Three Simple Steps to Build Self Confidence – Part One

Thank you for visiting again! Sign up for my RSS feed. Thanks for visiting!

I’ve often found with clients over the years that one of the main things holding them back from building a successful business and life is that they don’t have confidence and belief in themselves.  Having self confidence about your ability to achieve what you want in life gives you the motivation you need to take the action to get to your ultimate goals.

Below you will find the first, of three, simple exercises you can use each day to strengthen your inner confidence.

Step One. Start a journal that contains three sections; Journaling, Success and Having Gratitude.

It may seem very simple and perhaps even to some a little woo woo, however it has been well researched and proven that writing things down helps to achieve what you want in life.

a.  Daily happenings. Writing is a fantastic way to get rid of feelings and thoughts that don’t serve you well.   You can write a few lines or a few pages depending on what you choose to do about what each day brings.    Also, anytime you are worried about something whether it’s in business or life take out a plain piece of white paper and write the worry down.  That gets it out of your head.  At the end of the day take the sheet of paper whether it has one line or more and either shred it or tear it up.

b. Your Daily Successes. Most people don’t even realize that they have many successes during a day.  A success is anything, whether big or small that is an action.   For example: If my blog is ready on time that’s a success. If I take a walk during the day that’s a success. It can be personal or professional.  By putting your daily success actions into a journal, over time it allows you to see what you really do achieve each day.  It could be two to three actions you took that day to take you nearer to your goals.

I like to take a look at the end of each week to see how much I actually achieved that week. As you look back on your entries of positive accomplishments, it will give you motivation to achieve even more.

c.  Having gratitude for what you have, not for what you don’t have.  Write 3-5 things each day that you are really grateful for in life.  You will be amazed at what happens when you continue to do this and how much it changes your thinking to be really positive.

Many Blessings,
Hazel
