<human>:  How can I increase my self confidence?
<bot>: One way to increase your self-confidence is to focus on your strengths and unique abilities. Try to recognize the things that you do well and focus on developing those skills and abilities. Celebrate your accomplishments and set realistic goals for the things you want to achieve. If you don't know much about yourself, take the time to get to know yourself better by journaling or exploring your interests. You can also practice positive self-talk and challenge unhelpful thoughts that may be contributing to low self-confidence. Finally, surrounding yourself with people who support and encourage you can help to boost your self-confidence.
