There are a few techniques I know of:
A) Hypnosis - People have used this to improve their lives in a myriad of ways, including being more confident. One of the best methods around. With all the bad media coverage and stuff, many people are scared away. For those who are scared, there is self-hypnosis so that one never has to be worried about someone else controlling them, although really a hypnotist would have a hard time getting you to do something you wouldn't want to do. Self-hypnosis works just as good as heterohypnosis (another person hypnotizes you) but some people need someone's active help to attain the hypnotic state.
B) NLP anchoring technique - A highly practical technique presented in seduction literature. Basically, you really try to think and get into a moment in the past that made you feel on top of the world. Maybe you won a science fair, you got your black belt or whatever. You can even make it up. Still, nevertheless, when you're at the height of recreating the experience, you tap your two fingers together for example. Or as Michael Pilinski (http://www.highstatusmale.com) suggested, use a small rubber band and snap it on your wrist. Do this on a daily basis for several weeks and soon you'll have a tool to use when you need a boost of confidence and happiness right then and there.
C) Fake it till you make it - Basically even if you don't feel good that day, carry yourself like the Prince that Pook describes, or you can even carry yourself like bruce willis in one of his movies, or as someone who just won a major award, etc. I chose to carry myself like someone starting his country. Not pompous, arrogant or anything, just calm, happy, self-assured and relaxed. Greatly changed the way people communicated with me.
D) Face rejection head on - I wish I had the URL to this guy's article. Anyway, this guy was 17 when he became a university freshman. He was very painfully shy and his hormones were raging. Anyway, he gave his buddy $60 and told him not to give it back till he got 10 rejections. Yes I'm not kidding here. On his first attempt, he was so nervous and sweat was pouring down his head. While talking to the girl, he was in such a state that he looked epileptic and she was worried she'd have to call somebody. He said he was ok and tried asking her out on a date. She said she was really flattered but already had a bf. So he put that down as his first rejection. Mission accomplished.
He went on to ask more girls to date and kept getting rejected. By the 7th time, the girl didn't reject him and he could hardly believe his ears. He asked her to repeat it again and she confirmed it. From then on he couldn't get anymore rejections so he'd start acting like a jerk to get his 10th rejection and he got his $60 back. He'd acquired such a calm, happy and relaxed demeanor that he no longer had trouble attracting women anymore!
E) Svengali challenge - Presented by an alt.seduction.fast user named Svengali. It's hella simple. Wherever you go, smile and say hi to all the women you run across. Old, young, pretty, anybody. Not the last step in becoming successful with women, but a major first step.
That's about all I can think of guys.
