What boosts your self confidence? Why?
For the most part I am a pretty confident person. I have moments of self doubt and days I don't feel good about myself just like everyone else though. However, I always grew up being told by my parents and loved ones that I was important and could do anything I want. I was always treated equal and never treated special because I was "disabled" or "different." It is those type of things today that continue to boost my self confidence. Receiving compliments, praise, and encouragement are all boosts for me because they make me feel good. I feel important, valued, and loved.
There are also other superficial things that boost my self confidence as well. Getting my hair done, getting my nails done, wearing a cute outfit, having my makeup done, etc. Anytime I take the time out to pamper myself I gain confidence. That's because when I feel like I have taken the extra effort on myself, I feel like I value myself. I care about myself enough to take the time to do something for me. And that is the best kind of confidence to have, the kind I give myself.
