Get the Confidence Boost You Need
If you want to get the confidence boost you need, consider adding a workout program to your daily activities. While reading motivational books and practicing their teachings may help, if something is still missing, exercising may be the answer.
When you workout, several things happen. The first is that you burn off the hormones created by stress that leave you feeling unsure, uncomfortable and sometimes fearful. It can help immediately. These hormones come from the fight or flight response created by stress, which was excellent when stress came from an attack by a wild animal or enemy, where running or fighting was important, but not so great when it comes from a crying baby, traffic jam or angry boss.
Build Muscles and Lose Weight
You'll start to notice the excess pounds fall off your body. That can be a huge confidence boost. Your clothing will fit looser even if you don't lose weight. That's because muscle tissue weighs more per cubic inch than fat tissue does, so the more muscular you are, the thinner you look. Better yet, the more muscle you start to develop, the easier it is to lose weight. Muscle tissue also requires more calories for maintenance, so essentially, you'll be boosting your metabolism.
Walk Taller With Better Posture
Being fit gives you presence. That statement could also read being fit gives you “presence”. The first presence is the commanding posture you'll develop that speaks louder than any words. It's the posture you build and the way you carry yourself that says you're in charge. Of course, the second presence is all the gifts of good health and feeling of well being that comes with regular exercise.
Strong and More Confident
The stronger you feel, the more confidence you seem to have. Not only will you walk taller and look more confident, you'll feel more confident too.
For example, consider the case of a woman who worked in a male dominated occupation in sales. She knew she had to bring more to the table than they did. She was small, but ready to make the most of everything she had available. Part of her plan was to become stronger, even though the job was more mental than physical. Not only did that make her feel more confident, it made her look more confident. Clients recognized that confidence and it boosted her sales beyond her male competitors.
