Periodically I close my eyes and go back to a specific time when I was feeling very, very confident -- I have a few great ones -- and really feel it, vividly, powerfully, so that I can totally feel confidence in every part of my body. I've got an anchor that I add to (pinching my right ear lobe; don't tell anyone!
) so just firing off the anchor works. But I still love to go to my "special" moments and re-experience them, just because it's fun.
I also sometimes use the "ring of fire" anchor -- a ring that lives (invisibly) on my finger, and can be snapped down onto the floor. Just stepping into the ring of fire blasts confidence, among other enjoyable presentation states, right up through me.
