Living confidence

Think of confidence not as something you need, or as something you must

somehow acquire before taking action. Instead, see confidence as something

you do, as something you express, and then go do it.

Real confidence comes from the act of investing yourself in it. Real

confidence comes with action, not in advance of action.

If you wait in idleness for confidence to somehow magically come, it never

will, but there is no need to wait. Everything you need to take action is

there, whether you are confident or not.

Confidence can add a powerful positive dimension to all you do. To make

confidence take hold, build it with your actions.

Let go of the myth that you must first be confident before proceeding

forward. Go ahead, make the effort, and the confidence will surely come to

add even more power to your actions.

Stop waiting, stop wishing for confidence. Go ahead, take action, and start

living the experience of it.
