Insecurity and fear, are symptoms of having low self-confidence.  What if I ask how confident are you?  I am sure I would get different answers because each person is unique.

[Show Notes]

We all desire to be courageous and operate with high self-confidence, however sometimes we find ourselves in a space where low self-esteem, fear, insecurities and negative self-talk lurks. This space has one intention, to destabilize, neutralize and prevent you from pursuing your dreams. But you can take your life and self-confidence to a whole new level.

Today on the Avril Riley podcast, my guest Prince Khan, Entrepreneur, Business Advisor and Business Associate from Brampton Entrepreneur Centre is no stranger to lacking self-confidence and struggles with anxiety.  However, he emerged from this negative space to become a top speaker and business advisor.

Listen as Prince share his story and strategies to boost your self-confidence, as we discuss the topic "Boosting Your Self Confidence"

Studies have shown a high level of self-confidence will:

Have a positive effect on your mental health

Boost your motivation and energy to take actions

Foster a sense of happiness and help you to cope with the challenges life throws at you

[Avril's Advice]

Watch Your Posture: sit and stand in a posture that conveys confidence. Shoulders back, chin up and a smile on your face, will take your confidence right up the scale

Give Yourself Permission to Make Mistakes and Embrace the Flow of Life: This is how Big Dreams Happen. Silence the inner critics that will tell you, you should not, could not, cannot and ask the inner critic why not? If you fail, failure is a stepping stone to success

Be Kind to Yourself: Too many times we are harsh on ourselves. It takes time to build up your confidence so be kind, compassionate and love yourself. The most important relationship after your relationship with God, is the relationship you have with yourself. Love yourself.

Build up your Self-Awareness: Soldiers do not go into battle without studying the enemy, know their moves and hideout. They gather intelligence to win the battle. Get to know yourself. Know the limitations you place on yourself, become aware of negative self talks and develop strategies to counter them

[Prince Khan final advice to all the listeners]

Walt Disney said "Somehow, I cannot believe that there are any heights that cannot be scaled by a man who knows the secrets of making dreams come true. This special secret to me is summarized in 4Cs; Courage, Confidence, Curiosity and Constancy. When you believe in a thing believe it all the way, implicitly and unquestionable."
