Best techniques for 'bigging' ones self up

[joshua44]

I'm a skinny guy, not very tall (5ft 8), I'm confident in the way that I'm not down on myself and that I'll happily talk to someone new when I'm out, however I'd like to know some self techniques on improving my personality so that I'm more confident and think more of myself.

Thanks.

Well, there's affirmations - that's when you tell yourself a mantra like "I'm good enough, I'm smart enough, and gosh darn it, people like me!"

As for your physical concerns, talk to a trainer or nutritionist or fitness pro. Or search online, there is an infinite amount of information available. I'm sure you'll find suggestions to eat high protein, good carbs, etc and to lift weights.

Seriously, though, I find confidence and intelligence to be the sexiest traits in a man. Get comfortable in your own skin and it will show. I'm sure I'm not alone in this preference.

Yes I think most women just like a genuine man who is either, funny, intelligent, witty or .. something else.

I'm not much taller than you are (5'9"), but how you carry yourself can go a long way. Stand up straight/avoid slouching and you'll seem an inch taller than most people your height.

Aside from that, it's all about keeping your mind focused on your positive traits and telling yourself why you are a catch for women or why you are a fun guy to hang out with. If you're funny, remind yourself of that. Same thing if you are successful in work, if you are a good cook, if you are a world-class foosball player, whatever. Focus on your positive attributes in your mind and that will come out in your personality.
