Expect more from yourself than others. The good news - everyone believes in what you show. Nobody can read your thoughts to know your doubts. The bad news - you can interpret every people's sight in a wrong way. Any weird reaction and you start worrying without any reason. Psychologists recommend listening to your "inner voice". Make this experiment: write down every thought while you are lacking of self-confidence. Every time you start worrying, do a two-minute break. Take the list and remind yourself how great you are. Show to your brain the material proof of your self-confidence.

Positive statements. Remember the choice-to train? I know, I can, I know, I can! Positive statements are not about being oblivious to the not so positive but is about the right framing of your reality. Ever the most unpleasant event can be stated in some form of a positive statement. These statements allow you to build a productive positive outlook on life which supports your confidence in life. Having a positive outlook on life allows you to access far more of your abilities, therefore, you are able to achieve more every day.

Appearance is everything. When you look good you feel good. Simple. If you are walking around looking like you just got out of a rubbish bin, you probably won't be too confident about yourself. We all know how you feel when you walk out of the hairdresser, you walk a bit taller, you walk with purpose. So look after yourself and dress your best and you will feel your best. You know your superb features to show them off!

This book will help you identify effective methods designed to bring out your charismatic personality.  

I would like to encourage you to begin the journey by looking at yourself and accepting what you see. There can never be another you so be all you can be for the time being.   

The next step is to put the useful information you found here into practice day by day, and begin to enjoy the wholesomeness of life.

Chapter 1 –  How to Wake Up Early, Energized and Motivated Everyday with Morning Routine

What do you do the moment you wake up? Do you start your day by checking messages on your phone? Or by checking your news feeds from different social media sites on your laptop? Or by doing nothing because you don’t really have any time for any morning rituals because you’re late for work or school? Or you simply woke up late and have nothing to do but sleep again?

Sounds familiar, right? You may be a night owl but being a morning person is not so bad. According to researchers, whatever you do first thing in the morning actually affects the whole day ahead. You may be wondering how.

Let’s put it this way: you’re a writer and you’re starting a new book but you find it hard to start writing because you can’t seem to make up your mind or better yet you have no springboard. In another context, you’re a businessman and you’re starting out on a new venture but then you’re having a hard time since you don’t have enough resources.

Just like a good book having an awesome springboard or a successful business having enough resources, you too must have an awesome springboard and enough resources in order to your day would end up being an awesome one! Here are some of the resources you should have:

Say a Prayer

Prayer is the best way for starting your day right. When you start and end your day with a prayer, you will have a peaceful heart and a peaceful soul. Your prayer does not have to be lengthy and full of sugar coated phrases. Just pray to be thankful for another chance in life and to pray for strength to hold on through all the challenges you are currently facing and for all the challenges that are to come. Pray with an open heart and surely you will be heard!

Exercise

Once you’re finished improving your spirit, why not exercise your body? Exercising is one way of keeping your body healthy and in shape. Health experts believe that there are many benefits you can gain when you exercise. Here are some: You get energized and surely you’ll shake off that lazy feeling. You will have an improved joint performance and reduced threat of arthritis. You would surely decrease the risk of high blood pressure, heart disease and other risky things that pop up. Those are just some of the benefits you would get when you work that body. So, start working that body and show the world what you have benefitted from exercising.

Don’t forget to Eat

Experts say that breakfast is the most important meal of the day, so don’t miss breakfast. It is important because it gains the energy you need to start your day and because it is linked to many health benefits. Also, eating breakfast helps you feel less tired and helps keep you concentrated on the things you need to accomplish within the day. You may be conscious about your body which is why you may be concentrated on dieting, but you still need to have a breakfast each morning.

Show that Smile 

As you say your prayers and be intimate with the Creator, why not try to smile? Aside from being thankful for another day, smiling to a new day actually helps you start your day with a positive vibe. It helps you feel good and ultimately makes you happy. It removes all that stress in you and replaces it with a worry-free morning. So smile but don’t just smile; show the world your best smile!

