Having confidence is a huge advantage in careers, life, and relationships. It’s the key to attracting the right job, the right people, the right decisions from others, and getting what we want.
Like money, everyone wants more confidence. Some people naturally seem to have it; perhaps they were lucky and had the right kind of parenting. In any case, knowing a few strategies for improving our self-confidence will ensure that we can tap into its power.
Everyone has a baseline of confidence. Some people have unshakable confidence built upon strong foundations; others find their confidence level is a bit shaky when faced with mistakes, criticisms and failures.
Confidence is closely tied with our sense of self-esteem. Self-esteem enables us to experience ourselves not only accurately but gladly. It’s a realistic, appreciative opinion; we are able to be honest about our strengths, weaknesses and everything in between, and still feel good about who we are.
This article examines the foundations of self-esteem, how we lose confidence, and how to restore it by reframing automatic negative thoughts.
The article includes these concepts:
- Foundations of Self-Esteem
- Unconditional Worth
- Unconditional Love
- Growth
- How We Lose Confidence
- Getting Rid of Negativity

You can build a better brain at any age. With the advent of fMRI brain scanning techniques, we now know that brains are continually learning and growing new neurons.
Because of centuries of ignorance, however, many people view our brains as a mysterious structure incapable of change. We’ve been told that our IQ’s are fixed, or that “we’re too old to learn new tricks.”
Our brains are subject to change no matter what we do. What sets successful people apart from those who are less so is the desire to take charge of the brain’s continual learning process.
In their book The Winner’s Brain, authors Jeff Brown and Mark Fenske write about strategies great minds use to achieve success. Contrary to popular belief, high achievement has very little to do with IQ, your financial resources, knowing the right people or even luck.
Resilience and motivation are two critical abilities that highly successful people strengthen through repeated practice. The brains of successful people “light up” differently and work more efficiently than others because they’ve developed resilience and their ability to tap into motivation.
This article presents four strengths of what can be called “winners’ brains,” and eight strategies for improving your brain for success in work and life.
