Are you feeling unworthy of your success in life and business? Are you struggling with comparison and self-doubt?
One of the prevailing reasons we second guess ourselves these days is a result of our social media consumption. Scrolling uncensored on social media can lead to more significant harm than good.
Social media has been one of the causes of anxiety and depression. The algorithm and framework make it easy to get influenced and lost in the opinions of others.
Take back your confidence!
Here are a few tips that will help you be more confident in life and business
1. Determine your key values
Becoming more aware of your key values will help you decide what to say yes to and what you shouldn't allow.
Question what's important to you. Why do you do the things you do? What are your non-negotiable?
Once you determine your values, you will begin to feel more confident about how you are living your life.
2. Create before you consume
Comparison is the new thief of confidence. Make you invest in sound knowledge before you begin to consume information on social media. Adequate understanding helps you filter what's important to you and what is true.
3. Work on your strengths and outsource your weaknesses
Everybody has some form of weakness, dwelling on your weaknesses can drain your confidence. Focus on what you can control and then delegate the areas that you cannot handle to those that are skilled in them.
4. Embrace who you are then improve yourself
A lot of people lack self-awareness which is why they can be swayed by varying opinions. Discover yourself, embrace who you are and then work to improve yourself to become the best version of yourself.
5. Pour your energy into the tasks that matter to you
This will boost your confidence, focusing on the tasks that give you life.
6. Surround yourself with people who love and support you.
Stay around those who are also on the growth journey. Avoid those who seem to always compete. Love and support those who believe in you, lift you and inspire you to be the best of yourself.
7. Invest in yourself. Make personal development a priority.
The more you pour into yourself, the more confident you become. Most times we don't feel confident because we lack knowledge.
The reason why you find it hard to speak to an audience is that you lack public speaking knowledge.
8. Celebrate all of your wins.
Learn to give yourself a pat on the shoulder for any progress made no matter how little. It enables your confidence and encourages you to do more.
9. Focus on the present
Enjoy every moment. Quit worrying and stressing over the future that you don't grow in the now.
10. Take care of yourself
Self-care is not selfish. Eat well, exercise, and rest well. Don't wait until you are sick or weak to care for yourself. Most times our negligence is a cause of our lack of self-confidence.
Pinpoint the areas you have been careless and take your confidence back.
