Factors  oosting your sel -confidence
                 There are some social, cultural and physical factors, which also play a vital role in building self confidence are:

                  ocial Factors: It is pre-evident that man is a social animal. We experience positivity and confidence when
                 people appreciate our effort and respect us. It can be understood simply that when a man is in a comfortable,
                 friendly environment, he forgets his weaknesses,  aws and incapabilities, rather he generates self confidence
                 and starts using his qualities more rationally and takes more interest in social issues too. Hence, social factor
                 plays an important role in confidence-building as he takes positive inputs from the society around him and
                 gives back the same.

                 Cultural  Factors:  In  this  scientific  era,  where  technology  has  excelled  so  much,  we  Indians  still  haven t
                 forgotten our culture, family values and ethics. Our traditional culture holds an important position in our
                 lives. Keeping or sticking to cultural habits or traditional ethics, a strong value system  or self-recognition is
                 felt in the personality of a person and such feeling gives more of self confidence.

                  hysical Factors: People who have well-maintained physique, health and are presentable are more confident
                 of their own self and their behaviour tends to be much more positive and impressive as compared to others.
                 Doing physical exercise or workout makes us physically fit and provides strength to our inner self. This enables
                 us to have self confidence as we feel stronger in body and mind too.
