Keeping a Journal
I find that the best way for me to boost my self-confidence is to write in my
journal everyday. I have read several self-help books that recommend everything
from making to-do lists to changing your diet in order to improve self-confidence.
I tried a few things but had little success. One of the common threads in all of
the self-help books I've read is the power of 'positive thinking’. When you
focus on positive things, it's easy to believe that you can do anything that
you put your mind to.
Anyway, let's get back to my journal. When I first started keeping a journal
several years ago, all I did was write about daily events. It was nothing more
than a 'log' of my daily life. As time went by, I started writing more and more
about successful things I had accomplished. Whenever I looked back on those
entries, I felt a strong rush of 'I CAN DO IT!' in my heart. Now, I make it
a point to include at least one successful thing that I accomplished in every
journal entry. Somehow it reinforce my motivation and self-confidence. I don't
know if this system is right for everyone, but it certainly works for me.
