There are going to be a lot of things that make you want to keep your head down. You might be starting a business and friends and family are not being supportive. You might want to go on a solo vacation to explore the world and get a different perspective for yourself and your family is telling you not to go. You might feel left out at a social event. 

The worst thing you can do in situations like these is to back down and compromise who you are as a person. So continue to hold your head up and high and look the world right in the eye like Helen Keller says. If you act more confident, you will be more confident.
