couldn’t and allowed his friends to help. How much would his stress have been reduced if he had called on people sooner?
4. Data
When you are in the middle of achieving something, it is harder to see how far you have come because all you are focusing on is how far you have to go. I believe it is important to keep track of how many speaking engagements, promotions, followers, subscribers, views, clients, etc. that you have.
If you are constantly hitting your goals, doing things few or no one in your life has ever done before or constantly killing it in life, you need to be aware so you can do a number of the next tasks.

5. Reward Yourself
It is important to reward yourself. Now when I say reward yourself it can be lipstick, nail polish, a tool for your business, or a big-ticket item. Every time you reward yourself should not break the bank.
However, when you are hitting milestones, you must be able to stop and smell the roses. Rewarding yourself not only is a major pick me up, but you are able to enjoy yourself, your hard work and in return, it will build your confidence.
6. Look Good
One of the most common symptoms I hear when people talk about depression is they are unable to get out the bed. Getting out of bed and putting yourself together just does something to the soul. The old saying goes, when you look good you feel good. For me, when I look good, I feel confident. Confident that people will respect me, I will close the deal and my cocky has been turned up a notch.
What are some of your confidence boosters??
