Being the Most Confident Person in the Room


Being the Most Confident Person in the Room
You do not have to search the whole world, books in library or the internet, for an easy hack to building your confidence—some top influential people say you should adjust your posture, give yourself a pep talk every morning, envision your future full of success etc. Well, you can follow these top influences and mimic their habits. Or you can do something far more straightforward, Get experience!!!! Yes that’s right but yet incredibly underrated.
I know right? It sounds obvious! But if you really want to become the most confident person in the room, you have to actually become the most informed and prepared: “Nothing beats the confidence-building effects of preparation, and of focusing on the minute-by-minute process that lies entirely within your control,”
Just think about that next presentation you have to give at work. Should you just strike a power posture and pray your boss thinks you’re a star? Or, should you also do your research, take the time to practice, and put in your best effort? Maybe it won’t be the most mind-glowingly awesome speech you ever give, but because you’re prepared, it’ll feel far less intimidating.
When you think of it this way, building up your confidence is less about adding hacks to hacks to hacks, but instead just putting in effort where it counts. The next time you find yourself approaching a situation in which you know you’ll need that self-esteem boost; turn your attention to what needs to get done now.
Trust me this works, I am sure about this because this is what I always do when am about to write an examination, so I don’t flop I build my confidence, in preparation for the exams, I do this by studying so I am very confident when am in the examination hall. As Tan says, “An approach based on diligent practice is less about projecting confidence, and more about building it. So, when you work toward a long-term goal, taking tiny steps that eventually culminate in a breakthrough, you’re where you need to be, doing what you need to be doing.”
And that is why all your career role models always sound so self-assured. They didn’t uncover a secret trick—they just know their stuff. And that my dear friend / dear reader is definitely the simplest answer/trick there is.

13 Unexpected Traits You Will Only Find In Intelligent people! Did you meet someone who left you wondering after a meaningful conversation? Whether you have been talking to a human version 2.0 of some sort of super computer all along? Or why something that you have absolutely no interest in fascinates them? Some people just seem to have Albert Einstein as their guardian angel. Or, as Keyzurbur Alas puts it, "intelligent people let themselves become fascinated by things others take for granted." Research published in 2016 suggests that there's a link between childhood intelligence and openness to experience — which encompasses intellectual curiosity — in adulthood. Below are traits common to intelligent people that might help you single out the individuals with the highest I.Q.    1. Intelligent people understand how much they do not know An intelligent person is never afraid or ashamed to admit to not knowing a particular thing or concept. This is because e

WHERE IN THE WORD IS "KLAUS"

I'm so bored!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I miss this guy so much, i started downloading so many super hero series to enjoy watching a villain killing and antagonizing the heroes. So far i have watched #Supernatural, #Smallville, #Super Girl, #Phineas and Ferb, #The Flash, #Gotham and #Arrow to name a few up to their most current episodes, and there was no bad guy i enjoyed watching as much as i enjoy watching Klaus . Sadly, really sadly, none of the villains are master planners like Klaus . They were all easily and less tactically defeated.  It is really sad. I miss Klaus so much, Why OH why did they move it to next year? and to top that there even went further to reduce the episodes. Last year i had similar experience, but then i went on a romantic heroes marathon, as i was left on a cliff hanger on Klamille, but now Camille is dead!!!  Which is why, this time i moved on to the Villains, which it seems isn't working well for me. So now looking at the heroes in all the
