BOOST YOUR SELF-CONFIDENCE TO LEVELS YOU HAVE NEVER REACHED BEFORE! Self-confidence is when you have faith in yourself and your abilities in a particular situation, and it does not relate to overall self-worth. If your self-confidence levels are low, it is because you are not comfortable in a particular setting, for whatever reason. Self-confidence matters in our personal lives too. In order to find friends or develop relationships, we must have confidence in our abilities to form them. A lack of confidence does not allow you to communicate assertively, which is important in order to get what you want. If you suffer from low self-confidence, then every aspect of your life will suffer. In This Book You Will Learn: Γ£ô Self-Confidence In Various SituationsΓ£ô How a Lack of Self-Confidence Affects UsΓ£ô Social Anxiety and Lack of Confidence In Specific SituationsΓ£ô How To Learn to Become More ComfortableΓ£ô Tricks To Destroy Negative ThoughtsΓ£ô How To Be Kind, Generous, and PreparedΓ£ô Know Your Principles and Live By ThemΓ£ô Increase Your Competence LevelsΓ£ô How To Set Small Goals and Achieve ThemΓ£ô To Focus Your Attention on SolutionsΓ£ô How To Overcome ProcrastinationAnd so much more!Self-confidence is circumstantial and will impact various areas of your life differently.

The key is to have self-confidence in the important areas of our lives, where it really matters. Pick up your copy of the book right now by clicking the BUY NOW button at the top of this page!

John Taylor (1578-1653), known in his lifetime and ever since as the 'Water-Poet', wrote some two hundred pamphlets on every conceivable subject of interest to his contemporaries. A native of Gloucester who became a London waterman, he employed his ebullient wit and facility with words to make a reputation, if not a fortune, from his writing in prose and verse. His descriptions of the fourteen journeys he made between 1616 and 1653 around Britain (and twice to the continent), are not only entertaining to read, but an important source for anyone interested in travel, places and society before, during and just after the Civil Wars. This expanded edition of a work first published in 1999 adds the two foreign adventures and a group of pamphlets describing carriers, coaches, inns and taverns, with brief introductions to each work, annotations and an index of persons and places.

One of the major works of the Virginian John Taylor of Caroline [1753-1824]. Little-known today, Taylor's work is of great significance in the political and intellectual history of the South and is essential for understanding the constitutional theories that Southerners asserted to justify secession in 1861. Construction Construed and Constitutions Vindicated was Taylor's response to a series of post-War of 1812 developments including John Marshall's Supreme Court decision in McCulloch v. Maryland, the widespread issuance of paper money by banks, proposals for a protective tariff, and the attempt to bar slavery from Missouri. Along with many other Southerners, Taylor feared that these and other measures were undermining the foundations of American republicanism. He saw them as the attempt of an "artificial capitalist sect" to corrupt the virtue of the American people and upset the proper constitutional balance between state and federal authority in favor of a centralized national government. iv, 344 pp.
