E31 [Success Habit #7] Confidence Reimagined: Overcoming Self-Limiting Beliefs


Listen Later

Ready to break free from the patterns holding you back and unlock a deeper, unshakable confidence? This episode dives into the idea of being “perfectly imperfect” and how thriving doesn’t come from flawless programming, but from reconnecting with your true nature.

What’s at stake here is our ability to surpass old conditioning that keeps us stuck—conditioning picked up since childhood and reinforced over years.

These subconscious patterns can impact everything from how we approach goals to how we build relationships and businesses. Understanding and shifting this programming is critical for developing real, sustainable confidence.

What You Need to Know

  • We’re all born with a perfect nature: naturally curious, loving, and goal-striving.
  • Programming from our environment (like “don’t talk to strangers” or “curiosity killed the cat”) can install self-limiting beliefs that contradict our innate selves.
  • Many habits and beliefs that run on autopilot are not supporting your growth—they’re leftovers from well-meaning but limiting life lessons.
  • Recognition of this gap between nature and programming is the starting point for genuine self-trust and confidence.

What You Need to Do

  • Slow down and become deeply aware of your daily habits—especially the ones you never question, like which shoe you put on first or how you tie your shoes.
  • Observe and experiment by making small changes: switch the order, change patterns, or alter your routine. Notice how uncomfortable this is, and use that discomfort to discover your automatic programming.
  • Journal or reflect on where these patterns originated, whether they came from family traditions, teachers, or early influences.
  • Conduct a two-week experiment: intentionally shift your actions and observe your thoughts and feelings. The goal isn’t to live uncomfortably, but to create a space for new awareness and growth.

Your Next Step

Pick one simple habit you do on autopilot and change it today. Maybe it’s the side of the bed you sleep on or the order you get dressed. As you do this, pause and notice what comes up emotionally and mentally.

Bring this new awareness into your daily practice—confidence grows one conscious choice at a time. Grow with us as you rewire confidence from the inside out.
