What i did may be different than what you may want or do. What i did was this:
I became more in tune with myself and tried to really understand myself and relax before i could get ready rebuilding my life. You can't just keep the cracked foundation and reconstruct the building on top of that...you have to do it from the ground up. So i started meditating, tried to even out my life and sort it out like laundry-kept the good friends and good things about my life and dropped the friends that weren't the best for me and got rid of all negativity. If someone was bringing drama or negativity i didn't want it. I expelled the bad and tried to rebuild and add on that 'good'.
So like i said, i meditated, i started listening to relaxing music, i read buddhist quotes and Confucius quotes, started reading a book called 'The Secret' and watched the movie, and started doing things that would improve my life.
I found myself, and in turn my confidence came with it.

Been there.
We all have. =]
Rather your talking about your personality or your looks, don`t try to change yourself to please other people. Maybe take a day off to just have a you-day? Go the mall & go shopping, go to the spa & get a facial/massage, go get your nails done, etc. I guarentee this -- it can make ANYONE feel better. =]
Try to begin every day by thinking of one thing that you really, really like about yourself rather it has to do with your hair, your ability to make others smile, your compassion for others, or that you make a great pot of chicken and dumplings. Haha, as you do this every day & discover things about yourself that you like, you`ll begin to feel a whole lot better about yourself, & your self esteem level will rise. & before you know it, you`ll find that you actually not only like yourself, but you love yourself too. Enlist the help of those that love you to help build your self confidence. Those that know you best and care for you are the ones that can help you see how special you truly are. Remember that someone who really knows you has most likely seen you at your worst & they didn`t leave, did they? These are the ones that can truely help you to build your self esteem.
Good luck!

well, basically be positive.
focus on the positive.
for personality you can pick a role model and choose characteristics that you would like to improve and work on it.
for looks and stuff, focus on the positive and enhance it by wearing thing that show it off or makeup that intensifies it.
you asked a really general question, so that's really all i can say.

I know it seems like I should put more, but that link is really helpful, and I don't think I could find another one that says something that it doesn't have already. Good luck! : )
