While numerous self-help guides rely on trivial tricks and supposed instructions, this book takes a much simpler and more effective approach: understanding is the key, and there is no universal recipe that works for everyone! It's not about being told a specific behavior to adopt, but about recognizing for oneself what needs to be done to become more confident, happier, and more successful. Bestselling author and self-confidence coach Michael Leister explains in a friendly and easily understandable way what self-confidence really is, why so many people lack it, and how one can attain it. To assist with this, he outlines numerous simple and practical methods and provides real case studies from his coaching sessions. How can one evaluate and apply what has been read in the most efficient way? And how does one ultimately develop a functioning strategy for everyday life? Leister's promise: This will be the last book one needs to read on the topic of "self-confidence"!.
