• 1. Take care of yourself - when you look good, you feel good

- mentally, emotionally, physically, financially... support yourself at all levels to create the foundation you need for true confidence

• 2. Develop assurance - what strengths do you have? Do something with your life, have achievements and a purpose - what are you good at? Build confidence and don't be so pressed about what other people are doing
• 3. Combine personal achievement and reflection - try new things and reflect on them - realize that you are responsible for yourself, have self-direction and self-determination
• 4. Do something active with your body - satisfaction and achievement - sense of accomplishment that no one can diminish - get in touch with your body and focus on what you can do - you'll put off an invisible but powerful energy - love is an action word for how you treat and care for yourself
• 5. Confidence vs. arrogance - knowing your worth vs. thinking you're better than other people
• 6. Stop comparing! - comparison is the thief of joy - everyone has their own journey, path, calling - focus on doing YOUR best and getting better every day
• 7. Take action - reading about how to swim vs. actually trying - you can't read/listen/watch your way into confidence! Try new behaviors and follow through on them. Demystify and step one foot forward at a time
• Go out there and be your most truly confident self!
