Confidence and Success > How to Build Confidence
Facing your younger self
theman:
I have enjoyed reading this. It is a older thread, but interesting. I am going to leave it as this . We all change as time goes on. We become older , wiser, and age like fine wine if we take care of ourselves. We in alot of ways get better with age so enjoy it and the pain in joints that comes with it. ;D

I can say that younger ladies, 30 and under, are still immature and can be harsh with their comments and looks. I can remember when I was in my 20's how I would react towards someone who was bald. I was immature back then and didn't know any better. Now, I'm in my 40's and I don't even flench when I see someone who is bald. I guess with age, I became wiser. It still doesn't make it any easier for the younger guys who are sly.
I am definitely not confident with my appearance now (not sly yet) and I know once I do it, I will struggle with the confidence thing for a while. Hopefully it will not drag out and I will accept the look, as well as my friends and family.
My biggest fear are the looks I will get from ladies I do not know. Being married, that should not matter but for some reason it does. I guess my take is your wife should love you and be attracted to you no matter what but getting positive responses from strangers would help in building confidence.

Not knowing alot about you. I would guess that you have a slight self confidence problem which I feel that one time or another in our lives we all have had questions. But if you want to you can over come this. The members on this board are very understanding trust me have been through some of there own questions in life. We are with ya.

Theman it's awesome to see you contributing so actively so soon, you are already giving valuable advice and I've really been enjoying your posts, good stuff!
@Nola Theman is right, with a bit of help you have the power to overcome, you seem realistic in that it may not be the easiest thing in the world, but trust me when I say, when you've done it, it will be a non-problem... it will be you, and it will be awesome

You are so very kind Slyfive, Thank You. I have been Sly for several years now, and went through some of the same problem when I first became sly. And in some respects I found I was my own worst enemy. My insecuritys were felt by others, and when I became a I AM COOL person , and walked with confidance and acted with confidance problems were gone. I watched Telly S. lol.
Thanks again. Have a Great Day.
