How Increased Confidence Can Help You Get What You Want
How Increased Confidence Can Help You Get What
You Want
This might
sound like the cheesy-kind of advice your parents might have given you, but it
really is true that confidence can get you pretty much whatever you want. That
and being yourself.
If you want
to get a date, succeed in your career or otherwise take any aspect of your life
to the next level, then boosting your confidence is one of the best ways to accomplish that. Here’s why…
What Confidence Really Means
If you have
ever met an alpha male, or a woman who just seems to have everything under
control, then you might have noticed that they are usually very confident. The
truth is that the whole reason they appear
so successful is that confidence. That’s because confidence sends a
powerful signal – it says ‘I consider myself to be a catch’.
Speaking in
evolutionary terms, confidence suggests that you are a good potential mate, or
a superior competitor. Even if someone is short, poorly dressed and unappealing
– if they are supremely confidence then it will seem as though they know
something you don’t. The assumption is that they must have a reason to be that confident.
And thus we
instantly assume that this person is somehow our superior: that we should try
to impress them, or try to be more like them. That’s why we gravitate toward
confident people, want to date them and want to be liked by them.
A lot of
people don’t realize the importance of confidence and they think it is enough
to be nice. They assume that by acting nice, they will get people to like them
and they can that way overcome their looks, their stature, or their status.
But if you
don’t have any self-confidence and you act very nice, then this can actually
backfire: it starts to seem as though you want
something and that you are being a creep in order to get it.
Conversely,
if you act a little less needy, if you can show yourself to be highly capable
and impressive and then you chat to someone in a friendly and open manner… then
people will be won over by your charm and your appeal. This niceness seems much
more genuine because you appear like you don’t need help from everyone.
So guys:
stop trying to win the girl by being nice.
Employees,
stop trying to get the job by being self-deprecating.
Act like
you know your worth and then layer niceness on top of that. That is the winning
combination!
Four Things That Can Make Your Life More Meaningful
Four Things That Can Make Your Life More
Meaningful
When we
spend our lives merely surviving, life can start to seem a little empty and pointless. Nevertheless, this is exactly
how many of us live: we work for eight hours or more a day and then we come
home feeling too tired and exhausted to do much of anything with our time. So,
we sit and watch TV.
The same
thing repeats and repeats and the most excitement we have is a holiday once a
year to look forward to. Is that really living?
Here are
four simple changes that can make your life more meaningful:
Learning
Constantly
learning is a great way to give life more meaning and direction. Ultimately,
one of the things that the brain craves most is growth. If it isn’t challenged
to learn and grow, then it will shrink and we will become set in our ways.
Make it
your job to constantly be learning new skills and pursuits. That can be related
to your career, a hobby, or even a new language!
Relationships
Likewise,
relationships are one of the things that we really need to be happy. If you
don’t have meaningful relationships, then you’ll have no one to share your
experiences, your challenges and your triumphs with.
A truly
‘meaningful’ relationship goes beyond friends of friends that you only ever
meet in a group. This is someone that you can have a deep heart-to-heart with
and who has a long and storied history with you.
Challenge
What’s also
necessary for life to feel meaningful is challenge and to some extent, risk.
Have you
ever been in a situation that was truly life and death? Or perhaps that put you
in a situation where you were close to accomplishing something truly amazing?
These are
the moments that the brain focusses and engages with the world. These are the
moments when we learn and when we realize the worth of what we have. It puts
things in perspective and creates stories. Don’t shy away from the things that
test you!
Travel
Finally,
everyone should seek to have some travel in their lives. This doesn’t mean you
have to backpack across the dessert – but simply being able to experience new
sights and new people is important to keep your mind open and your experiences
varied. If you don’t have the budget to go away, then come up with an adventure
you can enjoy a little closer to home.

Appreciating the beauty of nature sustains me
As I walk outside each day, I look around. I inhale the air. I notice the sensation of the breeze across my face. I am struck by the loveliness of the natural environment.
