure defeat you
You will experience a wide range of emotions in life. There will be times when you feel happy and there will those days when you feel that nothing is going to go right. However, when failure builds upon failure, things can start to get on top of you and all sorts of negative thoughts will be running through your mind. So be prepared for those times in advance and realise that you can’t change the inevitable. There will always be low moments: they happen to everyone.
Self-confidence can really only be achieved, however, by applying this advice in the midst of your own social circle. You need to become immersed in life if you are ever really to find the best of you.
