There is a Scottish Expression (well I think it is Scottish anyway) that says money goes to money which states that those who already have money can then invest and make even more than those with nothing.
But I think the same is true for confidence. When we feel good about ourselves we are then in a better place to then engage in activities which will further boost our confidence. Taking risks, meeting new people and trying new activities.
Sadly the opposite is true and we can get trapped in a vicious circle with our lives becoming smaller and smaller.
The secret is, I feel, is to have a least one or two things which bring us confidence. For me it is exercise but it could be anything. So have a think about a hobby or pastime that will make you feel better about yourself regardless of whatever else is going on in your life and stick to it.
Regardless of how low on self belief or energy I am feeling I always force myself out for a run or a cycle and it seems to work.
Cheers
