Sometimes work can be draining and if not handled with care we get lost in it feeling horrible. 

But Here are 8 tips to build your confidence whenever you’re at work!

SET REALISTIC GOALS

 

Accomplishments build confidence. Even if it’s as simple as making your bed in the morning or clearing out your email inbox, setting goals and achieving them can help you feel more confident. It’s okay to start small and work your way up, being realistic is key! 

 

TRACK YOUR PROGRESS

 

This is useful when it comes to your bigger goals. While simple, quick tasks can boost confidence fast, long-term or more challenging goals may provide a deeper sense of accomplishment. However, with long-term goals, it’s possible to lose sight of the progress you’re making.  

 

WRITE OUT YOUR STRENGTHS

 

Rather than focusing on what you can’t do, focus on what you can do. And we’re betting you can do a lot.  

This act of mindfulness can also help you maintain confidence in the long run. Writing out lists is linked to memory, plus it’ll give you something to return to when you need a little pick-me-up.  

 

PRACTICE POSITIVITY AND USE AFFIRMATIONS

 

Positive thinking goes a long way. You can’t control everything, but you can control your outlook to a degree. Actively focusing on the positive will reinforce other confidence-boosting habits.  



CONNECT WITH COWORKERS

 

Having a good relationship with your coworkers can do wonders for your confidence. When you feel like you have a support system at work, it makes the whole experience much more enjoyable.



DRESS FOR SUCCESS

 

It’s not about the price tag or aesthetic, as much as it is about wearing clothes that make you feel confident and comfortable. Do you feel more confident in dark colors or neutrals? Or maybe you’d rather stand out with a colorful ensemble? The most important part is feeling good about your presentation.  

 

TACKLE PROBLEMS HEAD-ON

 

Staying on top of your work is an easy way to proactively combat self-doubt and other obstacles to building confidence. Allowing tasks to pile up can cause you to feel behind, and potentially that you’re not performing well.  

 

STEP BACK

 

A quick break can do wonders for your mood. It’s far too easy to get caught up in what’s going on around you and make comparisons that fuel self-doubt. When you begin to feel behind, take a minute to pause, reflect, and regroup. Also, partake in activities that give you joy. 

 

Change may take time, but here are 8 tips to build your confidence which make the change faster.
