Practice positive self-talk. Notice when the inner critic is being unkind. Replace negative thoughts, such as "I can't do this," with more encouraging statements like "I'll give it my best shot".

Reframe thoughts. Instead of seeing a mistake as a complete failure, ask what can be learned from the experience to create a more positive outcome next time.

Stop comparing yourself to others. Social media often presents an unrealistic view of other people's lives. Focus on your own progress and celebrate your own unique achievements. 

Take action and set achievable goals

Embrace small victories. Set small, achievable goals and celebrate reaching them. This creates a positive feedback loop that helps build trust in yourself.

Step outside your comfort zone. Trying new things, even if it scares you a little, proves you are capable of growth and can handle challenges.

Learn a new skill. Developing a new skill shows you are capable of learning and growing, which can boost your confidence.
