How did you become a confident person?

[Anonymous]

Self-love is absolutely crucial to celebrate your existence!

[Garud]

By focusing on yourself first.
I don't waste my mental energy thinking about others like I used to. Others include religion, country, society, family, friends.
First focus on yourself, then you won't need to focus on others.

You said it. Self love. It's a journey I'm still on. I really should have paid more attention to the most important relationship a human could ever have - the relationship with oneself.

[KrakenAttackin]

Well said.

I'm here to sprinkle some love and confidence your way, darling! 🤩 Confidence is a journey, and mine was paved with lots of trial and error. Falling in love with myself wasn't overnight; it was about embracing quirks and flaws with a little humor and a lot of kindness. My tip to you: treat yourself like your own soulmate! Remember, even Beyoncé had to learn to walk in heels! 😉💃 Keep owning your fabulous self!

My parents taught me to always trust in myself, regardless of what others think.

[TheRealPepperPotts]

Still working on it. :)

For me it was leaving my hometown and quickly becoming accepted by new, confident people… getting invited out and around their longtime friends, make these new memories, and it’s funny… you don’t feel tied down to an expectation of what the people that you’ve known for a long time (back home), think you are or should be…

And I ended up moving back to my hometown later on, for family reasons, and it’s honestly kind of been hell… People get real weird after they haven’t seen you for a while and you’re like a 2.0 version of yourself.

You have to be able to ignore those that are negative about you unless what they say is valid and you can learn from it. Most negative people aren’t very good anyway or they are jealous. I learned later than I should have about how many jealous people there are and how destructive they can be if not shut down. Adults who are still jealous of people boggles my mind as it seems so High School of them.

You also need to not let others inflate your ego too much as that can be problematic as well.

**You mostly though need to be very good at somethings that matters. Practice and learn, gravitate to what you are naturally good at.**. Be the best of you can.

Start by making small successes, and work your way up. Even if it is as simple as noting when you finish mending a sock, or fixing, dinner, write it down. At the end of a day, you will see how much you've accomplished. Gradually, knock out the more minor things in your notes, and add the bigger things. (You are really training your mind to recognize your successes this way).

[Sour-rose]

Well had to realize that it won't matter how stiff I make my back for them to walk on, they'll still hate me. So i suppose I found my confidence there. And i was right... so much so it turned me into "Sour rose". Some can't handle the sourness, and makes the sour petals all the more stronger with sweet dislike. Family, friends... only has made me so much stronger in my confidence.

[midnightmoon05]

By reflecting on my mistakes … learn from it. Try again… then I succeed… the sense of accomplishment, accomplishment of the little goals I set… appreciate the little things I have … all the above… builds confidence… as well as helping others succeed.
a simple smile, to life up another.

[SeriouslyNotSerious]

That time I tried on some sexy clothes and lingerie.. then it all started from there. 🤣🤦🏻‍♀️

[DryGermanGuy]

👀🤯😍😭🏃

[BarryLiverstone]

Focused on a few things that I was good at and kept doing them to gain experience. Also learned to not talk badly about myself I private and public. Finally learned that God doesn’t make junk; I’m here for a purpose and must use the gifts He’s given me in a confident way.

I think confidence is learned not something you’re born with. So becoming a confident person takes more time for some people depending on your personality, upbringing, influences in life and other factors.

[lovelydream406gh]

[Notherndude84]

1. Stopped asking women out. 2. Built myself up mentally, physically, emotionally and financially.

One of the great things about being over 40 is women's options become less and less while a guys becomes more and more. Now the women I meet are on my timeline. They're in a hurry to get into a relationship and I'm not. When they're out there chasing you, you know you've won.👍

[Agape93]

I know what I am, what I'm capable of and comfortable in doing. I don't feel a need to be anything else than what I am. Its not confidence, it's emptiness and detachment

[thatshydork]

I reached out to my friends and family for support. I also worked on things I could to make my insecurities go away like work out or things like that.

[Nikki1989]

I identified my talents, skills, and accomplishments and celebrated all my successes, no matter how small.

[emeraldsaphire]

I never did. I just tell everyone I am, then I cry when they leave my room

[mobiusforniner]

By becoming comfortable with the uncomfortable.

[LiamJHayden]

By valuing the opinions of those who bring value to my life and not those of others.

[Crazzyyworld]

Getting sex from good looking white men is the main source of confidence.

[Stephanie2004]

By making small achieve able goals and when you achieve them keep making them.

[deeezy_wings]

By bulking up as a woman and getting comfortable in showing skin

[Alice18]

A lot work and self development

[UrsulaY]

Life experience.
