We have information on-demand through Google.
And TV shows and movies on-demand from Netflix.
How can we get self-confidence on-demand for those important times when we need an extra boost?
- Repeat the following mantra: “I’ve done it before so I can do it again”.
- Think of similar times when you’ve achieved something that took confidence even if it does not directly apply to the situation at hand (i.e., you need an extra boost of confidence for an upcoming presentation but you have no precedent so imagine when you, say, were a really good friend to someone in need).
- The thing about confidence is that it is not about finding something in the present that you did well previously. Confidence knows no such limitations. Therefore, anything that makes us feel good about ourselves is self-confidence on-demand.
- Your secret weapon: Just trying is a powerful injection of self-confidence. No one ever said we had to speak before a group, go to a new school or start a new job, go on an interview or meet someone new first before we had the self-confidence to do so.
As Teddy Roosevelt said, “Believe you can and you’re halfway there.”
