ADVICE

Overcoming Self-Doubt When Starting Something New

Summary: When starting something new, don't wait for confidence; tap into courage first. Confidence comes from experience, but courage is the leap of faith that gets you started. Ignore naysayers, especially those who haven't achieved what you're aiming for.

  • ధ️ Courage over Confidence: When venturing into uncharted territory, courage precedes confidence. You gain confidence through experience, but courage is the initial spark.
  • 🤸 Proven Track Record of Resilience: You've overcome obstacles before, proving your resilience. Tap into that strength to fuel your courage.
  • 🚫 Ignore Naysayers: Those who haven't pursued your path can't offer valid advice. Don't let their doubts hinder your progress.
  • ➡️ Focus Forward: Stop looking in the rearview mirror; your past isn't where you're going. Focus on your vision and move forward with courage.
  • 📣 Social Media Shift: Once you've decided to change your life, remember your social media isn't for your old life. It's for your new one.

Key Takeaway: Don't let self-doubt or the opinions of others paralyze you. Tap into your courage, take the leap, and build your confidence along the way.
