Self-Confidence
Seducers are no stranger to self-confidence. Self-confidence demonstrates a faith and belief in oneself. This shows one’s comfort in his or her personality and thus a security in one’s sense of self. This comes across as internal and unbreakable.
Speaking with self-confidence ultimately means that you can speak highly of yourself, when necessary and appropriate, and speak highly of others too. Sharing credit and extending appreciation to others shows that you see your strengths and successes as the product of communal input, friendly or professional encouragement, and emotional support as much as your individual efforts, talents, and execution. Those who are secure in themselves have no problem acknowledging their advantages or thanking those who helped them. This security translates to self-confidence, making a person easier to trust, admire, and follow.
Below is a list of sample statements that can demonstrate your self-confidence, as well as a list of words to use in your daily affirmations. Use the words below as daily affirmations to increase your self-esteem and confidence in yourself.

Speak these affirmations to yourself in the mirror or think of them throughout the day to build self-confidence.
