Boost Yourself with Confidence Poems
I hope you enjoy the poems on this page. Sometimes a message is conveyed more effectively and completely through the medium of poetry, than it is through long explanations.
If you like any of these, try reading them through each day for a while, or commit them to memory. Even better, you might try writing your own.
I Will Have Courage
Today I will have courage To do one thing that is new I will be kind to another And to myself be true
Today I will remember The blessings that are mine I'll live the day with confidence And for me the sun will shine
Out of all the poems, I like this next one the best. It was inspired by observing another person speak their mind with ease - something I was finding difficulty doing myself.
Speaking Your Mind
Don't you admire the rough diamond who speaks his mind, Calls a spade a spade, leaves all pretence behind And everyone knows where they stand. Blunt and to the purpose, no cap in hand With hob-nailed boots he never stoops, Nor deigns to jump through social hoops, The rough diamond who speaks his mind.
But for those more civilised and refined You can just open your mouth and speak your mind. Be yourself, and from your inner comfort words will come To clothe the substance of your being, and some One else will wonder at your social grace, Bask in the light reflected from your face, The polished diamond who speaks his mind.
At times life can seem too much to cope with. The next poem reminds us that a fresh perspective can help.
When Life Feels Like A Mountain
When life feels like a mountain Standing high in front of me I pretend I am a bird Flying fast and free
Winging up the mountainside The peak now sharp defined Draws me ever upwards Fear and doubt are left behind
Soaring above the summit The world lies at my feet A carpet rich in possibility Unfolds beneath
So when life feels like a mountain Spread your wings and fly Concentrate your mind And aim for the sky
On the wings of confidence You'll find everything you need The birds-eye view clearly shows The best way to succeed
This next poem is about building self esteem.
Loving Yourself
Love your neighbour as yourself Is what we're taught to do. When you give to others, don't forget The love that's due to you.
Loving yourself begins With being your own best friend, With kindness and respect On which you can depend.
Love yourself for just being you And self esteem will grow. Praise yourself for the things you do Self confidence will surely follow.
