936. 1 Thing You Can Do Every Week To Build Your Confidence

In today’s quickie, I am reminding you that the only way to build your confidence is to challenge yourself and keep those promises you made to yourself. 

Where you are right now, in your life, are you lacking confidence? Can you look back at your past week and notice where maybe you haven’t shown up for yourself? You haven’t done the things that you said you were going to do?

I want to share my trick for taking this in small steps and remind you that all that matters is that you are showing up.

935. This Is WHY You Shouldn’t Say Yes To Every Opportunity

For years Chris and I were yes people, and for years we have watched others “yes” themselves to death. Now, we practice not just saying no to things that do not serve our greater vision and purpose but going beyond that and letting it be okay if we disappoint people by saying no. We have consistently learned from others who have beautiful boundaries to protect and who have thrived by doing so. When you say yes to everything, you water down your message. When you constantly say yes, you take yourself away from your primary vision and the message you want out in the world.
