About the Book. In How to Be Confident, James Smith tackles one of the most requested topics from his huge online following: how do you actually become confident, rather than just pretending to be? Drawing on his candid style, Smith argues modern life traps us in cycles of negativity — social media comparison, decision paralysis, and a chase for external validation that never delivers genuine happiness. Instead of vague affirmations, this book offers a practical framework for identifying your true ambitions, recognising your real strengths, and taking concrete steps to build the life you actually want.. The book cemented Smith's reputation as one of the UK's most trusted voices in personal development, hitting number one in the Sunday Times bestseller charts. It follows previous number one bestsellers, with Not a Diet Book topping the charts in January 2020 and Not a Life Coach in September 2021. Combining humour, tough love, and lived experience, Smith writes directly and honestly, without the fluff, giving actionable tools rather than empty platitudes.. Written by a two-time Sunday Times number one bestselling author. Practical, no-nonsense strategies rather than vague motivational advice. Tackles modern confidence-killers like social media comparison and decision paralysis. Brand new paperback copy, perfect for gifting or personal reading. Ideal for fans of self-help, mindset, and personal development books. Follows on from Smith's bestselling titles Not a Diet Book and Not a Life Coac
