Daily Leader Tip: Crediting your Belief System Bank

Confidence comes from having a feeling of belief in yourself and what you are doing.

Picture your internal belief system as a bank.

You’re either crediting it with wins, learning new things or hanging out with people who are rooting for you.

Or you’re withdrawing from it by negative self-talk, being fixed minded or hanging out with people who are slowing you down and slow-boiling you to average.

What can I do to build more belief and confidence in myself?

1/ Daily task - do something every day that is stretching. Something that gets you uncomfortable. Whether it’s a 5k run, having a difficult conversation with someone or doing something you keep putting off. Just do it.

2/ Circle of influence - go hang out with experienced, inspiring and confident people. Find people who are where you want to be. What are they doing? How do they think? They help you level up.

3/ Speak up - whether it’s in a meeting or a large group. Share your opinion. Speak up. Say something. Be noticed. Add value to the group.

4/ Fail quickly - if you suck at something, that’s okay. Failure and mistakes are part of the process. You have to embrace the suck at times and be willing to get things wrong. The most important thing is you’re learning and evaluating your actions so you’re constantly growing and improving.
