GEt your confidence high!

Look for a role model (someone who has self confidence) and learn from them, however don't emulate them.

Time and again conduct SWOT analysis. Focus on your achievements rather than your failures. If you do find yourself thinking about how you failed then look at what you managed to do right and how you could correct what you did next time.

Learn to feel good about yourself at all times. Don't let trivial things upset you.

When you begin to Act as if you were self confident, you will feel more confident.

Focus on your chosen peer group. Friends can influence us easily therefore choose them with care.

Prepare thoroughly for any task so that you can be sure you are ready.

Keep working on honing your skills. You can never be over trained or over skilled for any challenge in life.

Work on your relaxation skills. Learn to calm yourself in tough situation.

Always smile and stand up straight. The body posture says a lot.

Set reachable/realistic goals for yourself and adopt drill-down method (break difficult tasks into smaller steps)

Reward yourself when you succeed, it doesn't matter whether the achievement is big or small .

Do not be too competitive or compare yourself with others.

Always be yourself and accept that life is not a race against others.

Remember your self confidence depends on how you make it -- after all, there's a very thin line between confidence and arrogance.
