When my hair looks great and I don't feel bloated, I have a slight confidence boost. Superficial, I know, but that's the world we live in.

The thing that can boost my confidence the most is when someone of the opposite sex, who is not related to me, tells me that I look good.

Apart from that there's listening to my favorite music and singing to myself. I love the privacy of my own home for this.

When I discover something about myself that makes me realize I am or can become a better person, like realizing the shame I had foisted on my by my ultra religious upbringing and that I am a good person, strong, confident and Dominant and that I am learning to let out the Man I AM. Also the job interview I went on and the psychological and physical changes of quitting smoking and working out for the last year.

It was probably last week when like 7 people gave me a hug all in that one day. I don't know why that would give you any confidence, but I guess it did it for me.

I shared some of my stories on the internet and a bunch of people thought they were hilarious. Cool

Doing thing's you're good at always give you confidence, it seems. I am at my best when I am out with my band playing at some local show because I am confident in my own abilities and I worked for years to get where I am with it, and I am happy with myself and the impression I make through music. Working out helps, too.
