7 tipů jak si můžeš zvýšit sebevědomí
Vidíš někoho a líbí se ti? Chtěl/a by ses s nim/ní pustit do hovoru? Jsi na pracovním pohovoru? Máš proslov před velkým počtem lidí? Jsi nervózní ve všech těchto situacích? Každý ti řekne: „Buď sebevědomý/á!“ Řekne se to jednoduše, ale velmi těžko se to uskuteční. Je to pro tebe nemožné, protože nemáš rád/a svůj vzhled? Přečti si tyto tipy:
1. Ukaž své dokonalosti!
Existuje něco, co se ti na tobě líbí? Soustřeď se na to. Ať to každý vidí. Máš rád/a své nohy? Choď v podpatcích a krátkých sukních. Máš rád/a svá ramena? Nos trička, která je ukáží. Mysli na své klady, ne zápory. Tvé sebevědomí se brzy dostaví.
2. Tví přátelé musí být pozitivní!
Mnohé dívky se setkávají a povídají si o svých slabých stránkách. To je „in“. Každá dívka musí na sobě něco nesnášet. Velmi málo dívek řekne: „ Jsem hezká a spokojená se svým tělem.“ Některé dívky si vymyslí problém, protože chtějí být jako jejich kamarádky. Nepobývej často s lidmi, kteří se nemají rádi. Jsou lidé kolem tebe negativní? Nevšímej si jich. Najdi si přátele, kteří jsou pozitivní. Uvažujte společně hezky o životě a o sobě samých.
3. Buď herec/herečka!
Jsi v situaci, kdy musíš být sebevědomý/á, ale nejsi takový/á? Představ si, že jsi filmový/á herec/herečka a chystáš se zahrát roli. Uvěř tomu. Nyní musíš být sebevědomý/á, protože je to ve tvém scénáři.
