  1. Try to be confident all the time, mistakes can happen to confident and non-confident people.

    good luck


  2. train hard do the hard yards and playing will come east... A football team needs all types to make a goodside...

  3. how old would you be  - can you get along with your coach - wat about your other team mates - they surely make mistakes no body is perfect - i coached  from 5 yr old to 16 yr old - sure we had our ups and downs but i would talk to the team at trainings  and make sure every one was happy and there home life as well - the team won every champion ship in auck thru the grades - if you respect your coach maybe you should have a talk with him  - im sure he would under stand - good luck roydie

    Music

    Music is released everyday, it never stops. Blast out your favorite music on your iPod and sing along to it. It gets you in a confident state. If you don't have an MP3 player get one, shove all your favorite music on it. Listen when you're getting ready to go out. This is a huge state pumper. Get variety, spice it up "cause if you"re listening to same thing over and over you'll become bored of it.

    Body and Mind

    The two are connected and influence each other. Use this to your advantage. Start by being aware of your breath. Breathe deep from the stomach (health benefits also). Take up space, hands out of pockets, don't fidget, use much slower movements. Smile. Not a fake smile. Think of something that makes you laugh or just happy and smile. The smile comes from the eyes, the mouth follows. Fake smiles start from the mouth. It's subtle but we sense it. Find someone famous who is confident and watch how they behave.

    Inner/Outer Dialogue

    Inner/Outer Dialogue

    When you look at yourself in the mirror, you have to accept and love yourself - *No matter what!* You're looking in the mirror... Tell yourself "I am the bomb!", "Knock "em dead baby!", whatever works for you. You don"t need a logical reason to be confident really but if they help you then use "em. When you"re talking among others, project your voice and use emotion. Be enthusiastic. You've got to be aware if you are being uncertain or talking to yourself negatively. Stop. Breathe. Imagine a sheet of blank white paper. This interrupts your state and you can start focusing on how cool you really are again. It's easy to lose track but once your on, you're confident and unaware of it because you don't need to be aware of it anymore.

    Physical Activity

    Gym, football, dancing, swimming, whatever. Just moving around makes you feel more confident. I know I feel great after coming home from the gym, I'm a lot more creative like when writing articles and even talking to others. It's like a confident flow-state and everything goes well and it's all natural.

    Treat Yourself

    Get some really good looking comfortable clothes, a haircut, a massage or even a shower (hah, just kidding). This gets rid of the old subconscious anchors you might have to yourself. An anchor is a feeling inside yourself that's triggered by something that happened in the past. Like an old favourite  song you haven't heard in years brings certain feelings back.
