By projecting more confidence in their tone, body language, and delivery, people (global corporate trainers like me) can improve their influence. This can help presentations be more interesting, address difficult queries, and establish a closer relationship with the audience. Flexibility lets one make changes depending on the degree of group participation, therefore improving the results. Moreover, confidence helps participants believe the trainer is more reliable and knowledgeable, therefore promoting responsiveness and trust. This confidence not only helps to control the matter but also supports the trainer's reputation.
Confidence is key, especially in areas like leadership, sales, and fundraising.
If you come across as doubtful while pitching your business, it makes you seem unsure of its success. Imagine what this does to an investor, if you don’t believe in it, why would they?
This doesn’t mean you have to ‘lie’ about your product or service. Lying creates unhappy customers, which harms word-of-mouth marketing and retention rates.
Example:
You’re an early-stage tech startup in the building phase. Your product is buggy, but you’re solving a major issue for your customers. Instead of focusing on the flaws, highlight the ROI of solving that problem. Convince them by saying:
“We’re a startup that will go all in for you, allowing you to co-create key parts of our product as we continue developing. This makes sure the solution meets your exact needs while saving you development resources, all while supporting an early-stage company.”

What do you do when you are in a relationship but you don't trust your partner because he/she cheated on you multiple times?
Trust is the glue that holds two people together, it can be compromised sometimes yes because we are human, yes, but how we respond to those that we have compromised their trust is so important. Simple this like I am sorry, with deep remorse goes a long way. Making it up to you with action is also a good start. Over the years I have learnt that we are all bruised human beings and we make mistakes but if it was an honest mistake, that relationship is work another try. I figure that he has said sorry multiple times but his actions don't say so right? hence the multiple cheating. In this case, I personally feel like you have to choose you. You have to make a choice that will make you feel good about yourself. Leave the heart out of this conversation for a moment because judging by your question, the heart is definitely ruling your relationship here. Be honest with yourself and ask your younger self if you are really happy with where you are. the inner child will always set you free from whatever you are going through. If you have any questions, or would like to chat, I am here to help. All the best, XOXOJY

My child has self-confidence issues and doesn't always believe her first answer is right, although it is most of the time. How do I help her?
Hello, What a great question. One of my favorite coaching topics is overcoming insecurities. It is a favorite because the results are exponentially rewarding! Not knowing the particulars limit my responses; therefore, broad-strokes answer is as follows: Fundamentally, the underlying cause of your daughter’s inhibitions should be addressed because intellect is not necessarily synonymous with self-portrait. I am not suggesting that your daughter should be psychoanalyzed; I am suggesting that it may take more than (positive reinforcement) to help your daughter communicate more effectively, which is a powerful tool in defining oneself, subsequently creating confidence that results in a more assured person even when that person’s thought, act, or response is incorrect. The confidence is derived from the process of doing the task to the best of one’s ability and having satisfaction in knowing that one has exhausted due diligence for the outcome. With the proper exercises, this type of insecurity is easily resolved. I hope this broad-strokes response provided some clarity for your daughter and you. “How to Communicate Effectively,” is one of my top skills-set. You may send me a message or call if you believe I may be of assistance. Regardless, I hope continued academic success for your daughter and a lasting positive resolution in her self-confidence. (smile)DP

Does anybody need to solve anyone else problems and got in troubles?
It is completely normal to feel stuck in a situation where our intentions had been to help others but we get ourselves in trouble. This kind of experience makes us human and prevent us from future events that might be more damaging to us by teaching us some lesson. However, when you love someone you can go an extra mile for them because this is what relationships are for. But, there is a silver lining between the right and wrong types of boundaries. We must be mindful that we are not caring for others till the point that we are self-sabotaging ourselves in order to care for others. We must be mindful that there are some requests that we should say "no" to in order to develop healthy boundaries. For example, you have a meeting in the upcoming hour in the office with your manager and you have not prepared for it but you have only a few minutes left to prepare which leaves you panicking. Then, a friend of yours comes and says they are hungry and want to have lunch with you in the cafe because you are their only friend. At this point, it is better to negotiate to them about your own tight schedule because if you would go the extra mile for them it will sabotage your own happiness because it might end up having a bad meeting with your boss. I hope I provided you the answer.FI
