“Believe you can and you’re halfway there.” Theodore Roosevelt

You have the all important deadline. Your boss is breathing down your neck, and you cannot seem to keep motivated. This has happened at least once to all of us. The pressures to succeed and the amount of money it takes to live comfortably keep us grinding away to make ends meet. It can take a toll on you. At the end of the day, you have to look in the mirror, and realize if it is about to happen you have to belief in yourself to take action.

It's been said that to have success one must believe in themselves first.

What happens if you lose belief in yourself because of a trauma like a tragic loss of a loved one, divorce, loss of employment, or business failure?

Success breeds more success and failure breeds more failure.

What do you do if you are heading the wrong direction and you stop believing in yourself?

You must have an action plan to help you get back on track.

Here are 4 steps to help you today

Find a WA friend or member that supports you no matter what

People by nature are social beings. We were meant to be supported by people that love us. Find a person that can be your go to for emotional and spiritual support. A person that will not judge you or put you down. Someone that uplifts you and puts you in a better mood. Not someone that is always putting you down.

Find someone here at WA that always motivates and encourages people. Follow them and it will encourage you because they will post positive messages throughout the week.

Rely on experiences when you had belief in yourself

Think back in your past when things were going as planned, and everything fell into place. For me it was traveling overseas when I was 16 years old, or when I drove for the first time. Those were positive moments when I believed highly in myself.

Example

Think back about a memory when you had a first. What were you doing? Who were you with? Write down what was important to you when you were able to accomplish something for the first time.

Boost your confidence

List out 5 positive attributes that you have.

List out 5 to 10 positive I am statements about yourself:

For example

• I am beautiful both inside and out
• I am wonderful just the way I was created
• I am blessed
• I am a positive influence to those around me
• I am redeemed
• I am a shining light to all people
• I am perfect just as I am
• I am daily learning and achieving greatness
• I am here to help people achieve their dreams offline and online
• I am worthy and saved

Come up with some on your own and say them in the mirror before starting your day.

Fold them up on a piece of paper and carry them in your wallet or purse and look at them throughout the day

Develop a positive routine

• Listen to a positive motivational speaker when you drive to work. Subscribe to podcasts. I like to play them on my speakers through my Bluetooth or aux cable in my car. Who are your favorites? List them in the comments below.

• Find at least one positive thing to say to someone throughout your day and complement them. Say it here to someone old and someone new at WA.
• If people compliment you offline or her online, then smile real big and thank them and then find something nice to say back.

It starts with daily habits and creating a positive atmosphere for others to flourish.
