Aaahhh self confidence. You pesky booger. We know you’re in there and you wanna come out… but you’re just SO damn hard to grasp!

Too gross of a visual comparison? Oh well. Saylahvee.

Here’s the scoop. 

Self confidence plays a huge role in our day-to-day lives, relationships, and mental health. But true confidence takes time to master and lots of practice and hard work to flourish. And weirdly, using self confidence captions for Instagram can help.

Confidence is somewhere inside ALL OF US. However, finding your confidence, pulling it out, and shining a spotlight on it can be a different and/or difficult journey for each of us. This is due to who we are, where we’ve been, and where we are going. 

Though we all might need to take different journey’s to expose our own inner confidence and inner beauty, I 100% believe that there are easy ways to manipulate our brains into feeling a higher confidence level by tweaking some aspects of our current everyday lives. Kind of like a sub-conscious way of training our brains to stop rejecting confidence. 

Like an authentic ‘fake it till you make it’, if you will. 

Why Use Captions and Quotes?

I think utilizing confident captions and quotes on social media is something easy that everyone can do. Not only will writing these confident captions slowly trick your brain into believing them over time, but it’ll be a nice thing for your followers to see on their feeds as well. It’s a win-win. 

I like to use self confidence captions for Instagram as daily affirmations (check out these affirmations for confidence and self love . I don’t have a practice of daily positive affirmations as for me personally, they kinda feel weird, forced, and icky.

And because of that, I never actually maintain the practice whenever I do try. BUT, I do know and understand the benefits of the practice of stating positivity. And sometimes just knowing what we need is the first step towards living our best life.

Which is why we’re talking about the best Instagram captions for self confidence.

Because I don’t practice affirmations, I’ve found that utilizing confidence quotes and captions on my social media is a great way to ingrain these thoughts and ideas into my mind while sharing positivity with others. 

And also I just wanna quickly say…  if you are someone who benefits from practicing affirmations on your own, that is INCREDIBLE and keep on keepin’ on! The best way to find confidence is to lean into what works best for you. I just wanted to say that sharing confidence captions on your social media or instagram posts can be a great alternative for someone like me, who does not practice affirmations but would benefit from them. 

Anywho, whether or not you practice affirmations daily, taking your positivity and inspiration to social media can have a positive impact on both yourself and those around you. And we can all admit, the entire universe definitely needs a lot more sunshine and positivity. 

So, if you struggle with a lack of confidence and would like to be the best version of yourself, let’s give it a whirl! These 112 quotes make the perfect captions for social media and will serve both you and your followers with providing the positive energy we all need!
