The courage to step onto the ice

The courage to step onto the ice

Have you been watching the new series of “Dancing on Ice”?

How brave are those celebrities who take part when they can hardly even stand upright on the ice!!

I admire the confidence they have to “give it a go”.

Because that is what confidence really is – giving it a go even when you don’t “feel” confident.

Feeling confident and acting confident are two very different things that people often mix up.

It’s clear to even the most amateur viewer that some of these people do not feel confident stepping onto that ice – and yet they do.

Even though they know:

  • They might fall and hurt themselves.
  • They will struggle to get around the ice.
  • That millions of people will be watching them.
  • There will be the critics out there who will say negative things.

They still do it – THAT IS CONFIDENCE.

The willingness to take action even though it may feel uncomfortable, difficult or embarrassing.

Be inspired by the celebs who take to the ice and step into something new and unfamiliar.

That’s how you grow in confidence and fill your life and career with amazing new experiences.


A reminder that this year’s Confidence Challenge takes place next month.

If you would like to make 2025 the year you grow in confidence, come join us.
