What does confidence look like?
Let's take a look at some of the more common characteristics of people with different low self esteem and level of confidence.
The bully or aggressive type.
Bullies and aggressive types are often very insecure about themselves and use confrontation to hide their insecurity. Deep down, they are often very angry people who harbour a lot of regrets and bad feeling about their past or the way they have been treated. They believe that aggression will get them what they want from life, and have no consideration for other people's feelings. They often BRAG about what they have achieved or what they are doing. They also like the sound of their own voice and are very bad listeners as they have no interest in other people at all. They generally like being in control and don't mind stepping on other people to get what they want.
The emotional, abusive type.
The emotional, abusive type likes to control others, both mentally and physically, if they can. They have a knack of draining the self-esteem out of others and often leave them feeling low in confidence. They are very good with words and try to outwit anyone they meet. They are self-obsessed and don't have the ability to care for others' feelings. They live off the energy and emotions of others, leaving them feeling zapped of energy. They never think that they are in the wrong and play mental games with people, so it is always someone else's fault. They thrive in and perpetuate the blame culture.
Hmm. Hahaha. I've met many people like this. I guess they need to have other's self confidence to gain theirs.
Truth is, I can easily read a person and pretend that i'm just a little girl in the corner who got nothing to say and OBSERVE every little thing they do, every bit of their words. Acting is my thing. I love observing people.
What KNOCKS your confidence?? :D
