4 ways to break insecurity and feel more confident
by Joe · 20 things on Twos
- Ask yourself why you are about to say or do something?
- Is it to be liked?
- To mask something you feel insecure about?
- Or is it coming from a place of strength and truth?
- If you practice coming from a place of integrity and believe it, you will be much more likely to remain confident–even when circumstances change.
- Always do your best
- There's no faster way to fall prey to outside input than when you're feeling insecure.
- And there's no better way to feel insecure than knowing you half-assed something or don't believe in what you're doing.
- If you do your absolute best, you can be proud and not give a damn about other people's beliefs.
- Find a temporary role model
- Get clear on why this person is impressive and inspiring to you
- When faced with a challenge that leaves you guessing how to react: Ask yourself…
- What would my hero do?
- Typically, the reason you look up to this person is because they are an unapologetic version of themselves. Which you can be too.
- Before you know it, you'll ditch your hero and start asking yourself…
- What would I do?
- Love yourself
- No matter what you say or what you do, you will realize that you are stuck with the one person you can never get rid of, yourself. So love that person unconditionally because it is the only person you can truly control.
