Confidence training

In any, the most alarming situation, at dinner you will get into your mouth with a spoon. Why? Because you have been eating like this for several decades, because this skill has been worked out. When you thus, by training, accustom yourself to behaving naturally confidently for you, then even in an anxious situation you will behave confidently — simply because you behave that way all the time.

Start by straightening your back and start speaking loudly. Louder than before. And why not? Others speak loudly, they can. Try it yourself and see what happens. Most likely, nothing terrible will happen, and your confidence will begin to increase. See →
