Designed to unlock the latent power of confidence that lies within us all, The School of Life’s Confidence Workbook is at once insightful, inspirational and practical.
Framed in the context of the benefits of confidence — “a boundless humility, a capacity for empathy, a deep openness to the moods of others, an openness to apologising and (usually) an advanced tendency towards generosity, forbearance and kindness” — it opens with an acknowledgement that “almost nothing in psychological life changes overnight”. As such, users are invited to create their own personal pledge to develop confidence along a path that suits them.
With chapters featuring questions that enable users to identify how their confidence issues might have arisen in childhood and through their formative years, and how such issues continue to manifest themselves, The Confidence Workbook arms readers with the tools (and words) to become more self-assured, and lead more fulfilling lives.

The Confidence Workbook Synopsis
A therapeutic and inspiring workbook with exercises to build confidence
The difference between a successful and a disappointing life often comes down to a critical ingredient that we overlook at our peril: confidence.
This is a book with a practical purpose: to take us through exercises that help us rediscover the confidence we all already have inside us-the confidence that we have neglected out of habit, fear or meekness. It's a faculty we are all endowed with and confidence can flourish with the right kind of practice and encouragement.
This workbook contains over fifty exercises that flex our confident faculties and guide us to greater effectiveness in our relationships, in our working lives and in our approach to ourselves. This includes a Self-Esteem Audit to identify what we might have gone through in our early lives, asking questions such as: Do you think you are essentially a good person? Were your parents essentially supportive or not? Do you hate or like being you? There are sections focusing on confidence in relationships, friendships, and at work.
This is a tool to unlock our latent powers - and help us become who we long, and deserve, to be.
Pair with the Confidence Prompt Cards, designed to help you find confidence and battle against timidity.
