4 Easy Steps to help an Introvert be Successful

By Daniel Carlson


Believe it or disbelieve it, some of the most successful folks you see are introverts. How did they use their introversion to their advantage and attain success in an industry that seems aimed toward loud, outgoing folks?

Here are 4 easy steps that can help.

1. Confirmation.

The really important thing is to win the fight of attitude. Confirmation are simply positive things that you say aloud to yourself every day. This is often very tricky at times because you may not essentially believe what you are saying. So why would you say something to oneself that you do not believe? Heightened confidence to step out has to start with you. Therefore if you're shy and threatened by folks, begin to say something like the following: "I am NOT shy and I am NOT threatened by folk. I'm Very confident when I am getting around people."

Repeat this to oneself aloud at least 10 times before you leave your room. When you are saying this, don't just mumble it either, say it as many times as required until you assert it with eagerness and conviction.

2. Read to grow.

Again, raised confidence starts with you. Read something everyday for no less than 30 minutes which will help you boost your self-image. This is an article, a book, or maybe an audio series. The more that you learn the more that you will grow. The more you grow, the more your self-image will improve.

3. Do something everyday.

Do something every day, beginning with something tiny, that directly deals with your low self-esteem. For instance, if you are unable to talk with people as you feel nervous and inferior, just begin by saying 'Hi'. As you get more comfy with this, then begin to make chit-chat. You may begin to feel more confident and more confident till one day, you'll find that you have overcome low self-esteem in that area.

4. Stop the destructive thoughts.

Negative thoughts are like land mines. As fast as you step out to face your fear, a negative thought comes and tells you that you can't do it and BOOM; you think it and lose that round. Instead , diffuse unproductive thoughts before they've a opportunity to do damage.

A good way to do this is with a rubber band! Put an elastic band around your wrist. Every time a thought comes into your head that tells you that you can't do something, you'll never succeed, or anything negative, SNAP the elastic tie on your wrist.

You could be snapping that band till your wrist is red and sore. Before long though, you'll stop the negative feelings because you do not need to break your wrist any longer.

These four steps will help you boost your self-esteem and become even more confident stepping out. Just remember this: you are not going to modify over night. It will take time but as long as you are progressing, you are on your way to success.
