    Get incredibly sweaty (aka a good workout) and I reflect on how far I've come in my weight loss journey, my career, and (since very recently) how much I've healed since my unexpected breakup three months ago. Or, I put on a sexy dress, go out to the bar (if it's not a school night), and get lots of free alcohol without sacrificing any of my morals :)

    Stand naked in the mirror and identify all the things I love about me (I know it sound narcissistic but it works for me).

    A good kickboxing class if I need an enery/moral boost. If I need to feel like I'm in more control, I clean up the clutter!

    My wife has a 'Dreams' and 'Inspiration' pots with coloured glass beads. For every pound she wants to lose, there is a glass bead in the 'Dreams' pot. For every pound she loses, she moves a bead from it to the 'Inspiration' pot. When she's down about her weight loss, she looks at the pots and it reminds her that what she's doing IS working.

    I like to look in a mirror and point out all the things I like about myself, that generally helps

    I like to accomplish as much as I can in a day. Getting things done makes me feel good. Also, I agree with getting "dressed". The better I look, the better I feel.

    I take a shower. I know it seems simple, but It makes me feel cleansed in a way. Once my body is clean. I start to feel better right away.

    - get dressed up, try on my nice clothes
    - wash and straighten my hair
    - have a long bath
    - go to the gym
    - sit and relax with a cup of coffee and my Kindle

    *I don't get to do most of these very often, apart from the gym, as I have a 3 year old and a 1 year old!

    What do you do for confidence? What makes you feel good about yourself?

    Anything that gives a sense of accomplishment, whether it's kicking *kitten* in a workout, finally getting around to getting all the laundry put away, decorating (rearranging furniture, hanging new art, painting the walls), creating something (painting, sewing, crafting), and when all else fails, putting on the brightest red lipstick I own.

    a long run! Coming home sweaty and breathless makes me feel awesome...its a bit of the endorphins and knowing I just kicked major butt! I will feel good all day after this!
