QUOTES ON AMPING UP LIFE:
Accept yourself, your strengths, your weaknesses, your truths, and know what tools you have to fulfill your purpose. –Steve Maraboli

Strength does not come from winning. Your struggles develop your strengths. When you go through hardships and decide not to surrender, that is strength. –Arnold Schwarzenegger
WHERE TO START:
To Know Your Strengths, Look to Your Struggles

I next-leveled my strengths about ten years ago when I stopped trying to be good at everything and listened to the mentors in my life who told me what they saw in me that was strong and unique. For me, my strengths are focused-energy, massive-action-taking, and authentic enthusiasm for life … the more I was encouraged to just be me, the more I was able to level up my strengths.

What struggles have strengthened you?

What are your top three personal strengths?

What are your top three weaknesses?

Channel Your Power

Know your strengths

Create an inner alter-ego to channel

Repeat truth to yourself

Don’t let false humility keep you from shining

Never apologize for your strengths

Resist the temptation to assume everyone has the same strengths as you – that what you have is “no big deal” … it is a big deal!

LEVELING UP YOUR DREAMS AND CHARACTER
It’s not possible to “level up” your dreams without first leveling up your character, but to level up your character, you have to first know what matters most to you and then to use that information as a compass for how you live life and how you pursue your dream life.

What five character traits matter most to you?!

Mine are:

Love, Kindness, Generosity, Truth, Congruency

Share them – let’s talk about them!

What does next-leveling your dream look like?

Seriously. Let’s talk, next-level (1) dream and (2) dream life.

WHAT ARE FOUNDATIONAL HABITS?
Foundational habits are the framework habits that lay the cornerstone of your subconscious existence. Over 80% of what we do on a day to day basis is done on autopilot, so those who live with great confidence simply do so because they have established auto-piloted habits that promote and sustain confidence. You can do the same.
WHAT IS CONFIDENCE AND WHY FOCUS SO INTENTLY ON LEVERAGING IT IN YOUR LIFE?
Confidence is the courage to show up as your full self each and every day and to live life to the fullest.
THE HABIT OF TRAINING YOUR MIND AND REWRITING YOUR THOUGHTS
It’s a process, a daily activity you engage in throughout the day.

Identify which thoughts serve you and which ones don’t.

Know that you have the power of choice and thought.

Believe that you are growing each day more into your best self

Habits of mantras, journaling, speaking truth out-loud, being generous with your words of life and encouragement – the habit of taking time to think about something before letting it become real
THE HABIT OF BEING RELENTLESSLY OPTIMISTIC
Relentless positivity is a belief system.

Believe that your best is yet to come – look forward to each year and each season.

Free yourself from living in the past or being fearful of the future

Establish a baseline of self-efficacy and confidence about the challenges that inevitably lie ahead and know that you will be strong and capable enough to handle them.
THE HABIT OF BEING AN ACTION TAKER
Cultivate consistent action to prevent yourself from analysis by paralysis, from procrastination or from playing small in life.

Take action for yourself AND take action for others.

Action begets more action and sets things off … you will see more results and therein benefit with a wave of natural confidence that will take over and move you forward even further.

WHAT MATTERS MOST
PODCAST #230
In this episode of Confidence on The Go, we’re chatting about:

* How to stay focused on what matters the most
* How to know what matters the most
* How to leverage what matters to make it work better for you in all areas of life

HOW TO KNOW WHAT MATTERS:

* Know your values
* Know your priorities
* Know what you want
* Know what lasts and what will pass
* Know what brings you joy
* Know that God loves you and has a plan for you
* Know that worrying doesn’t change the future

HOW TO FOCUS ON WHAT MATTERS

* If it won’t matter in five years, don’t waste more than five minutes on it.

Learn to let go, let little things be little things, refuse to give into fear or anxiety or comparison

* Put reminders where you will see them and keep reminding yourself of what you value and of what matters.
* Slow down and actively spend time doing what you say you want to do – do what brings your soul joy and fills your heart with warmth.
* Write about it and document it – writing is the best way to focus anything.

