People Who Lack Confidence Use These Words - do You? ...

“Might” is one of those words people who are not confident use quite often. It’s an ambivalent word that shows a lack of initiative, intention and direction. Using it when it comes to your weekly planning or even to your future plans, could result in things left undone. Just eliminate this word from your vocabulary, be more determined and use “will” and "can" instead.

You can do whatever you want and you have the resources to reach all your goals as long as you work hard and don’t give up on your dreams. Won’t is a defeatist word that assumes failure even before you start doing something. Don’t let negative thinking get in the way of your happiness! Have faith in your abilities and start working towards reaching all your goals!

This is another word people who often feel insecure always use. This word only promotes and strengthens the defeatist attitude of won’t. Don’t associate it with yourself or with the things you can or you want to do. Just believe in yourself, have faith in your abilities and carry on!

This is one of the words most people use way too often. Worries will only bring you misery and they will make you feel even more insecure. This is the reason why people are not confident: because they worry too much. Apparently, this word has even two components: thinking ahead and fearing a negative outcome. The best thing you can do is to just live in the moment and enjoy all the wonderful things you have.

Well, don’t get me wrong; sometimes it’s only natural to feel confused but try not to use this word too often and don’t let this state of mind overwhelm you. Try to figure out what you want and work hard to achieve all your objectives. Ask yourself (or even others) clear and direct questions and be sure of yourself in every situation.

You actually don’t need much to be happy, just try to find happiness in the little things. Wanting something is a totally different thing to needing something, so try not to mix those two words because one implies necessity and the other simply refers to one of your desires. Also, try to remember that you don’t need to have certain things to feel sure of yourself; confidence is a state of mind which can be acquired by anyone.

This word is very similar to the ambivalent “might” but it actually has a higher probability of happening, positively or negatively. Try to change the “likely” to a definite “yes” and see what happens. Your entire mood will improve, you will chase away all your self-doubts and you will start believing in your own abilities more.

Confidence is a skill that can be acquired through practice, so work hard, be patient and don’t ever give up on your dreams, since you have the strength to overcome all the obstacles that may appear in your path.
