魔术美文记4级词汇 How to Build Self-Confidence

（单词翻译）

People who proclaim confidence really seem to be naturally outstanding. They grab more rewarding affairs, maintain agreeable relationships, assist associates sincerely, and just seem to do everything with more style than the conventional behavior of others.

Actually, true self-confidence is neither born nor an overnight acquisition. It is a habit that everyone can cultivate in life. Try these simple tips to drill and enhance the extent of your confidence:

1. Build your confidence vocabulary.

Commonly, optimistic speech makes an active implication to your confidence. So please abandon all the passive words and quit continuously condemning¹ or confessing your defects. Learn to highlight your advantage and faculty².

2. Acknowledge your flaw calmly.

Do not try to flee from it or conceal³ it. Confront it bravely and have a definite definition of it. Then utter it to a reliable mate, a friend or a comrade. Combat with it everyday until the day when you could chip it away and conquer it.

3. Dress for self-confidence.

Your appearance could plunge⁴ you into embarrassment⁵ or arouse your confidence, so pay attention to your dress, sufficiently⁶ utilize⁷ your unique physical assets and exhibit your best image. In addition, in solemn occasions such as a business banquet or a wedding ceremony, elegant bearing contributes to build your confidence.

4. Don’t postpone⁸ what you eventually have to do.

You should break your routine that tackles the work passively. Concentrate your efforts immediately on overcoming it, which will relieve your restless and frustrated⁹ mind and build your self-confidence.

5. Cling to your fundamental principles.

You should have an independent consideration to your private affairs, and follow your inner resolution. Don’t mind the remarks of others

6. Be positive.

Feel pity neither on yourself nor on others. If you are accustomed to disgusting and accusing yourself, others would tend to do that and believe it likewise. Instead, you should speak positively¹⁰ about yourself, your progress, your aspiration¹¹, and your bright prospect¹². By doing so, you would reinforce those ideas in your heart and encourage your growth in a positive direction.
