She’s Sharing A Valuable Message About Self-Confidence, Along With A Few Steps To Help You Be More Confident

Confidence is the thing that helps you reach your fullest potential and conquer whatever challenges life throws your way.
When you’re confident, you are less likely to back away from opportunities, and if you aren’t successful at something the first time around, having confidence will allow you to try again.
For many people, learning how to build confidence is an ongoing effort. Sometimes, it seems that right when you need it the most, your confidence levels can plummet to an all-time low, down into the depths of a deep, dark pit, never to be found again.
One of the most precious pieces of information you can learn in life is that confidence is not a special trait that some people are born with.
Sure, it comes to certain people more naturally, but confidence is actually a skill that can be acquired.
If you have specific areas of life you want to build more confidence in, whether with work or relationships, here is some advice you can follow.
Dr. Julie (@drjuliesmith) is a psychologist, and she’s on TikTok sharing a valuable message about self-confidence.
“If you’re waiting to feel more confident before you start doing that thing that you’ve always wanted to do, stop waiting for confidence to just arrive,” began Dr. Julie.
“It’s not coming. Confidence doesn’t come first; action does. And the thing that you do every day will become your comfort zone, so if there’s something you want to master but it makes you nervous, do it as much as you possibly can.”

According to Dr. Julie, there are two steps you can take to feel more confident. The first step toward gaining more confidence is to do scary things often.
Practice makes perfect, and the more often you do something, the better you will become at it, which in turn will make you feel more self-assured.
The second step is that you must also be willing to do it badly and without actually feeling confident for as long as it takes for you to show improvement.
What areas of your life do you want to grow more confident in?
@drjulie ? One of the most valuable things I’ve learned so far in my life is that confidence is not fixed. It’s not a personality trait that some are born with and others born without. If you want to feel more confident at something you need to follow these two steps. 1. Do it as often as you can. 2. Be willing to do it badly and without feeling confident, for as long as it takes to get better. What area of your life do you want to build your confidence in? ?? Feel free to share ?
