Twelve Rules for Building Confidence

Twelve Rules For Building Confidence

By Alan Loy McGinnis

Reading a book titled "Confidence (how to succeed at being yourself" by Alan Loy McGinnis
 
Below are 12 rules that Mr.McGinnis share to help build confidence. I'm enjoying the book so far. Found it at a hospital's book store for $3.00.

  1. Focus on your potential instead of your limitations
  2. Determine to know the truth about your self
  3. Distinguish between who you are and what you do
  4. Find something you like to do and do well, then do it over and over
  5. Replace self criticism with regular, positive self talk
  6. Replace fear of failure with clear pictures of yourself functioning successfully and happily
  7. Dare to be a little eccentric
  8. Make the best possible peace with your parents
  9. Determine to intergrate the body and spirit
  10. Determine to live above neurotic guilt
  11. Cultivate people who help you grow
  12. Resuse to allow rejection to keep you from taking the initiative with people
