Episode notes

Most people may have a number of memories, experiences, data points in their past that would point towards them being able to have a sense of confidence. And yet, all of us make mistakes, and sometimes we get bogged down or stuck on those data points. You might want to do yourself a favor and recall the one or two best shots of the eight that you put in, rather than beatin yourself up over the two that yo missed.

Dr. Nate Zinsser is an expert in the psychology of human performance who consults to individuals and organizations seeking a competitive edge. He is the director of west point’s influential performance psychology program. His new book is The Confident Mind: A Battle Tested Guide to Unshakeable Performance.

In this discussion, we not only define confidence but debunk some commonly held beliefs on what it means to have confidence in yourself despite that voice in your head that's always saying you're not good enough.
