If you want to be more confident, read this:
The most paralyzing misbelief about boosting your confidence is that you have to completely reinvent yourself.
That is so wrong. I'll show you that essentially it's about a few small changes.
1. The trick to build confidence really fast:
Don't wait until you're ready. Try it as you are now.
90% of people wait for something inside of them to change until they feel fully confident to take action.
The other 10% kicks ass on a daily basis.
2. There's no 100% confident.
Are you waiting for this magical day where you'll feel 100% confident to do it?
If you believe that there will be a day where you have summoned up max. confidence, you'll be stuck forever.
Only chance you ever have is to start unready.
3. The magic of doing.
The problem is that your confidence can not increase until you do the thing you are avoiding.
No matter how long you wait you will still feel unready and uncomfortable.
At some point you'll have to force yourself to take action even when you are scared.
4. The Action First Approach
Confidence doesn't accumulate itself quietly in the background.
You have to prioritize action over readiness.
Don't aim to be confident & ready.
Aim to be a doer & maker.
Taking action before you feel ready will change your life.
5. Fuck Prerequisites
Low confidence is this sentence:
I can't try to do X because I lack Y.
High confidence is this sentence
I can try to do X. Period.
The difference is the prerequisite, the thing you think you need to do X.
You'll never get X but you can do without.
6. Remember the hard work.
If you don't remember the work you put in you'll feel like an imposter.
You only had luck and made everything up on the way and someday everybody will find out.
But imposters don't do the work. You put in thousands of hours. Remember this.
7. Victory List
Make a list of all the victories, accomplishments, successes, compliments people paid you.
You have to see them.
Would an imposter rack up all of those on a regular basis?
Pat yourself on the shoulder from time to time and keep this victory list handy.
8. Cost List
What would you do in life if you had the confidence to do it?
In other words what are you missing out on? Make a list.
At the moment you keep yourself from what you want because of a series of uncomfortable moments in your past.
Is this still worth it?
9. Remember these 3 things.
(1)
Don't wait until you're ready. Try it as you are now. There's no 100% confident.
(2)
Don't aim to be confident & ready.
Aim to be a doer & maker.
(3) Remember the hard work and victories. You are not an imposter.
10. Success guaranteed.
I guarantee you if you aim to be a doer and maker instead of being perfectly confident you will build self-esteem amazingly fast.
And as an imperfect but more and more confident doer you will outperform any perfectionist on this planet.
