e all have times when our self confidence takes a dip, but Anna Barnes, author of, says it’s never lost forever. “Lack of self-confidence is characterised by critical self-talk and self-doubt, which can hold you back and prevent you from realising your full potential… but what many people don’t realise is that confidence grows, like a muscle. Confident feeling and behaviour can be practised and, in time, it can become a habit.” Anna’s simple exercise can help: “Write down 10 things you like about yourself. It doesn’t matter how small or ‘silly’ these things are. Maybe you make the best cup of tea, or you have a talent for making your friends laugh. Focusing on things that you like about yourself will help you to break the habit of putting yourself down. Keep adding to the list and feel your confidence soar.” Learn more in (Summersdale, £9.99), out now.
