052- The Importance of Confidence

---

We are not born confident and no amount of money can buy it. So how do people do nearly impossible things and smile the whole time?

Confidence is a result of self-belief coupled with repeated demonstrations of highly developed skills. This show talks about self-esteem, self-image and the confidence that comes from them both.

1:15   Who benefits from this show? 
Business owners, executives, operating managers and especially entrepreneuers.  Basically, anyone who is responsible for the results and outcome of a business organization.
 
2:00   Talking points: (8:00 mins)

1. Where does confidence originate?
2. Can you decide what confidence you want versus the "fake it 'till you make it" system of success?
3. Once you reach a reliable level of skill does that mean you're confident about it?

 
10:00 Tips for improving in this area or overcoming this problem: (7:00 mins)

1. First make an inventory of your skills.
2. Put a number next to each skill from 1 to 10 with 10 being an expert.
3. Now circle the numbers you want to push up towards the 10 mark.
4. The 10,000 hour rule.

 
17:00 Final Take-aways:
If you want to be good at anything then be expert at it, not just okay at it. Then KNOW when you're achieved real mastery of a skill, not just thinking you got lucky.
 
19:00 Closing comments: (show promotion, next episode, events, etc.)
Most people need a coach to reach exper levels of valueable skills. Not everyting can be learned from books or just diving in to see what happens! A real coach does not teach you the skill - instead he or she will guide you past the distractions until YOU admit it does not get any better than it is.
