Self Confidence Boosting Quotes

What is Confidence? Why do I need it?

Self confidence is one of the most essential traits a person can embrace in their every days lives. Confidence means believing in yourself. It’s what will help you conquer fear and overcome doubt. This all sounds great, doesn’t it?

It’s too bad we can’t just run to the store and buy a great big case of confidence boosting soda. You see, as beneficial as it is, self confidence is a quickly diminishing resource in our society. We’re plagued by thoughts and notions of insecurity. We’re bombarded by messages of not being enough, of needing to change. We’re told, over and over again, that we’re lacking, that we are terribly flawed. That’s not true.

Those messages, as popular as they are, aren’t helpful. If we’re going to reach our goals, if we’re going to be the best people we can be and start living the life we most want, we have to find ways increase our self confidence, our self esteem, our self worth.

Quotes are always a great place to start. They’re short and sweet little bite sized thought. The bad news is, this isn’t something we can change over night, it’s going to take weeks or months of hard work to truly realize that we’re good, worthy, and valuable just as we are.

The good news though, you’ve come to the right place. You can take those first few steps right now. Just a few words can have a huge impact on your day, maybe even your life. I’ve made a list of some of my favorite self confidence boosting quotes. I hope you enjoy them.
