Take a risk

Taking a risk may be scary and intimidating to many. Studies have found that people rather stay passive rather than confronting an uncomfortable situation. There is a strong desire to maintain a positive reputation, and it causes people to second-guess themselves and take a safe route instead. Practicing assertiveness tactics can help a person become more confident. This speech will cover how to overcome our uncertainties and push us to be assertive.

Dressing Uniquely Can Improve Your Mental Health

Dressing uniquely can improve your mental health. As humans, we all have a need to be unique. However, when it comes to clothing, we typically are lazy shoppers. When we take the time and energy to develop our own personal style, we will give ourselves more energy in the long run, as well as increase our self-esteem and confidence.
