Confidence is a tool for achieving big goals and stepping into greatness. Confidence is more than an ability, it is a belief and it is perfectly shaped by life experiences, your success, failures and disappointments.
Confidence can be mastered especially after asking yourself a series of questions that was birthed as a result of your failures and disappointments. You can sure that obstacles will happen in your journey of life, in your journey to greatness, therefore maintaining a high level of confidence is required.
Here are five steps to help you become confident in life.
1. Believe in Yourself
It starts with you, so you must give all it takes. Make the choice of believing in yourself and get the right mindset to help you through your journey.
It’s your responsibility to take charge of your beliefs. You must choose to believe that you can do anything you set your mind to.
2. Be Intentional
You must be intentional in your choices and actions. Be intentional about your goals, make no mistake of doing things that don’t matter. Always be deliberat and objevtive about you and the way you live your life.
3. Ignore what others think of you
What others think or say about you is completely irrelevant.Stop worrying about what people are saying or what people are going to say. Instead of wasting all the time worrying about what other people think about your ideas, your goals, your clothes, your hair, and your home, focus on doing the things that will actually get you closer to achieving your goals.
4. Identify Your Weakness and Challenge Yourself
Identify your weakness and ask for help from those who are competent enough to help you. Set new challenge, new goals, it could be a challenge to speak publicly, or a challenge to express yourself in a new way. By challenging yourself, you’re providing rooms for growth.
5. Visualise a Confident Version of Yourself and Keep Working towards it
It is okay to admire confident people, but it is more significant when you visualise you’re the confident one and work towards achieving the result. Imagine how you’d behave when given a role to play, imagine you are sharing information with people, how would you deliver? Visualising all these, keep yourself grounded. Self-confidence is extremely important in almost every aspect of our lives, and people who lack it can find it difficult to become successful.
That’s a great piece.
