Courage

There are several threats to a person’s self-confidence that exist to derail them at some time or another. It’s important to recognize and understand the ‘confidence’ threats by being empowered, not waiting for the next shoe to drop, being prepared the best way possible.Let’s review threats that you can take charge of.

Rejection makes us afraid. Afraid to invite someone out. Afraid to ask for the promotion. Afraid to start a difficult conversation. Afraid to start our business. We assume that our interest, ideas or intentions will be dismissed. What’s not set in stone is how you react to rejection. Your reaction to a negative response is the single most important thing you control. This is where your power lies. Finding ways to positively react to and handle daunting rejection is where you have influence over your life, situation and future.
