Negotiate Anything

NOTE

Building Confidence by Taking Action

Confidence is built through action rather than avoidance. Emotions convey messages that can either be true or false, and recognizing the distinction is crucial. Fear often sends messages that discourage action, but it is essential to acknowledge fear while maintaining control over decisions. Courageous conversations require facing fear, as confidence does not equate to being fearless. Delaying action can empower fear to grow; thus, preparation is important, but it should not lead to procrastination. Fear can disguise itself as a desire for more preparation or research, creating unnecessary distance from initiating important conversations. Understanding this pattern helps in escaping the paralyzing effects of fear, emphasizing that taking action, despite discomfort, is pivotal in building confidence.
