The Confidence Book
by Gordon Lamont
Few people lack confidence all the time, and many people are more confident with friends, or when practising a skill they know, such as working on a computer or cooking a meal. Yet, too often, these skills of confidence in everyday contexts may be dismissed as "that's nothing" or "that doesn't count" precisely because they are so familiar.
This book aims to help people identify their areas of confidence and to extend them in small and practical increments. Confidence is seen not as a matter of what you feel, but what you do. Get the practice right and the feelings will follow.
The book includes practical exercises with a focus on changing negative thoughts to overcome negative behaviour.
