Product Description

Few people lack confidence all the time, and many people are more confident with friends, or when practising a skill they know, such as working on a computer or cooking a meal. Yet, too often, these skills of confidence in everyday contexts may be dismissed as "that's nothing" or "that doesn't count" precisely because they are so familiar. This book aims to help people identify their areas of confidence and to extend them in small and practical increments. Confidence is seen not as a matter of what you feel, but what you do. Get the practice right and the feelings will follow. The book includes practical exercises with a focus on changing negative thoughts to overcome negative behaviour.

About the Author

4.0 out of 5 stars Simple ideas you can apply immediately, 3 Oct 2007

By	R Toynbee (London) - See all my reviews

This book starts with the assertion that confidence is not always about Feeling. It's about Doing. And I found myself saying At last! Someone's come out and said what we've always suspected, despite what the personal development gurus say. That confidence doesn't happen by saying inflated affirmations in front of a mirror. It happens by doing difficult things and realising you've done it. It comes from practice, doing things over and over again. And yes, at least at the beginning, it also comes from copying what people who appear confident do (like how to make body language and clothing work for you, or how to engage in small talk). This book is full of basic, yet practical tips that will little by little build your confidence - from the toolkit in chapter 2 - to the 63 confidence boosters in the final chapter. The idea is that you can pick and choose from the ideas that speak to you. A practical and simply written book for anyone wishing to nurture their sense of self.

5.0 out of 5 stars An invaluable pocket sized practicable ode to confidence building, 6 Jan 2008

By	S. C. Bonner "Baggy" (London) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I bought and read this book after attending a Creative New Media course at the Beeb taught by the very personable writer Gordon Lamont. I'd just gone freelance after many years working in TV industry, and I have to say that I have found this book an insightful and refreshing read free of obscure jargon, while heavy on real easily actioned nuggets of wisdom and practical exercises.
It's that rare book, that I am happy to admit I carry with me almost daily now. I always find myself referring to it and using the confidence toolbox in everyday life to great effect. The book may not revolutionise your life (and indeed sensibly makes no such promises) but if you're open to new ideas and approaches it will be give you a pocket sized toolkit to developing your confidence through real actions not words. And for the price I am confident that it's a steal!
