Confidence

I tell a recent story about my speeches, my first three you guy gave me an encouraging feed back that is should make my fear don’t show, I should move around the floor, I should make good eye contact. I took those advices to heart and on fourth speech I say to myself why should I worry? I wrote speeches earlier, master and came to toastmaster to prove that I can overcome those worries and fears that made less confidence and delivered my speech. Guest what feedback I got this time? “You spoke with confidence!”

In life every thing we do, we are either confident or less confident. Our confidence level is driven by two opposite forces: one make us feel bad and the other make us feel good.
Let me give you two examples of the bad force. One is the negative voice. The negative voice that keep nagging at you, that you’re not good for nothing, that little Mickey Mouse criticizing for what ever you do; we got to make it sound like a clown. We got to it not to bother us.

Another bad force is worrying about everything. When you start to worry, you are making yourself less confidence and people around you would notice. That can be a weakness you wouldn’t want to shown.

On the flip side, when you start to identify your successes and discover your talents, start to feel good and you become more confidence. Everyone in this group is good for something; if you’re passion about music, writing, dancing show, and enjoy doing it, your confidence level will be high up there.

Another good force we often ignore is to be thankful to ourselves. You sometimes feel we don’t have enough money, good lucks or relationships and start to feel less. This will hurt your confidence. By acknowledging and appreciating what you have, you’ll feel complete and satisfied and have inner peace.

Recently America made electing Barrack Obama. Before Barrack was nominated, none would have imagined he could win the primary or presidency. But, one thing we didn’t know then was that this man has confidence. This man knew his weakness and turns it to his strength with strategies and the political know how.

Once feel and appear confidence we capable of doing things we thought we couldn’t and people will love us respect us and trust us because we’re confidence. Let’s go out and be confidence toastmasters.
