Greetings and welcome to the Real Estate Entrepreneur Podcast, I am your host Peter Lorimer, former hit record producer, now host of the show Stay Here on Netflix and owner LA’s most creative boutique real estate firm, PLG Estates. Confidence is an art. Which is good news, because if you're not innately confident, don't worry. There are strategies for this.

Confidence is an art. Which is good news, because if you're not innately confident, don't worry. There are strategies for this.

Lack of confidence typically comes down to two things: Fear of what others think and ego. And we can even simplify that further into this: lack of confidence is rooted in fear.

A simple way to gain confidence is to educate yourself. Maybe you don't know enough. Don't wait for someone to teach you. Anything you could possibly want to learn is on YouTube.

Confidence leads to action and action leads to success.

The what-ifs, the second-guessing... those things are the dream, ambition, and career killers.

And they all lead to vanilla decisions.

Whenever I need to make a decision that has multiple choices, I get quiet, and ask myself, which way should I go? I've found that the right answer is always the first and quietest.

I struggle with the same demons as everyone else. I just don't listen to them anymore.

...And I just believe I have a shot. And so should you.

Listen to this week's podcast and get fired up!

Golden Nuggets from this episode:

[03:14] “Fear is the most toxic thing known to man, if fear heeds his hands on the wheel, in my case it always goes wrong.”

[04:38] “You can’t really act if you’re not confident.”

[05:00] “Confidence leads to action, and action leads to success.”

[05:15] “The most toxic vacillation is second-guessing.”

[07:16] “I listen to that first little quiet voice, with I believe it is my intuition, whenever I listen to that voice I never go wrong when I listen to the debating society I always seem to make a mistake.”

[07:42] “Confidence is the difference between thinking about something and doing something.”

[13:15] “Bad ideas ultimately lead to good ones.”

Thanks for being here,

❤️ Pete
