There is genuine evidence and a real proven psychological theory behind why affirmations actually improve our confidence. Affirmations also have the amazing kind of healing effect or benefit, I guess, of reducing rumination - getting stuck on negative thoughts. Do things that we're good at and even better working towards being better at them brings out our self-confidence because it promotes internal rather than external validation.
This weeks episode we deep dive into the psychology self confidence and how we can master our sense of confidence and self assurance to be the best versions of ourselves. We discuss the elements that make up confidence, the impact of nature versus nurture and the difference between self confidence and arrogance. We also explore some of the evidence-based strategies that we can use to improve our self esteem and why “faking it till you make it” is more than just a saying. Listen now!
