Do you ever watch how people walk into a crowded room? Do they stand tall and proud or do they look down at the ground avoiding eye contact? You can learn a lot about a person by the way they walk and present themselves. People walking tall, making eye contact have an air of confidence, while those looking down show a sense of insecurity or shyness. Even though it can be very intimidating to walk into a crowded area with others watching, I am going to encourage you to stand tall and walk with your head held high. Walk with a smile that radiates openness and confidence. I understand it can be hard but a little trick to use is to pretend you are a queen or king and the people around you love and adore you. Sometimes pretending to act a certain way helps you gain confidence for the next experience. Another trick if you are very uncomfortable is to repeat positive affirmations while you are doing something. Here are a few for this situation. “Keep my head held high, smile be open and others will too.” or “I am a unique and wonderful being, if I smile and be open others will too. Always remember you are a wonderful, unique and one of a kind who should always hold your head up high and be proud for who you are and what you have to offer.
Here is my STAY POSITIVE thought for the week.
