you are the best person you can be at every moment!
just make sure you are working on it as well...like a goal, aim.......that way you know you are accomplishig it, you know.
(you are whom you want to be- willingness)
-Spend time with people who love you as you are, especially those who've known you a long time
-Do things that you are good at and become better at them
-Achieve something that you are proud of and can look back on with pride
-Do things you are afraid of
-Stop thinking about yourself and do things for other people, who will appreciate you for it
-Pretend to be more confident and you will be. Remember shy people are boring.
i agree with sophee. few more points are:
1.learn some thing every day. a new word, new culture, history etc.
2. go for a walk or join a gym. it helps.
3. talk more but talk sense. i have seen people who talk talk n talk with out knowing what they are talking.
4. have a good circle of frnds. (personally i feel good staying alone)
Just exercise and eat healthier. Once your physical appearance improves, so will your self-esteem.

Yes, I heard faking it untill you make it works... but
Shy people are not boring people. Shy people are just regular people like you and me, except they do not share many personal information or express their full emotions. Shy people still live fulfilling lives. I can't believe someone said that. If you are shy, you should still accept yourself. Embrace who you are because individuality is something so pure and unique that you want to keep it! No one wants to be shy, but you can't live your life hating yourself for it. Sooner or later, you will get better with this. There are millions of shy people... and I guess that means they are boring! stereotypes are dumb
Doing something you are afraid of doing. This doesn't apply to everything but it is sort of true. Like meeting new people. It can be something you would not naturally do... but its good. Before doing anything you are afriad of doing though, you must make sure your mind set is ready. Things don't always turn out the way you imagine it in your head (bad or good). And thats life. But when things turned out bad, you must learn to not kill yourself over it or over think it. That is very very very important.
Part of having low self confidence is that negative self talk you give yourself. After... OR EVEN BEFORE doing something you probably tell yourself that you can't do it or you make up a story in your head where something goes terribly wrong... you have to recognize when you are over thinking things.
Boosting low-self esteem is very hard. I never encountered a single person who have said it was easy... but I seen it done many times before and it is very possible.
For some people, doing the simple things like exercising or joining clubs may help though. It really depends on how you are right now though
Im a 22 year old mom of 2... and Im about 15 pounds heavier than my normal weight... Even so, I look in the mirror and I pick out all the beautiful things about myself, instead of the bad ones. Also I don't pay attention to the girls on tv and the celebs, because they dont really exist, they arent part of my life and never will be so I don't apsire to look like them
So do this:
Get Naked... or underwear
Stand in front of the mirror
Say Out Loud: I LOVE YOU
Look from every angle...
And pick something that looks good
Its easy... or go to the bar and ask a guy/girl
to say one nice things about you, lol
but your opinion is what matters
Its YOUR confidence
Stop listening to other peoples (even family's) opinions of you. You are you, not them, and you cannot be expect to live up to their expectations. Especially when they themselves can't meet their own expectations.
