Tips to boost your Self-Confidence

1. Remember your Success
Remember your Success and let them flow through your mind instead of your failures. Write down your success however small they may be. Writing down is essential. Use a journal of some kind and jot down your success. It will slowly but surely generate confidence in you. Sunil Gavaskar, the Little Master when he was passing through a out of form phase in his life, he used to watch the video of his previous batting success to boost his self-confidence. By constantly watching his past success he used to maintain his self confidence. If this worked for Sunil Gavaskar it would work for you also.
2. Burn your Disappointments
When you are bugged down with any failure and consequently disappointed, your biggest enemy is that disappointment. This disappointment in turns kills your confidence. One easiest method to meet such situations is to write down your disappointment on a piece of paper. Immediately, thereafter light your matchstick and burn that piece of paper. As the piece of paper catches fire and is reduced to ashes watch it intensely and visualize your disappointment getting reduced to ashes. This will positively impact your mind and give you tremendous confidence to reduce your disappointment to ashes. This trick was used by Bruce Lee, the master of martial art and actor. If it worked for him, it would work for you also
3. Keep Track of What Motivates You
