Research* has shown there is a correlation between how confident an individual is in his own skills and how skilled others judge him to be, irrespective of how skilled he really is (or is not). Those who underestimate their own skills are seen as less able by others.

If you want others to have faith in you, you have to at least show faith in yourself.

What message are you sending out to others?

Sit up straight, shoulders back, head up and start looking confident! Make this a habit!
