Answer 1

I believe self confidence comes from everything.  Let it be your actions or the actions of others, but all in all it  is those experiences that give you the feeling that you can do anything.  From the first day you walked home from school by yourself all the way to when your boss gives you a promotion, any factor can build or destroy self confidence.

Answer 2

By somehow validating yourself and getting rid of memories of past invalidations. Scientology does that really well because it goes into past life invalidations which of course involve the biggest invalidations of being killed and dying.

Answer 3

It can be from family, friends and self. I like the quote

"Those who mind don't matter, those who matter don't mind." Dr Seuss.

It means, those who matter the most to you will uplift you and help you gain a sense of self and boost self confidence. Those who do not matter to you don't have to effect the way you feel about your self, it's up to you who you let bring you down and who you let life your spirits.

Answer 12

From a number of the various sources that affect the enivorment around you, as well as you.

Answer 13

Answer 14

from doing stuff for yourself...which requires you to "hear" your desires and then try to accomplish them.  figure out what you need/want and go about getting it.  And  go to the gym a lot- for some reason working out makes you have like 10x the amount of self-confidence (even if u don't have the perfect body lol)
