Day 9: Exercise. Just Do It, Now #ConfidentYou
All those happy, go you feelings will travel with you. It’s good for your muscles and emotions and more. There is no down side when it comes to exercise. Well, unless you count face planting off treadmills, which I totally do. Exercise is good for the old body, for peace of mind and clarity, for…

Day 8: Be Grateful #ConfidentYou
We all have something we can be grateful for. Something that lights us up and makes taking those first steps into the world in the morning worthwhile. Use this gratitude as kindling for your confidence. You ARE someone that good things happen to. You ARE someone who can be delivered wonderful things. That’s where the…

Day 7: Find a Role Model #ConfidentYou
You know that person. Thoooooose people. You pass them in the street, see them on TV or have known them your entire life, the people who just oooooze confidence. You see them walk into a room, head high and striding through the door and you think, wow! Those people. Or maybe for you it’s a…

Day 6: Hold Your Head High #ConfidentYou
If you met me today you would probably describe me as warm, welcoming, huggable, soft, squishy even. This hasn’t always been the case. There was a time when if you were to choose a word to describe me you probably would have chosen intimidating, aloof, closed, hard and cold. You see my way of protecting…

Day 5: Presentation Time #ConfidentYou
There was this one night that something shifted for me. I had shoulder length orange/blonde hair, badly fitting jeans and an old cardigan on. I’d had a few drinks with my sister, her partner and my husband and we were heading OUT. I added some heels to my outfit and felt okay. Good enough, I…

Day 4: Clean Up Your Life #ConfidentYou
Less than a month ago I confessed that our lives had gotten out of control. The tax returns hadn’t been filed in almost three years, the junk was piling up and even the dishes seemed to be getting done a little less regularly. Life was winning and beating us down with its stuff to do.…

Day 3: Find a Cheer Squad #ConfidentYou
Find people who love you. Or think you’re ok at least. And tell them of your mission for more confidence. This alone will take something. Telling people that you are working on your confidence takes admitting that it needs work. I’d always been quiet good at putting on a brave front. A plastered face of…

Day 2: You Are Here #ConfidentYou
This is the first of the challenges that will be scattered through the posts. This IS the You Are Here Quiz. In more boring language you could consider this to be a self audit. A reflection on everything you are, that you aren’t and that you hope to be. It’s time to set some goals for this…

Day 1: Be Kind – #ConfidentYou
How are you feeling today? No, I’m asking. Take a moment before you answer. HOW ARE YOU FEELING? Are you feeling moderately confident or not at all? Wondering why you clicked over here when you feel like you could never, ever have more confidence than you have now? Or maybe you were here and didn’t…