Go Crazy

One of the greatest ways to have that extra special dose of happiness is listening to your favorite song. Music helps relax your mind and helps you feel good about your day. It encourages you to be magnificent and to be who you want to be. So turn the volume up, sing your heart out and shake that body to the beat of the music!

Simply You

Simple joys in life are worth more than the happiness you get from having fame and fortune. You may be rich and famous but somehow there would come a time that you won’t be happy anymore and all that fame and money would somehow cease to exist. Don’t miss out on all the things that make you happy. What matters most is how happy your heart is and how your happiness infects other people.

Meditate

Meditation is a way for you to master peace and to lengthen your patience. It is a way of being one with the world and to feel the stillness of it all. It is a way for you to take a break even just for a couple of minutes. And by meditating, you get to harness your inner legend and be that inner legend within yourself.

As you work on starting your day right, accompany it with a cup of happiness and you’ll surely get that savory mixture and that lovely feeling that would surely do you well.

Chapter 2 - How to Uncover Your Passion

What discerns passion from talent? Or are they congruent to one another? Passion is a determination - a dynamism that drives you to do something while talent is natural in a person. Passion needs rationalization and confirmation while talent only needs manifestation. Talent exists without us comprehending the why and what of its existence. Passion is what fuels or motivates skills. Passion is what gets you through in this world when talent is not enough. Doing something that is already second nature to you and adoring every minute of it would likely motivate you to have success than completing something difficult and uninspiring.

So what are the ways to finding your passion in life?

Meditate. Passion is a huge force. It is unseen when it is not propelling something forward, such as talent. Therefore, passion can be more difficult to ascertain than talent. You might have several inner talents such as drawing, singing and carving. One of these skills could be your passion in life.  It isn't easy to decipher our large number of wishes and dreams into passion or just temporary obsession. You need to think from your inner core. To have the ability to access your inner core, you will need to meditate. Find a place where you can be still and be at peace with your surroundings. Dive down to your inner core to draw on your deepest and truest aspirations in life. Ask yourself these questions:

a. What is my objective in life?

b. What occupies most of my time?

c. What do I really like doing?

d. If I will get the opportunity to do one thing for the rest of my life, what would it be?

e. What would I do even if I don't get any payment or received anything for it in return?

f. What is it that I really do that animates me?

g. What makes me forget everything else aside from what I am doing?

If you can answer these questions in all honesty then you'll find important clues that will help you define your passion in life. You need to really concentrate on your inner self, before you try to answer these questions. If you are touching this self, you would be able to understand the situation more clearly and answer these questions without bias.

Make a list of what you wish to do. Before you start your list, you should think about things which you have dreamed of doing but never got around to. You might not have done such things because of some factors such as - you didn't have courage to do it; you lack the money for it; your family was against it; you were too worried to fail hence you never even tried it or it was way beyond your comfort zone. To make this specific list though, you will need to include all of that you have imagined doing without awareness of the factors which have hampered you from doing it before. Look over your list in case you might have missed out on something that had interests you in the past. Include all you have imagined doing even though you think it's highly impractical, high-risk or vivid. Maybe it isn't really your passion but who knows? While doing it, you might suddenly discover your true passion in life, that something which ignites a raging flame in you.

Try to experience at least five of those included in your list. At the soonest possible time, you should try to do at least ten of those that you've included in your list. Personally experiencing it'll give you an inkling of what really interests you, what lights you up more than anything else. Passion is what makes a usually quiet person talk animatedly about a particular subject; about his passion in life. You can't ever really know what drives or excites you most if you haven’t done a whole lot of interesting things in your life. Have a firsthand experience of the probable things that would make your adrenalin going. Take a shot and who knows? You might realize just what it is that you would want to do for the rest of your life.

Experiment with a new sport or take up a new hobby. You may not realize it yet because you have not tried doing it or taking it up, however your passion could be snowboarding or scuba diving. There are many sports which you can try on your own such as mountain biking, swimming, archery or jogging. You can even try team sports activities such as volleyball, field hockey or softball if you want to work it out with a group. You could also consider going for a
