If there’s one thing people ask me about the MOST, it’s confidence. Old people, young people, rich people, poor people.. heck, even the husband of a reigning beauty queen asked me to consult his wife on her confidence issues. I am the unofficial advisor for confidence around the world!
The truth is.. I don’t know how I am as confident as I am. In fact, I look back on my life’s work and often wonder myself why in GOD’s name did I wear that or look like that and STILL have the confidence to get up and roar like a total boss like that.
Inside of me is a wealth of assurance of who I am and why I was put on this Earth. I believe it’s in you too. Sometimes the things that get in the way are our fears, our own self-judgement or concern of what others will think. Maybe it’s the glass ceiling that seems lower for some than others. Attitude is everything.
The empowerment section of this blog is a series of topics that all relate to confidence in one form or another. Pour yourself a cup of coffee and have fun!
10 Tips for Confidence
- You get to decide WHO you are in the world.
- You can change WHO you are at any time too.
- Success breeds success. Your confidence will grow as you consistently build WHO you are and meet challenges.
- You can’t make everyone happy. Even Mr. Rogers had haters, trust me.
- If you’re thinking it, others are too. So don’t be scared to say it.
- Dress the part. How you present yourself VERY important.
- When nervous, focus your attention on others.
- Ask questions. Ask a LOT of questions. Ask questions to everyone including your partner, your boss, your friends, your enemies, and complete strangers. It’s hard to feel lost when everyone is giving you clues.
- Trust your gut. (Unless you can’t tell the difference between your gut and your fears. Then, don’t listen to it. Follow the path you’ve decided on.)
- Figure out your mission. It can have several facets, but it can’t be at odds with itself or you’re obviously going nowhere.
