Boost your self-confidence: tips for your job (interview) and everyday life

Self-confidence means accepting oneself and knowing one's own worth. To act confidently in job searches, analyzing your own strengths and areas of expertise can be useful. Reflect on what you excel at, what qualifications you possess, and how you can contribute to your future job.

Developing Self-Confidence in Everyday Life

• Learn to say "no" and stand by your convictions.

• Use criticism as a learning opportunity and look forward to a new chapter.

Exercises For More Confidence:
