Memorable Quotes

“When you can master the elements of emotional and social intelligence it’s a game changer in your life and in your success…it gives you the “It” factor so you can be seen and be relevant.”

“83% of those asked stated their #1 challenge is self-confidence. 59% of those are leaders and C-Suite executives.”

“Self-confidence impacts are ability to communicate.”

“Failure is not about a loss of identity. It’s actually helping us get closer because you’re gaining more research on what works and what doesn’t.”

“Confidence crushers are imposter syndrome, perfectionist mindset, the inability to create healthy boundaries because of people-pleasing, and a lack of feeling enough (“enough-ism”)”.

“When men struggle with self-confidence they become more assertive…women lose their ability to take action.”

Here are the 3 Takeaways:

• The four pillars Nada talked about were: self-confidence, emotional intelligence, transformational leadership (vs. transactional leadership), and influential communication. These are the things we need to have a thriving life. These are skills we need to have a life that is thriving.
   
• The four branches of Emotional Intelligence are: self-awareness, self- management, social awareness, and relationship management. There are aspects to each of these that solve every single challenge we deal with as it relates to people. All of these make up emotional and social intelligence.
  
• Self-confidence can undermine our success and research says it doesn’t matter what level or country – this is a challenge we all have. We’ve been taught to have confidence in the thing and change is inevitable. Confidence in the self is about self-belief in oneself and when things fall apart, you know how to build.
