So, what's it like to be confident?

Just curious, as i've always been crushingly shy. This might be a bit like trying to describe the color red to someone who's been blind their whole life.

Also, got any tips for me to get over my shyness?

    Remember everyone else is just as nervous as you. It's just that some are better at hiding it.

    My mother taught me something that may help you. Stand in front of your mirror - large mirror showing at least the top half of you. Pick any subject you feel comfortable about and talk outloud to the person in the mirror and discuss what you want. You will see yourself for the first time. Your gestures, your facial expressions, hand movements. Practice until you like what you see.

    My mom always said......you must like yourself first.. When you like what you see, you will have all the confidence you need.

    It is all a state of mind...you just have to belive in yourself and what you stand for....I'm confident but I still have shy moments...I think everyone does.

    It makes you feel like a motherless child. Orphans are the most confident people. Their condition demands it.
