“Choosing to believe in you, that is always an option. Choosing to believe that whatever you want in this one and only life of yours is possible, that is a choice available to you all the time,” shares host and teen confidence coach Leslie Randolph. If you have been feeling stuck and unable to make the changes you want to your life, the most important thing to remember is that your thoughts are optional. You can choose to believe or not believe whatever your mind is telling you. The default mode of the inner teen inside your head will always say whatever it thinks will keep you safe and keep you within your comfort zone. In order to change your life, you need to challenge that default voice and change your mindset to believing that what you want for yourself is actually possible.
Mindfulness is not just a buzzword. By learning to be mindful of your thoughts, you can change your life. Leslie explains that thoughts are like a roadmap and that the more you believe and focus your attention on certain thoughts, the more likely those thoughts will be the outcome you find. If you want to change the outcome, you need to change the thoughts themselves. Instead of telling yourself that what you want for your life is impossible, start challenging that inner teen and telling her that it is possible. You can always choose to believe in yourself, because your mindset is a choice determined by the thoughts you allow.
Do you want to increase your self-confidence and make real, impactful changes to your life? You can have the life you have always wanted, all you have to do is challenge your inner teen and change your mindset.
