Confidence Coaching

Confidence is a very precious commodity. Those who possess it find it easier to learn new skills, to make friends, to enjoy happy relationships, to adapt to change, and to achieve what they want in life.

The 3 biggest myths of self confidence. These are the most common things we hear from our clients:

1) "You have to be born with it."
Not true, self confidence is a set of skills that can be learned, just like learning to drive or play a game.

2) "If you've had your confidence destroyed, it's gone for good."
Wrong. It may take a greater leap of faith to start building it back up, but once you're there you'll be much hardier than you were before and less likely to have your confidence shaken again.

3) "I'll know I'm confident when I can be sure I'll succeed at something new".
How can you know you'll succeed when you've never done something before?

When you are confident, others are likely to want to entrust you with new challenges, difficult problems to solve, and tasks that require strong leadership. You will also look attractive to other people – a lack of defensiveness and a desire for engagement with others is a powerful magnet.

When you are confident that you can solve problems and rise to challenges, you are able to cope with crises more easily.

Being confident makes you more open to learning and experimenting in life, leading to greater self-fulfillment and emotional growth.

Confidence has nothing to do with being self-satisfied or superior. It means being happy to admit that you have failings, that you do not know everything, and have plenty to learn. Confident people have fewer problems with role changes because they see change as an opportunity for learning. Apart from that, you are also more attentive around you because you won’t be overly concerned by what others think of you, or preoccupied with maintaining a defensive front to cover up your insecurities.

Confidence affects a person’s capacity to enjoy life’s ups and cope with its downs. It is a very personal feeling, so to build confidence you need to know what triggers it in you. Here at Path 2 Excellence, you will develop the essential ability to take charge of your life, make positive changes, assess your current level of confidence and identify areas of improvement. You will also acquire the skills necessary to project a more confident image, motivate yourself, and build deep-down lasting confidence to ensure you fulfill your potential in life.
