What is confidence? I believe confidence is all about being positive concerning what you can do…and not worrying about what you can’t do. A confident person is open to learning, because they know that their confidence allows them to walk through life’s doorways, eager to discover what waits on the other side. They know that every new unknown is a chance to learn more about themselves and the chance to unleash hidden abilities.
Confident people do not concentrate on their weaknesses…they develop and maximize their strengths. For example, on a scale of one to ten, I might be a two when it comes to playing the piano. Now, if I were to practice long and hard…and if my husband could put up with it…I could, maybe transform myself into a middle-of-the-road, level five player. However, as a teacher, trainer and public speaker, I might be an seven. So if I invest my time and talent in devloping this ability, I might just be able to reach that level ten.
When you look at it this way, it is easier to see where you need to invest your efforts…
What are the strengthns that you need to start focusing on this year…
Start and focus on one and enjoy the journey that it will take you on.
