Believing in yourself and your dreams, even when faced with naysayers, is crucial for personal growth and success. This means removing toxic relationships and seeking advice from those who have achieved what you aspire to. Confidence comes from competence, which is gained through learning, experiencing, and mastering skills in your field. It's essential to trust yourself and your abilities, even when others may doubt you. Additionally, understanding that everyone's perspective is shaped by their experiences and that those who haven't reached your goals may not have the best advice for you. Believe in your limitless potential and keep pushing forward.
Building confidence through knowledge and experience: Actively learning and gaining a deep understanding of a field can help alleviate feelings of imposter syndrome and build confidence and competence.
Developing confidence and expertise in a field can help alleviate feelings of imposter syndrome. Imposter syndrome is the feeling of not belonging or not being good enough, often due to a lack of knowledge or experience in a specific area. However, by actively learning and gaining a deep understanding of the language, concepts, and acronyms in a particular field, one can build confidence and competence. This can be achieved through reading, listening to podcasts, and seeking out new experiences. As Billy Joel once said, "I'm competent, not great." Being competent is an underappreciated aspect of success and can help one feel more confident in their abilities. As Alan Stein Jr. shares in his story about Kobe Bryant, showing up early and practicing the basics can lead to mastery and competence. In essence, the more you know and the more you do, the more confident you will feel.
Believing in goals and continuously learning: Believing in ambitious goals and continuously learning can lead to success. Focus on character, attitude, and reliability when hiring to build strong teams.
Having a clear, ambitious goal and believing in it, even without concrete proof, can help you grow and learn. This is the essence of an abundance mindset. Along the way, it's important to teach what you learn to build confidence and expertise. When you become confident in your abilities, you can focus on inspiring and motivating others, rather than just delivering content. In the realm of hiring, confidence and competence are crucial. Indeed, a powerful hiring platform, can help businesses attract, interview, and hire the best candidates efficiently, saving time and resources. By focusing on character, attitude, and reliability, in addition to core skills, businesses can build strong teams. Overall, believing in your goals, continuously learning, and hiring the right people can lead to success.
Embrace self-care, positive self-talk, and supportive people for confidence building: Self-care, positive self-talk, and surrounding yourself with supportive people are essential for confidence building. Avoid negative energy and let go of toxic relationships to focus on your goals.
Confidence building is not just about developing certain skills or mindsets, but also managing your energy and the people around you. The speaker emphasizes the importance of self-care, positive self-talk, and surrounding yourself with supportive people. She shares her personal experiences of embracing her femininity, wearing what makes her feel confident, and talking to herself positively. The speaker also advises against listening to naysayers and being around negative people, and encourages letting go of good relationships for something greater. Energy management, according to the speaker, is a crucial aspect of building confidence and achieving your goals. She also mentions her friends Kara Goldin and Heather Monahan, who have written about this topic, and implies that she has had guests on her podcast who might challenge her perspective but that she handles it positively.
Surround yourself with positive people: Be mindful of who you spend time with, surround yourself with positive, successful individuals to grow and maintain a positive outlook on life, and remove toxic individuals to improve your energy levels and overall success.
The people we surround ourselves with significantly impact our success and well-being. It's essential to be mindful of who we spend the most time with, both personally and professionally. Surrounding ourselves with positive, successful individuals can help us grow and maintain a positive outlook on life. Conversely, negative individuals can bring us down and hinder our progress. Consider evaluating your relationships and making a conscious effort to engage with those who have a positive influence on you. Additionally, don't be afraid to remove toxic individuals from your life. As UCLA coach John Wooden once said, "You are the average of the five people you spend the most time with." Make a list of the most impactful people you've ever met and take steps to reconnect with them. Remember, the relationships we cultivate can significantly impact our energy levels and overall success.

Holly shared her experience of gradually nurturing a connection with someone by sharing recommendations and keeping in touch over time. This approach not only helped her build a valuable network but also ensured that when she needed a favor, the person was more than willing to help. Another key takeaway was the importance of surrounding oneself with positive energy and eliminating negative influences. Holly emphasized the significance of having an abundant mindset and believing in oneself, as well as managing energy by identifying and removing energy-sucking individuals who may have held one back for years. Overall, Holly's insights offer valuable advice for anyone looking to build strong relationships and increase their confidence in the face of naysayers.
