“The big distinction here is to see confidence as an ability that you keep getting better at.” – Dan Sullivan

Ever have a wobble in confidence? Ever have trouble moving forward with a project, because you’re just not sure you’re good enough to create value?

In this 15-minute episode, I talk about:

• The real source of confidence (it isn’t empty “gold stars”)
• Why strengthening your weaknesses isn’t always the best way to improve your confidence
• A quick, powerful technique that will help you see the value you bring to others
• Thoughts on clearing your head from the social media funk
• The “measuring stick” that fosters confidence and creative growth
