Pillars of Confidence #1)
Stop Lying
The Latin root of confidence is 'fid' which means trust.
So another way to say self-confidence is self-trust.
Imagine this for a moment.
You have a buddy who keeps telling you things and not following through. Little stuff. But every time he says something, he doesn't do it. This happens for years. Mess up after mess up.
Would you trust him? Obviously not.
And the same goes for our internal world. How can you increase your self-confidence (self-trust) if you keep lying to others?
I talked about this exact concept in a recent interview with the legendary Joel & Antonia over at Personality Hacker. Listen to the video below (2 minutes):
Either tell the truth or don't lie.
You degrade your character every time you lie. You become weaker and weaker. Be honest. Tell the truth no matter how painful it is in the short run.
Jordan Peterson
"The worst thing that you can do to someone is to lie to them. You don't lie to people; you don't lie to yourself because it warps you - it warps the structure of reality itself & you don't want to do that because it'll kick back & take you out"
Do this over time and watch your core confidence drastically improve.
Pillars of Confidence #2)
Be Careful With Your Commitments
As a powerful man, you must recognize the power of your words.
The words you use to speak create your reality.
The language of your subconscious mind is spoken through words and pictures.
Now, as a continuation of pillar #1, if you say you are going to do something, you must do it. You MUST become a slave to your word.
Every time you say you will do something and follow through, your energy shifts from the lower world to the higher ones.
Your word can become an actual superpower. Enough to move mountains.
The way to tap into this is simple. Just keep your fucking word.
The only way to do this is to be careful with your commitments. Stop saying YES to everything. Say NO, because you recognize the power of your YES. If you say YES then it's done.
Pillars of Confidence #3)
Get Sexy
It's very simple.
When you look good, you feel good.
A great body is earned. There are no shortcuts. Of course, listening to a program like Greek God can greatly decrease the time for your results. However, to keep and maintain an excellent physique takes discipline, commitment and consistency.
It's an honest signal to the world. You earned this body. In terms of physical power, looking sexy raises your overall status.
You will earn more money. Attract hotter women (and the opposite for women of course). And feel better about yourself (self-esteem).
Look, don't get mad when I say this. This is the reality of the world. The faster you accept it, the quicker you can utilize this to your advantage.
Pillars of Confidence #4)
Subliminal Audio
Around a year and a half ago our team started listening to subliminal audio. Believe me when I say this, we were BEYOND skeptical about the effectiveness.
But slowly and surely, listening to subliminal audio became a literal cheat code to reality.
Our internal beliefs shape our external world.
Listening to a delusional confidence track fills your mind with new, power thoughts. Doing this combined with the other 9 pillars is a game changer.
Using subliminals is the most effective and fastest way to change your negative, limiting beliefs into more powerful ones. It's like driving cars through your city instead of horses.

Pillars of Confidence #5)
Your Social Circle
I'm sure you've heard this quote before.
You are the average of the five people you hang around with?
Well, it's true.
Hang out with weak men, and guess who you'll become.
Hang out with powerful men, and guess who you'll become.
This relates to the amount of money you'll make. Social status. Mindset. Health and fitness.
We are a social animal. Our environment influences us greatly.
"My best friend is the one who brings out the best in me."
- Henry Ford -
Stop hanging out with scrubs. Befriend confident people.
If you don't know any yet - watch confident people on youtube. 1hour a day minimum. While it isn't as effective as face-to-face interaction, they will still become part of your top 5.
Pillars of Confidence #6)
Change Your Mental Chatter
Our core message here at DWW is simple.
Your future success is dependent on winning the war within.
The daily battles inside of your mind.
"In your hands will be placed the exact results of your thoughts; you will receive that which you earn, no more, no less. Whatever your present environment may be, you will fail, remain, or rise with your thoughts, your wisdom, desire, as great as your dominant aspiration."
James Allen
Is your mind building you up or tearing you down?
Is your mind a cheerleader? Constantly pushing you to do more and be more?
For most of us, that's simply not the case.
We were raised in environments that were negative. Maybe we picked up this thinking from our parents, friends, school. And, it's not their fault. They didn't know better. But at the end of the day, you picked it up and it entered your subconscious mind.
95% of your behavior comes from the subconscious. I guarantee if you say “I’m just the type of guy that is extremely confident” 100,000 times you will be.
“Do not allow negative thoughts to enter your mind for they are the weeds that strangle confidence.”
-Bruce Lee
This is crucial for you to understand. If you want a different result in the real world, it must be changed in the mind first.
That's why subliminals are so effective. They bypass the conscious and go straight to the source.
Change your mental chatter and watch your confidence immediately skyrocket.
Pillars of Confidence #7)
Become Competent
This is a key pillar for your overall confidence.
Competence. Mastery. Growth.
Developing a skill or passion. Working on it for 10,000 hours+. This process is challenging and will test you.
There are six levels of skill. Novice, advanced beginner, competent, proficient, expert and master according to the Dreyfuss model. We break them down in this article.
The higher up the ladder you go, the more you harness your superpower.
There is a certain air of confidence that any master in the world has.
It can be knitting. Chess. Martial arts. The most gangster activity or something more chill.
Attaining superb proficiency in a skill rewires you for self-assuredness.
Pillars of Confidence #8)
Do Scary Shit
Yes, it would be nice if this wasn't included.
But for anything of true worth, there is a price to pay.
For confidence, it's doing scary shit. Stuff that is outside of your comfort zone.
Travel. Give a speech. Learn to dance. Ask that girl out. Start a business.
Take daily actions that scare you. Raise your adrenaline. Fill you with fear and excitement.
This is one of the most inspiring things in the entire universe. Seeing someone experience fear and resistance, feeling it fully and still moving forward.
Bro. If you do what you've always done, you will get what you've always gotten.
This is the game of life.
But remember this. After you do something, it becomes a tiny bit easier the next time.
Just like if you get a virus. Once you heal from it, your body produces antibodies and you become more immune.
Same with experiences. The more you do it, the easier it becomes.
Pillars of Confidence #9)
Talk to Strangers
This one is soooooooooo important.
You must develop your social prowess to be a really confident man. We are a social animal. We are a tribal animal.
Communicating with other humans opens up a world of possibilities and opportunities for you.
Say hello on the bus. Wave to strangers. Introduce yourself to that hot girl, while being sober.
Talk to strangers, get rejected, receive positive feedback.
Let your subconscious mind accept that people are friendly. The world is a beautiful place. You are safe. People like you.
You can't be 100% confident if you're afraid of talking to others. It's that simple.
Pillars of Confidence #10)
Don't Gratify Impulses
Saved this for last because of it's importance to you.
Every time you gratify an impulse you lose your ability to trust yourself.
In my entire life, the most confidence I've ever been. Literally felt as though there was an indestructible force field around me, was when I was transmuting every impulse into a higher energy.
“We must all suffer one of two things: the pain of discipline or the pain of regret and disappointment.”
Jim Rohn
“With self-discipline, most anything is possible.”
Theodore Roosevelt
Resist the temptation.
Sacrifice the momentary pleasure for a life of meaning and fulfillment.
Once you apply this 10 pillars of confidence, don't be surprised when all your friends and family will ask you your secrets, and how you "changed".
That concludes this article.

PS. You fall into one of two groups.
Group a) you are serious about increasing your confidence and becoming the most powerful version of yourself.
