Always Remember You Are Braver Than You Believe, Stronger Than You Seem And Smarter Than You Think
-Straight Up Mindset
Welcome everyone to the June edition of the Straight Up Mindset Blog. This month’s theme is going to be Trust The Process Series.
One of the biggest dream killers for anyone trying to accomplish goals is having self doubt. When trying to pursue dreams and obtain goals, doubt is something you cant afford. You must believe in your ability and persevere through all of the struggles. You cant expect someone else to believe in you or back you up if you don't even believe in yourself.
I'm not saying it will be easy because it is a struggle that I have dealt with many many times in my life. I even deal with it now sometimes. I have missed plenty of opportunities because of it and even came close to talking myself out of some great opportunities. It can mess with you, but you have to remind yourself that you are capable. Whatever your goal is do it for a greater purpose.
Understand, you are going to fail, you are going to be scared and you are going to feel like you don't have the ability to succeed. If you feel this way you will prove yourself right every time. Don't allow self doubt to keep you from moving forward. Take a moment and realize that without failure there is no lesson learned. The last post we put up the other day said, "a smooth sea never made a skillful sailor."
The last thing I want to add is that if someone is making you doubt yourself, move that feeling aside. Someone of a high skillset might make you feel like you are not up to par, but you need to stop right there. Do not allow yourself to be intimidated by another person. If you feel that person has a one up on you, take that as a challenge. There are always going to be people better, but never allow them to out work you. Your mindset needs to be: You may have more money than me, you may have more connections, you may have more accolades, but YOU WILL NOT OUT WORK ME!
I challenge you to believe in yourself, believe in your abilities and believe in the work you put in. Remember its not about being the best, but its about who makes the most improvements.
