Creating Confidence

Nov 11, 2019

 

 Most people think self-confidence comes from being innately good at something, but that’s far from true.  Confidence isn't something that you have or you don't have.  It isn't something that’s passed down through your family DNA or achieved with your magna cum laude. Confidence isn’t achieved through raw talent or knowing how to do something well. 

Confidence is something that you CREATE with your MIND.  It’s an emotion. A feeling. A vibration that rises up from deep within and when you harness that power, it feels pretty darn good.  

It comes from your willingness to welcome, acknowledge and experience emotions that can be uncomfortable or perhaps “negative” as they’re more commonly referred too. 

Think about it. Embarrassment, humiliation, judgment, defeat or failure are all feelings that we work tirelessly to avoid. Yet if we’re open to experiencing these uncomfortable emotions, we can overcome them and find freedom in conquering something we didn’t realize we had the innate confidence to handle. The even greater thing is, creating confidence just breeds more confidence.   

By allowing ourselves to experience uncomfortable emotions, we’re actively working on strengthening our confidence muscle. So, what are you avoiding because you’re afraid of feeling judged, embarrassed or vulnerable?   

I challenge you to go out and strengthen your confidence muscle by intentionally doing something that makes you feel some of those uncomfortable emotions. Take note of what it feels like to experience the vibrations of uncomfortable emotions as well as the vibrations you feel once you’ve overcome the challenge. Start small and repeat this practice often. Before you know it, you’ll have created and harnessed the power of confidence from within.  

That’s it for today’s #ReLTalk. 

P.S. - what anyone else thinks about you and your behavior is none of their business. What you think of yourself is!  Be gentle with yourself as the web of confusion is lifted and you become even clearer on how to get what you want for your life. It will require you to know and practice the things I teach on this blog but you can do it! You’ve got this and I’ve got you! 

 

SEEKING SUPPORT FOR YOURSELF OR YOUR TEAM?

HERE ARE TWO OPPORTUNITIES

Consider hiring me to create a workshop or custom coaching engagement to help your team, leadership team connect to their unique best self.  The outcome is discovering their confidence, energy, and focus.  After two decades of working in the corporate arena, I still find most of us do not know how to structure a lifestyle that supports our goals and dreams.  To reach those we must learn to be our best.  Bring our best work and attitude.  We have to take personal responsibility for who we are and how we choose to show up in life both business and personal.  Inspiring others to connect to this part of themselves and turn it into action is my magic.  I’d love to discuss how I can support your LEADERS.  Learn more here.

 

Could you use time and space to focus on yourself?  How about accountability to follow through on that desire? The CHOOSE YOU! Virtual women’s circle is created for just this purpose.  The desire to take better care of the inner self was present in my life, however everything else seemed to take priority until I discovered the practices that I share through CHOOSE YOU!  We meet 2x a month in the evening.  Want to join us?  Email [email protected] with the subject: “Tell Me More! Choose You group” and I’ll reach out to let you know when our next gathering is scheduled.  Learn More
