Gain Confidence and Say Goodbye to Second Guessing Yourself:
3 Keys to Feel Good About the Choices You Make

If you’ve ever spent any time second guessing yourself, know that you have everything you need to make the right decisions for your life. You have all the elements to decide what’s best for your present and future. You possessed all you needed to make good decisions in your past. So, as you move through your seconds, minutes, and hours of each day, here are 3 keys to help you gain confidence and feel good about the choices you make.

Quiet Your Anxious Voicer
If you’ve ever said to yourself, “What if things go wrong?” You spoke in your anxious voice. The voice that’s uneasy and easily pushed off balance. As if there’s only one leg to stand upon. So you sway from one side to the other unsure of your center. Anxious about the outcome.

You need to quiet your anxious voice. You do that by answering, “What if things go right?” Give your anxious voice it’s opposite. When you say, “wrong” answer with “right.” When you say, “What if I fail?” Answer with, “What if I pass?” Answer your anxious voice and give your voice it’s opposite. Always answer your own voice.

Comfort Your Frighten Voicer
Think of your frigtened voice as a small child with wide eyes. Your comforting words are the arms that soothe. “What if I make a mistake?” Are the words of your frightened voice. The voice in need of comfort and reassurance. You need to hear, “You will be just fine.” “You are not so delicate you can’t a mistake.” “You are resilent.” So comfort your frightened voice in the same way a mom comforts a small child. Comfort and encouragement for women are no different.

Pretend You Are Making a Decision for Someone Elser
One of the best ways to develop faith in your ability to make good decisions is to pretend you are making them for someone else. You’ll notice there’s a level of comfort and self assurance present, when you’re making a decision with a friend or loved one. You make choices and share the firm belief, “I know what’s best for you.” As you make your next decision, instead of feeling uncertainty and self doubt, you’ll feel confident. In time, you’ll gain more and more confidence.

You Can Feel Good About the Choices You Maker
You have everything you need to make good decisions for your present and future, just as you’ve had them in your past. Every second, minute, and hour of every day you make choices for your family life. When it comes to you, don’t second guess yourself. Your judgment is solid and sound. Your instincts are your gift. So follow them. Trust that every decision you make is a good one. Not perfect, but good. In the grand scheme of things, good just feels good. Wishing you more joy, peace, and confidence as you explore your choices.
