Becoming Confident

Some people are born shy, very shy. But others are born fearless and full of confidence. Good friends support you when you need it, and that can always make you more confident. But sometimes if there is no friend around to help. When those hard and lonely times come, tell your self all of these things:

• Your an amazing person! Don't let an audience or a bully make you think otherwise!
• You can do anything if you try your hardest!
• Even if you don't win or get a standing ovation, the best thing is that you tried your hardest and that's the most you can ask for!
• You have family and friends who, even if they aren't here right now, support you with all their heart!

So shut out that voice who is telling you you can't do or it you'll make a fool of yourself and refresh your brain with positive thoughts that will make you and your peers happy and confident! Winning or losing isn't your game, your confidence and happiness is!
