Boosting Self Confidence?

[minko401]

I don't feel that my self confidence is incredibly low, but I do feel like it could be higher. I was wondering if anyone had any tricks or exercises for helping to boost one's self confidence, and if they would be willing to post them below.

Two (http://www.virtualteen.org/forums/showthread.php?p=985448=) friends (http://www.virtualteen.org/forums/showthread.php?t=69509) of mine actually wrote some great articles on this very subject, you may want to check them out. If you want a simplified answer, though: I find the best way is to find reasons to love yourself. You need to do things that you can be proud of. Work to master a hobby or talent of yours, earn a good position wherever you work, actively try to achieve things that will earn you respect.
