You forget to focus on the goals you set when you first started out in business.

“Obstacles are those frightful things you see when you take your eyes off your goal”

- Henry Ford

Confidence is easily lost on a business journey because of all the moving parts of running a business.

Confidence is an inner liking of YOURSELF.

The more you like yourself, the more confident you become.

The more confident you are, the better decisions you make.

“The speed of success that you will have in business is directly related to the speed in which you are able to make decisions”

The truth is, you start acting very defensively when you lack confidence;

You stop taking risks;

You stop taking the steps that need to be taken to help you succeed in business and in life.

“We need to spend more time un-learning before we learn”

Un-learn all the negative drama from parents, teachers and peers.

Re-wire your brains to the positive.

How can you do this?...

Here are 3 ways to effectively un-learn the negative and learn the positive:

1. Be kind to yourself

• Treat yourself extremely well.

“It’s what you say to yourself, when you are by yourself, and about yourself that matters most”

1. Bring more awareness to your thoughts

• You are just a manifestation of your thinking.

“Gratitude fuels self-esteem and confidence”

1. Implement a morning routine

• Commit to doing this daily.

“Just one small positive thought in the morning can change your whole day” - Dalia Lama

Finally…

Maintain a strong confidence in yourself or you’ll end up as a victim to the external circumstances that can influence your beliefs.

Invest in your own self-confidence and assure yourself that there will be a return on that investment.

You will see amazing things happen.

What's stopping you from deciding to be a confident person right now?

“With confidence, you have won before you started”
