#tumblr #shorts - Steps to Feign Confidence

[joshsimpson]

"Stop apologizing" is massively oversimplified. Some people do have a tendency to apologize and beat themselves up over every little mistake. Limiting that is probably healthy, but DON'T take it too far! If you hurt another person actually apologize, and I mean take the time to do it right. Being willing and able to own your mistakes and change is a sign of confidence too, and people who can't do that are generally awful people

“Unnerving confidence will get you most places. Act like you have a right to be where you are and people stop questioning you.”

"Stop apologizing"? Yeah, no, that won't work so well over here, bud. Canadians' hearts beat on their saying sorry, eh?

I've learned from experience that being quick to laugh at yourself is a great way to not have self confidence and make people worried about you

Small tip for people who struggles with direct eye contact: look them at the space between the bridge of the nose and the forehead

Instead of overusing “I’m Sorry” statements, try replacing them with “Thank you” or “Excuse me” statements!

I’m sorry I’m a minute late—-Thank you for your patience.

I’m sorry I’m in the doorway—-Excuse me, we’re going opposite ways.

Reserve apologies for situations when you are genuinely at fault and have regret (like if you’re an hour late).

Others will say not to use sorry ever, claiming it’s a sign of weakness. But refusing to admit you are wrong, and refusing to express feelings or regret, guilt, or sorrow are also weaknesses.

Results may vary in Canada and Canada-Adjacent communities.
