How to triple your self belief daily
It was my second chance.?
?And my last shot.?
?After being in sales for over six months, I hadn’t produced any results.?
?No sales and no revenue.?
?After the company moved me to a different department, I had an opportunity to start fresh.?
?But, there was one more problem…
?I didn’t believe in myself.?
?After all, why would I? I hadn’t made any sales yet.?
?But, I still showed up everyday and put my best foot forward. Which, if I’m being honest, was hard. I had knots in my stomach before calls and my anxiety was at an all time high.?
?Every week when I met with my new manager she would stress to me, “you have to start believing in yourself.”?
?I would nod in agreement because she was right. But I didn't make any improvements. Mainly because I didn’t know how or where to start.?
?One meeting, in response to her, I burst out “HOW?! How do I start to believe in myself?”
?She looked at me with a smile and responded, “give yourself a reason to.”
?And that was my assignment for the week… create reasons to believe in myself.?
?So I started to try to think of reasons but nothing felt right. They all felt uncomfortable.?
?I shared this with my manager and her response shocked me...?
?She said, “they’re supposed to.”?
?That’s when I realized, everything new feels uncomfortable. The only way anything feels comfortable is if you do it. Over and over again.?
?After that I created an exercise, which helped me produce $250K in revenue in under 6 months. In this time I also received two promotions.
?The exercise is so effective, I still use it to this day when I need it.?
?To start believing in myself I do this everyday…
?Write three UNIQUE reasons to believe in myself.?
?The key is to make each reason different from all those before. It might sound too simple and it is.?
?But, if you do this for a month, you will come out the other end with 90x your self belief.
?Why??
?Because you will have tripled your self belief everyday for 30 days.?
?With that level of self belief…
?What would be possible for you?
