Episode 3557:

Joshua Becker explores how confidence is less about innate talent and more about deliberate practice and mindset. By focusing on preparation, embracing discomfort, and shifting internal narratives, he offers practical strategies to cultivate authentic self-assurance and overcome self-doubt.

Quotes to ponder:

"Confidence is not a personality trait or a fixed attribute, it is a skill that can be developed."

"We become more confident when we prepare, practice, and embrace discomfort."

"Changing the narrative we tell ourselves may be the most powerful step in building confidence."
