Here a few tips on how to look and feel confident.
Keep smiling because people like to see others smiling and moreover, if you are in a foul mood, it is will brighten you up also. Remember the saying, "Did you wear your smile today?" Remember that just as you wear your clothes, you do have to wear your smile also!
Eye contact Don"t feel shy to make eye contact; if you don"t make eye contact, you are looked on as a person who is bored, uninterested or inattentive. All these are very negative attributes. Look at yourself in the mirror and practise looking straight in the eye. Slowly transfer this to the people who come into contact with. Remember, it won"t kill you!
Good posture Do not stand with your back hunched. Have a straight back; a straight back shows you to be a confident person; someone who is energetic and can be relied upon.
You are good too! Don"t focus on your negatives; focus on your positive traits. Don"t share with people what you don"t know, but what you know!
Doing the things you love Go ahead and do the things you love, as long as they are not objectionable or dangerous. Sign up for new language courses or a sport activity. The former will stimulate you intellectually and the latter will also put you in touch with a lot of other young people like you.
Managing Time Don"t let things overwhelm you. Manage your time effectively by doing your homework or your assignment in advance so that you make time for unexpected events like an unplanned movie or party. You will find that you are less stressed out then.
Trust yourself There is no need to give in to social pressure. Don"t do things which you feel are wrong just to get the approval of your peers. That is not at all necessary. Self approval is more important because you have to live with your conscience and not with your friends.
