Episode 255: When in Doubt

April Price
About this episode

There's never going to be a point at which your brain isn't going to doubt you and question your ability to succeed, no matter how talented or capable you are or how many times you've succeeded or failed in the past. 

Most of us are waiting for the doubts to go away. We think that if we could make our doubts go away then we would find our belief.  

But on today's episode of the podcast, I'm sharing the idea that belief isn't the absence of doubt—believing in ourselves is a choice we are allowed to make even while we have doubts.

It's your brain's job to doubt you. But you never have to let those doubts stop you. Doubt is what your brain does. Believing is what you can do and today's podcast episode is all about how to do just that.
