Well known loser
Lately I think that ‘improving your confidence’ is one of the most insidious forms of advice people can get. What it means when we value this as the primary asset for success is that surface level is all;
it doesn’t matter what you say so much as how you say it. The content of your personality matters less than the way you carry yourself.
It encourages people to be lazy and make quick judgements based on first impressions. I’ve known and loathed shallow people that get by on fake bravado as plenty of people here have probably, don't you just hate them? So why hand out this advice so readily? What if this isn’t who you are, if you can’t stand putting on an act so that others will "like" you? What if you’re more comfortable gradually getting to know people, what then?
You would think those who experience real loneliness would hesitate re-enforcing the superficial standards that helped put them in that place.
