Monday's post on self confidence seems to have been lost, so I am reposting it. Also, I seem to be haivng some trouble with the congruence of the days and dates of these posts. I'm working on fixing this. Sorry.
The other day, I came across some interesting ideas on the relationship between beliefs and success on the internet. I spent some time mulling them over and have come up with the following points about the relationship between beliefs and success.
- Your beliefs drive your expectations.
- Your expectations drive your choices.
- Your choices drive your performance.
- Your performance drives the results you get.
- The results you get drive your success.
- Success begins with a strong belief in yourself.
- Believe you can and you will. Believe you can't and you won't.
- If you believe you can, you’re right. If you believe you can’t, you're right.
These eight bullets sum up the basic idea behind the importance of self confidence. I urge you to think about them, and to ask yourself one important question. What do I believe about myself and my abilities?