HOW TO LEVERAGE WHAT MATTERS TO MAKE LIFE WORK BEST

* Keep simple daily expectations of yourself – create a morning mantra around what matters most to you.

I am beautiful.

I am loved by God.

I am loved by my family.

Today I will love others.

* Shed the distraction and the fluff, lighten your load

When you know what matters to you, you will more clearly know and see what doesn’t matter to you.

This will enable and empower you to say “no” more often

This will help you make your yes, yes, and your no, no.

This will keep you from paralysis by over analysis.

MANTRAS & VISUALIZATION
-My first memory of visualization – at Hargrave with swim team

-Deeper understanding as I was recovering from my eating disorder

-Mastery when I started endurance training and mindset training for my own business

-Now an everyday part of my life

Mantras can come from others and from yourself

THE UNDERLYING MANTRA DEEP WITHIN
What are the main belief systems you have and feel?

What is it that you are reading?

What do you listen to?

What are your old tapes?

CONFIDENCE MANTRAS TO START USING NOW
One of the most encouraging things about the future is that it is molded by the things we think about now - and thanks to the neuroplasticity of the brain, we can train our thoughts to create the lives we want to live. A simple way to start training your mind is to mediate on mantras, and so, at the request of many listeners and readers, I wanted to put together a simple list of Confidence Mantras to serve you in cultivating a mindset of confidence. This list is by no means comprehensive, but is a great start to create a foundation of truth in your mind. These Confidence Mantras will rewrite and override any negative mantras you might be holding onto from your past and the more you think on them, say them out loud, pray over them or journal through them, the more you will instill them deep into your psyche - solidifying them as truth.
Confidence Mantras:

* I am confident and able to do anything.
* I am beautiful, created by God and perfect in his eyes.
* I am capable of doing hard things.
* I am gifted with a mind that is flexible and malleable in thinking.
* I am a work in progress and I celebrate my growth rather than obsess over perfection.
* I am one of one.
* I am filled with forgiveness towards those who have hurt me or limited me.
* I am grateful for every breath of life I am given and I am committe...

THE MISTAKE: “HAVE TO” VS “GET TO”
Here’s a blog post I wrote a few years ago on this topic :

What would happen to your life if you changed every “have to” to “get to“? What would happen to you —- physically, emotionally, and professionally?

I woke up with this question on my mind as I pulled myself out of bed at 6:00am for my obligatory morning run. I have to get up, I thought to myself, I have to run. I then pressed my snooze button for an hour, because nobody wants to do what they have to do.

After I started jogging at 7am, I smiled. I love running. I especially love running in the crisp morning air. Running is a blessing, it is a gift, it is an honor. I get to run. I get to run in a safe, beautiful neighborhood where everyone waves good morning to me.

Everyday, I get to exercise. I get to go to work. I get to learn through bad days, and I get to rejoice in good days. Because I am blessed, I get the opportunity to go to the doctor when needed, grocery store whenever I want, and I get to pay my bills on time.

Change every have to into a get to and your life will turn around in ways you never dreamed possible, for we are exceedingly blessed beyond our knowledge.
HOW I USED THIS STRATEGY IN A LIFE-THREATENING SITUATION
-Get to have my baby early – Dr. Walls positioning of the situation … “worse case scenario, we’re having a birthday party today!” God gifted me with Dr. Walls’ attitude.

-Get to skip a few weeks of pregnancy, get to hold my baby in my arms

-Get to have life-saving medicine to keep me from seizures > didn’t get to hold my son immediately but because of the other thing I got to get, I was able to eventually get that too

-Get to experience the outpouring support and expertise of the NICU world

-Get to learn a new type of parenting

-Get to learn how to adapt to an unexpected situation

-Get to practice fighting fear, worry, anxiety about having a four pound baby

-Get to have trust in God in a new level
THE POWER OF INTERNAL LANGUAGE AND HOW TO BE AWARE OF YOURS
Your internal language dictates your life.

HOW TO BE AWARE

Be aware of yours by paying attention to your thoughts.
