What True Confidence is (and what it isn’t…)

As we’ve seen in todays lesson, it’s really important to use specific, concrete exercises to build self-belief. But it’s equally important to understand what True Confidence really is…

True Confidence is not thinking that you’re going to get the outcome you desire, no matter what.

Perfection is unrealistic and it’s not helpful to aim for. The cornerstone of confidence is accepting that it’s okay to be less than perfect.

Doing your best and achieving your best are two different things. There are lots of things that you can’t control so that means that the final outcome will always be beyond your control.

True confidence focuses on what you can control. Here’s what it really looks like:

• You have faith in your ability to do the thing
• You put in your best effort to cope with any challenges that arise on the way
• You can accept the outcome – whatever that happens to be
