We all need a little pick-me-up from time to time. I know I do! A new survey found that the average adult needs 16 confidence boosts a month in order to feel their best. And these “boosts” don’t have to be anything big. A compliment, an outfit you feel good in, exercising, and getting your hair done are all examples of the kind of confidence lifts that we all need for our well-being.
In fact, 83% of those surveyed said these little boosts can make a “bad day good and a good day even better.”
Here are the Top 15 Confidence Boosters:
- Receiving a compliment or general praise
- Doing something you thought you couldn’t do
- Making someone laugh out loud
- Finding clothes which suit or flatter you
- Getting a friendly smile from a stranger
- Exercising
- Knowing the answer to a quiz question
- Having someone ask for your advice
- Having freshly brushed teeth
- Wearing your favorite outfit
- When someone compliments your smile
- Getting a beauty or grooming treatment
- Spraying your favorite perfume or scent
- Knowing you have fresh breath
- “Bossing it” at work
You're doing awesome, keep going! And hopefully these confidence boosters will empower you to boost others!
