#85 - Confidence | 4 important steps to building strong self-confidence

If your confidence is low, you will have so many regrets. You will be too afraid to start that business, you will not tell that person you love them, and you will let people walk all over you.

School never taught you how to build self-confidence - and it never taught us. As a result, we suffered from low confidence, and we have lots of regrets. So we had to learn how to build strong confidence ourselves.

We learned that confidence is not something you are born with, confidence is a skill - a skill that you listening will learn today.

Today we both run businesses, we challenge ourselves daily on social media and we've both found the women of our dreams. All thanks to the confidence we have built.

We don't want you to suffer as we did. Today we will teach you the skill of confidence.

Today's episode is split up into 5 topics about how to build self-confidence and get strong confidence over time.

1. When our confidence has failed us.
We share personal stories from when we have suffered from low confidence and what the consequences have been.

We show that confidence is not something you are born with - it's a skill you can learn - and we introduce the concept of the four pillars of confidence.

2. The first pillar - Experience
Here, we teach you how to build self-confidence for something you are horrified to do.

And we show how building strong confidence in one area will spill over in lots of other areas.

3. The second pillar - Control
Here, we will talk about the most common mistake that leads to low confidence.

A mistake that both of us have done over and over, and that you listening are most likely doing as well.

4. The third pillar - Values
Here we talk about the importance of choosing what values you will build your self-confidence on.

Most of us have never chosen our values but just been brainwashed into certain ideas by movies or parents, which leads to low confidence.

We will show you how to break free.

5. The fourth pillar - Reflection
In our final topic, we talk about the most misunderstood part about building self-confidence - reflection.

This is the stage where you both find how to build strong confidence in your own way, and where you cement in your confidence over time.

These are the questions from the reflection toolbox:

- What is important to me right now?
- Why is this important to me?
- Do I want this to be important to me?
- Is what's important to me within my full control?

Once you know what is important to you, why it's important to you and you know that it's in your control, you ask:

- Knowing what's important to me, how should I take action?
