LEADERSHIP - Mastering the art of Self-confidence

Mastering the art of Self-confidence

 

There is a saying : " when the purpose of a thing is unknown, abuse is inevitable"

When we know the purpose of a thing, it is likely we will not abuse it. Likewise if we know our purpose and walk according to it, then we will not abuse ourselves and by doing that we make better use of our personal power.

Orison swett Marden noted and I quote " There can be no confidence or assurance and half the battle is the conviction that  we can do what we undertake "

We need to become more confident and competent, the law of indirect effort says : almost everything we get in life involving People and emotional experiences come to us more indirectly than directly. These things come to us by doing something else.

Law of Attraction 🧲 - " You inevitably attract into your life people , ideas, circumstances, and opportunities that are in harmony with your dominant thoughts " so we see that most of the things that come to us are most of our dominant thoughts 💭

It is important we take note of the law of concentration - this law says whatever we dwell on continually grow in your reality "

Whatever we concentrate our mind on, continually grow 🪴 in our reality. That is a fact, whatever we give in our time to think about and act upon , continue to grow 🪴. Thought is creative, think right, even the scriptures noted that we should guard our thoughts for in it is the fountain of life 🧬.

Law of substitution- This law says " your conscious mind can only hold one thought at a time , positive or negative "  This imply that you cannot think of two things at the same time. Whatever your conscious mind dwell upon, indirectly your subconscious also accept it as instructions or command.

Law of Emotion - " every decision that you make , every thought that you think , every action you take , is based on an emotion of some kind "  The emotional state of our mind can control our subconscious mind , so we must take note and try to manage our emotions, employing strategies to manage ourselves in our high and low.

Mastering ourselves is very important but we need to make the decision , to be clear on what we are doing or want to do , we can rely on the following guidelines by considering the four C's of inner confidence by Brian Tracy 👇

🪐 Clarity- We must set clear goals about ourselves, what we want to become and what exactly we want in life 

🪐 conviction - We have to believe that we can achieve and become anything, not just belief but also setting realistic time based plan to realize our goals. I recommend the SMART GOAL technique. Our goals must be SPECIFIC, MEASURABLE, ATTAINABLE, REALISTIC AND TIME-BOUND.

To better master ourselves and become more confident, we must kill FEAR, and be courageous to pursue our dreams and whatever it is that matters to us, stay away from your comfort zone. Our comfort zone is not limited to our home 🏠, it encompasses anything that makes us too comfortable, it may be waking up late, so by waking early you are out of your comfort zone,   maybe we feel too relaxed, we become more active by stepping out of this comfort zone and so on.

We must kill the RESISTANCE to change. Change is constant, but it's also not easy to change. That is why we have ADDICTION. It takes so much energy to start a thing and one which the mind's dwell upon to change. This is the reason we find it difficult to stop most of the things we are addicted to, imagine yourself addicted to good things and how your life will be. Definitely you we be amazed by how far you'll achieve. Commit your mind to great activities and make them a part of you. Reading is uncomfortable to many, but for you to read to this point, it shows you are committed to reading and the treasures you cannot imagine. So let us always commit our mind on great things, so we can see great results.

We must set our goals according to priority by learning to focus on the most important on our list. The one thing that can affect other of your goals positively and don't forget to make it TIME-BOUND. Set a particular period you wish to see certain Outcomes and you see yourself doing amazing things.

" Measure your life with TIME set consciously by you and you would see yourself achieving great results, a value of your TIME is a value of your Life  " - Joachim Duru 

Remember to fully harness your inert power and become more confident , you must first discover your purpose.
