Beleive in yourself. Make your own decision. Trust yourself. Love yourself. Be proud of yourself and decisions you have made (Specially the right decisions). Learn from your mistakes and improve your shortfalls. Listen to others and learn from their experiences. Know that you are as capable as others. Everyone makes mistakes, it is the one who learns from it that rises higher in life.

Confidence is a quality that makes your life a lot more better.\nTo be confident,you must think positive.You must not underestimate yourself.You must feel that you are different.Everyone has faults.Nobody is perfect.You must realise this and love yourself.\nWalking and standing erect,looking into the eyes of the person you are talking to, shaking hands firmly are some things that make you look confident.\nIf you feel you are very under confident,try this.\nEveryday,assign yourself some little tasks that you are sure you can do.Complete them positively.Make the next task a little difficult and make sure you complete it.This way,you surely will build great confidence.\n\nWARNING: stop when you are confident.I don't want you to be asking how to overcome over confidence.\n\nThankyou.

You just need to boost your own self confidence a bit. Think to yourself that you are more then worthy and the best thing out there. When you believe this there will be no problem.

Heres what you do. Be an existentialist. Forget that neing nervous is the problem and try to accept that neing nervous is just there, that you WILL be nervous and thats to be expected, then you will find that you notice perhaps that others are too. Being nervous isnt a character flaw, its part of life, its to be expected. SO then what are you left with once you take that out of the equation...just you right, being outgoing isnt something that you can just be, it takes a little confidence. The catch is that the way to get that confidence it by just doing it....so force yourself, make conversation with people you normally wouldnt, be friendly to people, talk to them but dont stress too much.  You will find that you feel better as time goes on and you will notice the nervousness less and less. \n\nI know that probably didnt help, but good luck anyway!!

Love yourself. Give yourself the freedom to express yourself as yourself. "To thine own self be true" as Shakespeare said. When you start to feel insecure remind yourself that everyone is unique and different and that other people may be feeling equally insecure.

Build up self confidence by always believing in your self. Laugh at your self when you know you have made some stupid mistakes. Act a little more slowly in carrying out any activity. People will definitely see a different you. They may even rate you a genius. Good luck.

You gain confidence by believing in your abilities.  By succeeding in things you do.  They don't have to be big things, little victories count too. What qualities do you possess that others admire? Make a list if you like.  \n\nIf you can see yourself succeeding, your confidence will grow. Put yourself in a position to succeed in whatever you do.  Good luck!

I remember being 19 and not feeling confident.  That's okay, the confdence will develop as you mature.  Stay focused on the positive aspects of your life and continue to reach for your goals and dreams.  Be patient with yourself.  You sound like an intelligent person who will end up on her feet.

Start a physical program with a meditation component.  I would recommend yoga.  Breathe and do the yoga.  Do it several times a week.  This will change how you feel.  Knowing yourself through your body will increase your confidence.  Your body is what you take into the world with you.  Work on getting in touch with your body through movement practices.

Well, concentrate on your confidence that you already have--and then you will grow more confident as you do well and it will just flow when you meet the right person.

Simply believe in yourself. You could do anything just as good or better than any other person, if you really wanted to.\n\nTake TV commercials for example, you've seen some pretty stupid ones before, right? And you probably thought, "I could do a better job than that!"\nAnd more than likely, you could!!\nAnd so it is, with most everything.
