how does one gain more confidence?

honestly, as cute as shyness can be and as polite as modesty is, confidence is one of the most valuable tools a person can have. those that have it have a huge advantage over those that do not, and those that have it in abundance are annoying as heck, but they still have the upper hand. 

just think about the specific areas in which you are confident. you do well in those endeavors because you predict efforts will end up in success. you base that certainty on your past performances or training in that area. 

monologue of a confident person

i am confident when it comes to [insert area of expertise]. when i do [mastered activity] i always have succeeded and feel sure of my success when faced with doing [mastered activity]. i can engage in [mastered activity] without any hesitation what so ever. 

now imagine if your entire personality was like that! im sure i have wasted 50% of my life hesitating or imaging what it would be like to succeed at whatever i am too chicken to attempt but greatly wish to achieve. 

so my question is, how does one exercise their confidence muscle to make it bigger and stronger, to have that advantage, to cease wasting precious time waiting and wondering?
