Many people ask me what?s the single most important component in one?s life success? My answer is undoubtedly always a resounding ?SELF CONFIDENCE.? I know I know, that?s so cliche you say! But sorry folks, it?s the truth. No doubt about it, self confidence is a massive factor in anyone?s success personally and professionally and otherwise.
Why you ask? Great question young grasshoppa. Self Confidence is that magic fairy dust that David sprinkled on himself before being crazy enough to take on Goliath and win. It is essentially the fuel behind any major or worthwhile feat accomplished. Would you consider that to be important? I would, so let me give you five tips on how to harness your inner Goliath slayer.
5 tips on how to raise your self confidence:
Love yourself- Many people compare themselves to others, and criticize themselves. STOP. There is only ONE you on the planet. And there will only ever be one you. Learn to love you =) It will make your journey between you and yourself much more pleasant for years to come. Learning to love yourself is the most important component of self confidence. Once you love and accept yourself, you can get on with being more of who you truly are, and shine bright instead of fighting against yourself and swimming upstream. So love on loverbuns.
Choose your friends wisely ? Be aware of how you feel after you spend time with different people in your life. After you leave your friends house do you feel happier and more confident? Or depleted and drained? This is one of the most helpful indicators of whether the company you keep supports you in having a high self confidence or not.
Follow Your Heart ? Let go of the ?I should do this? or the ?This is what I?m supposed to do? type thoughts. Forget what everyone expects of you and do what you feel is right for you. Sometimes your family and friends put you in a box that you never agreed to being in in the first place. They mean well but sometimes they don?t see your true potential because it is outside of the parameters of their own box, so they are blind do it. You are the captain of your ship, so go where you?re meant to go Captain.
Set Realistic Goals ? Everyone wants to achieve something which is great! I always tell clients to dream big, but then coach then to achieve small steps toward a desired end rather than shooting for the stars and coming up short. The latter can severely deplete your energy levels and self confidence which mean everything in your motivation levels. So set a SMART goal, and move yourself toward it. Progress creates momentum, and momentum creates self confidence to fuel you the rest of the way.
Take care of yourself ? Personal time, and attention to your inner world is extremely important in maintaining a grounded perspective that lends to confidence. So take a walk, meditate, do some yoga and remind yourself that you matter.
And that concludes this segment on having a kick butt level of self confidence in life. I hope you love yourself, and anyone who doesn?t love you?I give you full permission to tell them to bug off. You deserve it honey cakes, you rock.
