Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Behaving as if she felt self-confident can help Laura to develop the actual feeling of self-confidence over time. By practicing confident body language and actions, she can trick her brain into feeling more confident and eventually feel it naturally. It is not helpful to minimize situations calling for self-confidence, as this would only avoid the issue and not help Laura develop self-confidence. Telling friends about her low self-confidence may help her feel supported, but it may not necessarily lead to an improvement in her self-confidence. Frequently repeating the message, "I am the greatest," may feel forced and insincere, and may not lead to any actual improvements in self-confidence.
