confidence

Have people ever told you that one of the reasons they love you so much is because "you put other's needs before your own"? While this can feel nice to hear, it can also mean you have an unhealthy habit of being a people pleaser. Being a people pleaser isn't just being nice, it is always choosing to please others, often at the expense of your own wellbeing. This can quickly lead to burnouts and can even lead to depression if this behavior goes on too long. Luckily, you can avoid this by working on saying no when needed and realizing that it is okay to say no.

Confidence is a feeling of self-assurance arising from one’s own abilities.  Having this ability to be confident is not something you are born with.  Some seem to have the ability to appear confident and act as though it is easy, where others struggle.  Confidence is something learned and something that takes practice.  There are many ways to improve your confidence skills in the workplace, here are a few tips to help you on your quest.
