HOW TO BECOME MORE CONFIDENT Learn to eliminate unnecessary phrases and start talking more confidently
1/8
THREAD ALERT
Delete the phrase "I just"Saying ¨I just¨ is unnecessary and makes your idea sound weaker than you expect, watch the difference:
-I just want to take a ride in your car
-I want to take a ride in your car.

Do not over apologize Yes, apologizing is fine, but if you do it too often, you will show person weakness and easy to manipulate (They might take advantage of your respect)
Learn to know WHEN to apologize and when not!
3/8
Do not say "If it is all right with you"You give all the power to the person you are talking to; it is a game-changer in your sentence. Watch the example:
-I am going to the cinema if it is all right with you.
-I am going to the cinema.

Do not say "I hate to bother you but"This one is obvious, you are literally saying you are bothering them, you are giving them an excuse to feel bothered. Exchange it with “I need your help”
5/8
Do not say I don’t knowThis is the perfect example that shows you are insecure, unconfident, and that you have no idea about what you are talking about! Watch the example:
-I like playing the guitar, but I don’t know.
-I like playing the guitar, I am going to make it!
6/8
Like um uh You show that you are inexperienced and that you haven’t planned to say this. Exchange it with a pause or remove the words. Watch the example:
-I just want like, take a nap sometimes.
-I want to take a nap.
