Sweating The Small Stuff Really Matters
Where does confidence come from?
Is it something you are just born with or are we able to grow our confidence over a period of time? Yes, it would appear that a few individuals just have it. But as someone that had it, lost it fully, and had to build it all back from nothing, I'm going to say you can do some pretty interesting things with building some iron belief in your life.
Maybe you are at a point in your life where confidence is not in the cards but that doesn't have to be the end of your efforts towards having some in your life. While knowing this is comforting, you really do have to understand where confidence comes from in the first place.
Focus on momentum builders. The momentum builders are those little daily actions that many people can pass over as not important. However, if you focus on these little daily actions and do them with intention, they help you build momentum, integrity, and confidence. When you focus on the details of life that others look over, you are separating yourself from the crowd.
Then, when you start to build some serious momentum from doing the little things right, you can raise the bar on your life and start going after bigger goals. Those bigger goals become more doable because you have the background and experience of doing all of the little things right. That's what confidence is really made out of. Confidence is built from knowing you can perform a task because you have done something similar before. Confidence comes from trust.
So don't listen to conventional wisdom that says, "Don't sweat the small stuff." Sweat it. Make sure you sweat it. Focus on the little things in life and they will help you build the momentum to tackle bigger goals.
Lots of individuals get put off when they try something gigantic in life and fail. In reality most people will try something 3 times and then give up without ever coming back to it. But if you build some significant momentum, you'll have the confidence to try something over and over until you get it right.
Isn't that a much better way to live life?
So try something new and bring your vision back down to the micro level.
