We all tell ourselves our life story. Even if a person doesn't consciously recognize that he is telling himself a story about his life, his life story has a major impact. Everyone's story about his life has major themes running through it. Some people have a highly spiritual life story. Some people have life stories about developing positive character traits while others don't. Some life stories are full of gratitude, others aren't.
Even if someone isn't satisfied with his life story until now, he can choose to change the theme of his life story at any given moment. It's never too late.
This concept of our personal life stories applies to our thoughts about our self-confidence. What stories do you tell yourself about your self-confidence? Change the way you view your life story to improve your self-confidence.
When you think about different situations that might arise in your life, see yourself thinking, speaking and acting with greater self-confidence.
These thoughts will lead to improved words and actions.
