― Mark Twain

“All you need in this life is ignorance and confidence; 

then success is sure.”

Confidence

Confidence isn’t walking into a room with your nose in the air, and thinking you are better than everyone else, it’s walking into a room and not having to compare yourself to anyone else in the first place.

How is it that sometimes the simple things are so sexy…

How is it that sometimes the simple things are so sexy…

A confident person who is passionate about what and how they do things is sexy. Sexy has nothing to do with what you’re wearing, how you look physically, or sex in general.

So yes, sexy is cutting the peel off an apple for the woman he loves, making tea, warming up the car for you, or even taking out the garbage. And sexy is her doing things that are meaningful to him as well.

With all the Victoria’s Secret pics circling around

With all the Victoria’s Secret pics circling around I just wanted to give a friendly reminder to not hate yourself for not looking like these women. These women are admittedly beautiful but they are not the only type of beautiful there is. Every body type should be represented in this fashion show but until society wakes up and that happens.. Put on your sexiest underwear and stand in front of the mirror and shake that gorgeous body of yours and give yourself your own goddam wings. Every body is beautiful so give yourself a hug and scroll past the images of these women that make you feel insecure because your body is amazing. Do not let them ruin your confidence you are incredible.

Optimism and Confidence

Optimism means expecting the best, but confidence means knowing how to handle the worst.

-Johnny Unitas

There is a different between conceit & confidence. Conceit is bragging. Confidence is believing you can get the job done. 

7 Helpful Tips To Immediately Increase Your Confidence by Little Glitter

1.) Ask yourself, “What’s the worst that could happen?” Too often, we place excess importance on potential problems. We all have a certain amount of energy so let’s apply it to creating extraordinary relationships, advancing our careers and meeting our goals INSTEAD of wasting that energy worrying. Take action on what you have control over and minimize risks for what you don’t. Then invest your energy wisely.

2.) In doing something for the first time, imagine that you have already done it in the past. Close your eyes, then vividly imagine you succeeding wildly at what you are really going to do for the first time. The mind does NOT know the difference between something VIVIDLY imagined and something real. Make it vivid by involving all 5 senses.

3.) Find someone who is already confident in that area and copy them. Model as many of their behaviors, attitudes, values, and beliefs for the context you want to be confident in as you can. How can you do this? Talk with them if you have access to them. If you don’t have access to them, get as much exposure to them as you can. This could be talking to people who know the person and/or buying their products if they have some.

4.) Use the “as-if” frame. I literally love this frame of mind. If you were confident, how would you be acting? How would you be moving? How would you be speaking? What would you be thinking? What would you tell yourself inside? By asking yourself these questions, you are literally forced to answer them by going into a confident state. You will then be acting “as-if” you are confident. Now just forget you are acting long enough and pretty soon you’ll develop it into a habit.

5.) Go into the future and ask if what you’re faced with is such a big deal. This might be a bit morbid and yet this works tremendously well. Imagine yourself on your deathbed looking back over your life. You are surrounded by your friends and family. You’re reviewing your life. Is what you’re faced with now even going to pop up? That’s highly unlikely. Keeping things in proper perspective really diminishes fear.

6.) Remember that you lose out on 100% of the opportunities that you never go for. To get what you want, ask for it. I fully believe that if I ask enough people for whatever I want, I can get it. This is not necessarily true and yet it’s a useful belief. As you think about your goals and what you are striving for, how effective would it be for you to believe that all the people out there want to help you if you only ask? Whether that is true or not in the “real world” does not matter. If you find that belief empowering, I invite you to adopt it as your own.

7.) Disarm the nagging, negative internal voice. That negative internal voice can keep anyone stopped. To disarm the internal voice, imagine a volume control and lower the volume. Or how about changing the internal voice to Mickey Mouse? Do you think you could take Mickey Mouse seriously if he were criticizing you? Change the voice to a clown voice. The point is to disarm the voice by altering the way it nags at you. If I hear my own voice nagging me, it stops me. If I hear a clown voice, I laugh and continue onward.

— Eleanor Roosevelt

“You gain strength, courage, and confidence by every experience in which you really stop to look fear in the face. You must do the thing which you think you cannot do.”

Confidence is a personal trait.

Confidence is a personal trait. A self-assured person doesn`t care what others think about them.
