What is confidence and where does it come from? - EP1

EP1 - What is confidence and where does it come from?

Confidence requires the willingness to test and fail.

This is the skill part. Skills are honed and sharpened by practice. Practice requires action. Action requires willingness. Notice I didn’t say Ability. You have to be able to “do it anyway” even when you are scared or nervous. Each time you exercise this muscle you will build more confidence. Even if you fail, you get feedback or learn something. This learning and feedback moves you forward and helps you create belief. That belief becomes confidence.

Confidence can be borrowed.

When confidence is low, it is possible to borrow confidence for a short time. You might call this motivation instead of confidence. However, it can help you build your confidence when you don’t have it.

Borrowing confidence might be calling a friend who always believes in you, going to a Tony Robbins training, or listening to The Crazy Confidence Coach podcast on confidence! These activities will give you a short term boost and maybe just enough energy to build a skill that will be more sustainable. You cannot become confident on borrowed confidence alone. You can’t just post affirmations around the house and read them without action and expect to be more confident.

You have to be willing to work on mindset by managing your mind.

You have to be willing to take action and fail. 

Imagine having deeper connections, feeling less anxiety and overwhelm, gaining clarity, and fully trusting yourself.

Picture yourself not just surviving, but truly thriving.

It’s time to take the first step towards a fulfilling and joyful life.
