Is self-doubt holding you back from achieving success?
Is your personal life not going well, and are there problems in your professional activities?
All this speaks to the need to change your behavior.
But how can you transform from a shy and timid person into a charismatic and determined person?
There is one exercise that will help you achieve the desired result.
An exercise to help you become more confident
First, you need to find out what kind of person you associate with the concepts of “determination”, “charisma”, “confidence”.
It could be a celebrity. However, it is also possible that it is your friend or relative.
Find recordings of this person speaking in public.
However, videos shot in an informal setting are also suitable.
Study the materials without sound and analyze the behavior of a confident person.
Take everything into account: gestures, facial expressions, posture, and gaze.
Next, start practicing: try to copy the charismatic person's behavior. Do it at home first, when no one is watching.
After some time, try to apply the acquired skills “in practice”: when communicating with people or during a public speech.
You will realize that the copied gestures have made you a little more confident.
Once these behavioral traits become a habit, you will most likely completely get rid of shyness.
