How To *Finally* Train For Confidence And Reach Your Goals
You are (way) better than you think
It is funny how the biggest goals require the most boring routines.
Want to become a triathlete? Train every day. Eat well. Get rest.
Want to become a best-selling author? Write 80,000 words.
That is 220 words a day. Only.
Yet, how easy is it to do those simple things?
Most people we admire know that they need to pay their dues and put in the work to see the results. They don’t have it all figured out.
Even if it seems that way, they aren’t confident either. They question their beliefs and second-guess if they’re on the right track as much as you and I.
The only “secret sauce” they have mastered is to train for confidence.
You’re Never Ready
I was terrified of speaking in public.
Ever since I was in high school, until I was in a 75-student hall in B-school, my ears went hot and my palms got sweaty when I needed to speak up.
I took notes and paid so much attention in class that often I caught a mistake or found a page or paragraph the professor skipped.
Fast-forward to 2024, I have been a guest speaker on over 10 podcasts. I have given live webinars in front of 250+ attendees and I am about to speak at a conference with double or triple that number.
None of this would have been possible if I was “waiting to get ready”.
The only way to get here was to go through the hard bit of training.
Training for the confidence to pitch to be a guest on podcasts. Training to calm my mind before big speaking events. Training to close out self-sabotaging thoughts. Training to get better. Training to love myself.
Training to do stuff even if I wasn’t feeling “fully ready”!
Life Is Full Of Corrective Experiences
We have this one life. And that is all.
There is power in transforming your view of life and going from a victim to a winner mindset — from a thinker to a doer…
