The Importance of Taking Action
To build confidence, the key is to lead with action rather than trying to think positively. For those struggling with a sense of insufficiency, leading with positivity is likely to be crushed by their strong negative set point. By starting with action, even with small promises like waking up on time or not hitting the snooze button, individuals can begin building a sense of pride and trust in themselves. Taking action is crucial for those who are chronically uncomfortable and allows for the gradual expansion of goals and identity over time.
The Power of Small Steps and Consistency
The size of the first step towards building discipline and trust with oneself is crucial. Rather than setting overly ambitious goals, it is important to start with incredibly small promises that are easy to accomplish. By focusing on the smallest step possible, individuals can build momentum and gradually increase the level of challenge. Over time, even tiny steps can compound and lead to significant growth and progress. By expanding the time horizon, individuals can realize the latent leverage of consistent small steps and understand that the goal is long-term success in daily routines and habits.
In this moment, YouTuber and podcaster Chris Williamson gives his best advice for building confidence. Chris believes that the most important step for achieving confidence is to lead with action. Acting first is more important than starting with positive thinking, as this positivity can easily be crushed by negativity. To being on the road to confidence, you should start with an incredibly small step and easy promises that you will never break. Chris says that little by little these small steps will compound until you have undeniable proof of past actions that you can feel truly proud and confident for achieving.
