All around you, at work, on television, on the streets, in your neighborhood, and everywhere, you have the opportunity to observe self-confident people.

Undoubtedly, you already know several.

Have you ever taken the time to stop and observe what they do?

• How do they work?
• What do they say?
• How do they dress?
• How do they carry themselves?
• When do they pause?
• How do they interact with others?

Self-confident people leave clues.

After you’ve watched for a while, question as well.

Ask self-confident people why they do what they do. Most will be happy to tell you.

If you find yourself attracted to the self-confidence in others, it’s likely that you have the capacity for greater self-confidence yourself.

Imitation is a fundamental mode of learning.

The qualities you admire in other people quite often indicate what’s undeveloped but fully attainable within you.

If you could arrange your life and be surrounded by self-confident people, human nature being what it is, eventually, you’d become more like them.

Unfortunately, it’s not likely you can structure your life to be around self-confident people all the time.

You’ve got to interact with people from all parts of the behavioral spectrum.

If you remain cognizant of who’s self-confident and the distinctions between their behavior and that of others, you may just be among the lucky few who awake one bright morning and find that you, too, are a highly self-confident person.
