‘Self-confidence is not the absence of self-doubt. It’s being able to live with doubt as your companion but not as your master.’ - Paul McGee ('Self-Confidence': Capstone Publishing)
We all experience some doubts and insecurities. But sometimes these feelings become so intense that they take over and either we’re overcome by paralysing self-doubt, or we go to the opposite extreme and take on more than we can reasonably manage, leading to burn-out.
If you’re experiencing any of these things, WY-FY coaching can help you to identify and deal with self-limiting beliefs and negative thoughts, work on strategies to restore your faith in yourself and help to restore your functionality. It’s not the same as therapy or counselling, and it won’t ignore what has brought you to this situation; but the focus will be on helping you to move from your ‘present’ state into your ‘desired’ state. Part of this process will involve improving your resilience.
Resilience is not just about coping or bouncing back after a difficult or traumatic experience:
‘Resilience is your ability to adapt. It’s your capacity for change.’
-Jenny Campbell (‘The Resilience Dynamic’: Practical Inspirational Publishing)
To be successful as a leader or in life, you need to be able to adapt to changing circumstances every day. Resilience is what enables you to negate stress and improve your well-being and performance, both in and out of work. The greater your resilience, the stronger your self-confidence is likely to be.
The good news is that everyone can develop resilience. If you’d like to find out how, WY-FY coaching will be able to help.
