WHEN YOU STAND OR START SPEAKING ABOUT A PATTICULAR SUBJECT DONOT FEEL THAT YOUR WORDS ARE NOT TO THE POINT AND ONLY THINK THAT YOU ARE THE ONLY MASTER AND THE LISNERS ARE TRYING TO GRASP SOMTHING OUT OF YOU.TRY YOU WILL GET COFIDENCE. II-THE TOPIC ON WHICH YOU WANT TO EXPLAIN MUST BE UNDER YOUR CAMMOND YOU WILL THEN FEEL THAT ALL IS IN YOUR CAMMOND INCLUDING THE AUDANCE.III- YOUR TOPIC MUST BE FULL OF EXAMPLES.TRY THOSE EXAMPLES WHICH ARE NOT EXPIRIENCED BY OTHERS AND YOU WILL GAIN CONFIDANCE.

You can become more confident in what you do by knowing about the subject,product,issue,etc.Whatever it is that you are involved in,if you don't know what you are talking about then learn. Start reading the dictionary,go online start learning about different things,go the library in your spare time,read about subjects you don't know anything about or understand. Reading is so good for you.You have to increase your knowledge.Seeing that most people don't use but about 5 percent  of their brain power,look out how much empty space you have that you can use. Think about what most subjects are that the people you know generally talk about. Then go start learning about these subjects so that the next time there is a conversation going on you will be prepared to have a little input of your own and know and understand what you are talking about. Your confidence will grown each time.When you are having a conversation with other people,remember that they are only human,they will not eat you alive unless they are cannibel(HaHa)Seriously,they are just people just like you.They may disagree with whatever you have to say,but everyone is entitled to their own opinion.As far as speaking in front of a crowd,well that's a different subject,that takes practice for anyone.Anyone interested should get a book on that subject and then practice,practice,practice.Maybe even join a public speaking class.In any case the more knowledge you have about a subject,the more comfortable and confident you will be when speaking about it.The more you know,the more confidence you have.Note:spell check is not working,I'm in a hurry today,gotta go,Good Luck.

Confidence is a quality that makes your life a lot more better.\nTo be confident,you must think positive.You must not underestimate yourself.You must feel that you are different.Everyone has faults.Nobody is perfect.You must realise this and love yourself.\nWalking and standing erect,looking into the eyes of the person you are talking to, shaking hands firmly are some things that make you look confident.\nIf you feel you are very under confident,try this.\nEveryday,assign yourself some little tasks that you are sure you can do.Complete them positively.Make the next task a little difficult and make sure you complete it.This way,you surely will build great confidence.\n\nWARNING: stop when you are confident.I don't want you to be asking how to overcome over confidence.\n\nThankyou.

You gain confidence by believing in your abilities.  By succeeding in things you do.  They don't have to be big things, little victories count too. What qualities do you possess that others admire? Make a list if you like.  \n\nIf you can see yourself succeeding, your confidence will grow. Put yourself in a position to succeed in whatever you do.  Good luck!

the best way to get confidence in your self is to confront your fears head-on.  even if you fail, at least you tried, and you can take solace in that.\n\nby the way, not all girls can read your mind...  but most can.  hee hee!  :)\n\nif you stop looking at them like "girls" and start seeing them as "people", you will find it much easier to deal with them!  ;)

There are a few simple things that you can do to boost your confidence quite easily.\nThe first is to make a list of all your strong points: write down all the things about you that are good and strong. If you need help, don't be shy to ask others to comment on your strong areas for you.\nKeep this list with you at all times, and pin a copy by your bed so that you can look at it first thing in the morning and when you go to bed, to make you feel great first and last thing every day of the week.\nThis is such a simple tip but it works really well.

I have a few suggestions on overcoming your problems.\n\nYou need to love yourself for the person you are, tell yourself daily that you are strong and confident (preferably when you feel the least). Everyone is unique. Everyone is different. Good posture might help with your confidence, it sends a confident vibe.. \n\nTry acting confident for a day, you'll see you might actually like it.. and it's not as difficult to pick it up after a while as it sounds.\nSometimes you might feel a little cheesy but it will really help.\n\nAs for the concentration.. work on developing patience and listening skills. If you are genuinely interested in what a person has to say, it is easier to listen. Or you could try tapping one finger on your leg, I know someone who does this. (discreetly though) Don't make it look like you are impatient. \n\nI hope this helps

What is your fear which stole your confidence away? Talk about it... speak to someone if you have a person whom you trust. \n\nIf you don't have anyone to speak to, try self help technique. you can write in your diary or record your voice as you talk about it. Then read what you wrote or replay what you've recorded and hear it as though it was your friend who wrote/ spoke.\n\nMost of the time we know the solution to our problem, but being in the hole ourselves, we fail to see the bigger picture and feel really helpless and stuck. The irony is when someone came to us with their problem, we can immediately see the solution. Therefore, by using this technique you can be your own "friend" and help yourself out of it. \n\nIf none of the above helps, list down your achievement in life, something you feel good/ proud about yourself, happy moments. Then try to recall/ visualise those moments. You will feel better.

Sounds to me like you need friends who will encourage you and be confidence builders. You're going it alone and your shyness is holding you back and this is where good friends will step in and give you support. Reach out, make friends who will help you feel more secure about yourself. Some of us here list our emails and message links to be of help. Take advantage of this and the experience others may have that can offer you support and advice as friends should.\n\nBest Wishes!!

Hold your chin up high and be yourself.  When you start losing your confidence, take a deep breath and think only positive things and happy thoughts.  It really works.

confidence, but not cockyness.  Be yourself and try not to impress anyone with anything but YOURSELF.

Beleive in yourself. Make your own decision. Trust yourself. Love yourself. Be proud of yourself and decisions you have made (Specially the right decisions). Learn from your mistakes and improve your shortfalls. Listen to others and learn from their experiences. Know that you are as capable as others. Everyone makes mistakes, it is the one who learns from it that rises higher in life.
