5 Ways to Recover Your Professional and Creative Confidence
“The big distinction here is to see confidence as an ability that you keep getting better at.” – Dan Sullivan
Ever have a wobble in confidence? Ever have trouble moving forward with a project, because you’re just not sure you’re good enough to create value?
In this 15-minute episode, I talk about:
- The real source of confidence (it isn’t empty “gold stars”)
- Why strengthening your weaknesses isn’t always the best way to improve your confidence
- A quick, powerful technique that will help you see the value you bring to others
- Thoughts on clearing your head from the social media funk
- The “measuring stick” that fosters confidence and creative growth
