They have places to go, people to see, or important work to do. Even if you aren’t in a hurry, you can increase your self-confidence by putting some energy in your step. 25* 26One of the best ways to build confidence is listening to an inspiring speech. Unluckily, opportunities to listen to a great speaker are few. You can fill this need by creating a personal commercial. Write a 30-60 second speech that focuses on your strengths and goals. Then recite it in front of the mirror aloud whenever you need a confidence push.* Sit in the Front RowIn schools, offices and some other public places, people always sit at the back of the room. 27 . This reflects a lack of self-confidence. By deciding to sit in the front row, you can get over this meaningless fear and build your self-confidence* Speak UpDuring group discussions many people never express their opinions because they’re afraid that people will judge them for their saying something stupid 28 . By making an effort to express your opinions at least once in every group discussion, you will become a better public speaker, more confident in your own thoughts and recognized as a leader by your peers(同龄人)* Work OutAlong the same lines as personal appearance, physical fitness has a huge effect on self-confidence. 29 By making your body fit and strong.

It’s both cheaper and safe. But to fly in the sky was something new to me. At the end I felt a little nervous. But very soon I became exciting when I found me high up in the sky among the clouds. I also found that mountains, fields, river and so on was interestingly small. I enjoy the frightening and comfortable journey very much.
