Episode Summary

Today's topic is all about self-confidence and how to overcome low self-confidence.

Episode Notes

Today's topic is all about self-confidence and how to overcome low self-confidence. 

I discuss some of the causes of low self-confidence, such as having unrealistic expectations of yourself, or having coping mechanisms that are unhelpful to you. 

My top tips for overcoming low self-confidence that I am offering you today are:

1. Embracing failure. By embracing failure, you build resilience, and you learn new things along the way. Then, when the successes come, they are even more tantalising! 
2. Getting out of your comfort zone. By doing that, you open up space for new and remarkable things to step into your life.
3. Setting achievable goals. This is from the perspective of breaking down longer-term goals into smaller stages and steps That way you can keep track of where you are and see your achievements along the way. 
4. Managing your negative self-talk. Getting confident whilst experiencing unhelpful rumination is difficult.
5. Practising self-compassion. Become more self-aware of your thoughts. Then manage these with rationality and - you guessed it - confidence. 

I hope the show helps!
