关于自信的英语演讲稿

Good morning,everyone! I`m very happy to have this chance to give my presentation. Before I start my speech, please let me ask you a question. Do you think you are confident in yourself? If you are, do please raise your hand.

大家早上好！很高兴有这个机会来做我的演讲。在我开始演讲之前，请允许我问你一个问题。你认为你对自己有信心吗？如果你是，请举起你的手。

My topic today is “ to Be a Confident Person.”

今天我演讲的题目是：做一个自信的人。

What is confidence? Confidence is to trust yourself. Confidence is to look upon yourself. It is not to indulge¹ in self-admiration. It is not to get extremely arrogant². It is not to get dizzy with success or to be opinionated. It is just to inspire yourself ahead of a quality of mind, in high spirit, full of energy. It is to meet the challenges of life in a positive mood. It is to overcome your inferiority, farewell, to get rid of the trouble of a a ready-made panacea³.

什么是自信?自信，就是自己信得过自己，自己看得起自己。它，不是孤芳自赏，也不是夜郎自大，更不是得意忘形和自以为是;而是激励自己奋发进取的一种心里素质，是以高昂的斗志，充沛的干劲迎接生活挑战的一种乐观情绪;是战胜自己，告别自卑，摆脱烦恼的一种灵丹妙药。

Remember, I have just entered junior high school. In the face of the challenge of new environment, in the face of so many new courses and learning contents, I lost faith in my own and gradually developed a psychological sense of inferiority. Achievement glided⁴ ceaselessly. It is a teacher and mother who encouraged me and let me regain⁵ confidence. Gradually, my grades got higher and higher and everything began to go on well. Gradually I adapted to the life in middle school.

还记得，我刚刚升入初中时，面对新的环境，面对那么多的新的课程和学习内容，我对自己失去了信心，逐渐产生了自卑心理，成绩不断下滑，是老师和妈妈及时帮助我、鼓励我，让我重新找回自信。渐渐的，我的学习成绩及各个方面都有明显进步，逐渐适应了初中的生活。

Friends, let's say goodbye to inferiority. Let's be a confident person. Because: only if you have self-confidence, can you control yourself; only if you have confidence, can you achieve success and create your a brilliant life of your own!

朋友们，让我们告别自卑，做一个自信的人吧。因为：只有拥有自信，才能拥有自我;只有拥有自信，才能走向成功，才能创造自己辉煌的人生。
