66: The Search for Confidence


Listen Later

The quest for more confidence is one of phenomena that brings so many people to coaching.

Most of us want more of it and think other people must be doing something differently than we are to have the belief in themselves that allows them to go for what they want...

So where do we find confidence for ourselves?

Eric and Nayla dive in to talk through what confidence is and isn't, how it helps us, and how to build more of it.

Confidence is not a point at which we arrive, a thing we ultimately achieve.

Rather, it is a muscle we have to exercise regularly, a set of practices we have to engage in to develop courage and belief in ourselves in increments. The search for confidence requires an honest look within, a record of our achievements and a plan to close the gaps we have.

Building confidence is within our reach with consistent effort. Let's talk about it this week on Inside Job.

Inside Job is brought to you by Nayla Bahri and Eric Johnson.
