Confidence：you’ve either got it or you haven’t, right? Wrong．Most people learn confidence as they go through life．

Even if you are shaking like a leaf on the inside, you’ll make a lasting impression if you can come across as confident．Here are some confidence-building tips：

Fake(偽造) it! If you can pretend that       when you don’t and keep on doing so, your fake confidence will soon turn into real confidence．It only takes a few repetitions of an activity for it to become a habit—so get in the habit of faking self-belief．

Think it．For an instant encouragement to yourself-esteem(自尊心), recall three things that give you positive emotions．It could be a great compliment(稱贊)somebody paid you, a special time when you felt happy and popular, or when you really excelled(超過別人)at something．Bring them to mind will help you to feel good instantly—and when you feel good, you have greater confidence．

Focus it．Difficult situations, such as interviews or new jobs, can make you feel shy．If you're feeling anxious about yourself, stop thinking about you and focus on something else．It could be that you focus on something normal, like the view out of the window, or that you pay more attention to the task at hand—getting the job! Either way, you’ll feel less awkward．

Talk it．If you keep telling yourself that you’re no good at something, you’ll start to believe it．Next time you blame yourself, ask yourself whether you’d talk to your friends like that：So quit being negative and start recognizing and appreciating the things you are good at．

Walk it．Great posture(姿勢) can signal great confidence．Walk with a purposeful stride(大踏步), walk with your back straight and with your head held up high!
