When was the last time you encouraged yourself?

It is so important to boost your confidence, especially if you were not given praise or support throughout your life. Begin today to encourage yourself with a pep talk. If you always wanted to do something, but were afraid you might fail, tell yourself, “I can do it. I just need to take small steps each day to make it happen.”

“Believe in yourself! Have faith in your abilities! Without a humble but reasonable confidence in your own powers you cannot be successful or happy.”

—Norman Vincent Peale
