EP17: Recognize Who & What Boosts Your Self-Confidence
Confidence is so important in our lives; it roots us to believe in ourselves and take chances. We start today with three very thought-provoking questions to determine which people and activities in your life boost your confidence, what the reactions are around you when you try something new, who in your life supports you and gives you strength, and what makes you feel stronger and more confident and allows you to get past your limiting beliefs. So, embrace your childlike intuition to evaluate the people and the activities that build your confidence, strength, and muscle memory. You will not know what’s possible for you until you try; you might surprise yourself most of all.
