Everyone has what it takes to become a more confident person – it’s just that some people instinctively know how to unleash it.

It doesn’t take a lecture or a TED video to be more assertive – confident people speak up instead of overthinking it.

Becoming a leader isn’t complicated, but it does take vowing to be that leader.

One of my NYU students recently spoke of how much they wanted to lead a class group project and by the time the groups were formed, had the look and desire that made them the unanimous choice.

Wishing won’t do it, acting will.
