“Low self-esteem is like driving through life with your hand brake on.” -- Maxwell Maltz
“有着低自尊就像在用手刹车的情况下驾车穿越生活。” -麦克斯韦·马尔茨
Nobody is born with limitless self-confidence. If someone seems to have incredible self-confidence, it’s because he or she has worked on building it for years. Self-confidence is something that you learn to build up because the challenging world of business, and life in general, can deflate it.
没有人天生拥有无限的自信。如果某人似乎具有令人难以置信的自信,那是因为他或她已经努力建立了多年。自信是您要学习建立的东西,因为充满挑战的商业世界以及一般的生活都可以使它消退。
An online negative review, a request for a refund from a customer or a flat rejection from investors can cause our self-confidence to dwindle. Well-meaning but sometimes unkind comments from those closest to us can also hit us hard.
一个负面评论,客户的退款要求或投资者一刀切的拒绝态度可能会使我们的自信心下降。与我们最亲近的人的善意却有时是不友善的评论也会给我们带来沉重打击。
On top of this, we have to deal with our inner critic of self-doubt that constantly tells us that we are not good enough. When bombarded by so many elements that threaten our self-confidence, we need to take charge of building it up for ourselves. Here are 10 things you can do to build up your self-confidence.
最重要的是,我们必须面对内心的自我怀疑的批评,这种批评不断告诉我们我们不够好。当受到威胁我们自信心的众多因素的轰炸时,我们需要负责为自己树立信心。下面是7条建议可以帮助提高你自信心。
1. Visualize yourself as you want to be.
脑中设想你想成为的样子
Visualization is the technique of seeing an image of yourself that you are proud of, in your own mind. When we struggle with low self-confidence, we have a poor perception of ourselves that is often inaccurate. Practice visualizing a fantastic version of yourself, achieving your goals.
设想是在脑中想出自己的满意的形象。当我们缺乏自信时,我们对自己的看法往往偏低且不准确。 练习设想自己的理想样貌,并实现目标。
2. Do one thing that scares you every day.
每天做一件令你恐惧的事情。
“If you are insecure, guess what? The rest of the world is too. Do not overestimate the competition and underestimate yourself. You are better than you think.” -- T. Harv Eker
“如果您没有安全感,那您猜怎么着?世界上的其他人也是如此。不要高估竞争,不要低估自己。你比你想象的要好。” -T.哈夫·埃克
The best way to overcome fear is to face it head-on. By doing something that scares you every day and gaining confidence from every experience, you will see your self-confidence soar. So get out of your comfort zone and face your fears!
克服恐惧的最好方法是直面恐惧。通过每天做一些让您感到恐惧的事情,并从每一次经历中获得自信,您会看到自己的自信飞涨。因此,走出舒适区并面对恐惧吧!
3. Question your inner critic.
不要相信脑中的自我批评
“You have been criticizing yourself for years, and it hasn’t worked. Try approving of yourself and see what happens.” -- Louise L. Hay
“您多年来一直在批评自己,但一直没有奏效。尝试认可自己,看看会发生什么。” -路易丝·L·海
Some of the harshest comments that we get come from ourselves, via the "voice of the inner critic." If you struggle with low self-confidence, there is a possibility that your inner critic has become overactive and inaccurate.
我们收到的最严厉的批评往往是我们自己告诉我们自己的。如果您缺乏自信,那么您对自己的批评可能变得过于活跃和不准确。
Look for evidence to support or deny the things that your inner critic is saying to you. For example, if you think that you are a failure, ask yourself, “What evidence is there to support the thought that I am a failure?” and “What evidence is there that doesn’t support the thought that I am a failure?”
寻找证据来支持或否认内心的批评。例如,如果您认为自己是失败者,请问自己:“有什么证据可以证明我是失败者?”和“有什么证据不支持我失败的想法?”
Find opportunities to congratulate, compliment and reward yourself, even for the smallest successes. As Mark Twain said, “A man cannot be comfortable without his own approval.”
寻找机会祝贺,称赞和奖励自己,即使取得最小的成功。正如马克·吐温所说:“一个人如果不会自己认可自己,那他就不可能舒适。”
4. Set yourself up to win.
为胜利做好准备。
“To establish true self-confidence, we must concentrate on our successes and forget about the failures and the negatives in our lives.” -- Denis Waitley
“要建立真正的自信,我们必须专心于成功,而忘记生活中的失败和消极。”---丹尼斯·韦特利
Too many people are discouraged about their abilities because they set themselves goals that are too difficult to achieve. Start by setting yourself small goals that you can win easily.
太多的人对自己的能力感到沮丧,因为他们设定了自己难以实现的目标。首先设定自己轻松实现的小目标。
Once you have built a stream of successes that make you feel good about yourself, you can then move on to harder goals. Make sure that you also keep a list of all your achievements, both large and small, to remind yourself of the times that you have done well.
当你尝试了一系列让自己感觉良好的成功后,您就可以朝更艰巨的目标迈进。你要列下自己的所有成就的列表,无论大小,以提醒自己自己做得很好的时候。
5. Help someone else.
帮助别人。
Helping someone else often enables us to forget about ourselves and to feel grateful for what we have. It also feels good when you are able to make a difference for someone else.
帮助别人通常会使我们忘记自己,并对自己拥有的东西感到感激。当您能够为别人做出贡献的时候,你自己也会感觉很好。
6. Care for yourself.
打理自己
Self-confidence depends on a combination of good physical health, emotional health and social health. It is hard to feel good about yourself if you hate your physique or constantly have low energy.
自信取决于良好的身体健康,情绪健康和社交健康。如果您讨厌自己的体质或持续精力低落,则很难自我感觉良好。
Make time to cultivate great exercise, eating and sleep habits. In addition, dress the way you want to feel. You have heard the saying that “clothes make the man.” Build your self-confidence by making the effort to look after your own needs.
花时间培养良好的运动,饮食和睡眠习惯。此外,以自己想要的方式打扮。您已经听说过“衣服造就人”的说法。通过努力满足自己的需求来建立自信。
7. Create personal boundaries
建立个人界限
“Never be bullied into silence. Never allow yourself to be made a victim. Accept no one’s definition of your life, but define yourself.”-- Harvey Fierstein
“永远不要被欺负到沉默。绝对不能让自己变成受害者。不接受任何人对你的生活的定义,而你要自己定义自己。”-哈维·菲尔斯坦
Learn to say no. Teach others to respect your personal boundaries. If necessary, take classes on how to be more assertive and learn to ask for what you want. The more control and say that you have over your own life, the greater will be your self-confidence.
学会说不。教别人尊重您的个人界限。有必要可以参加课程学习如何更有决断力以及如提出自己的要求。对自己的生活拥有更多的控制权的人才有更大的信心。
