Your Guide to Confidence - Being Confident Everyday

Show Notes:
I’m here to share with you not necessarily HOW to be confident, but what to EXPECT when you want to be confident. 

I looked up some verses from the Bible that speak on confidence and wanted to share those with you. I often feel like it’s nice to have something you can go back to that will help anchor the mindset you desire to have & something that will comfort you in times of wanting to give up.

Philippians 4:13, “For I can do everything through Christ, who gives me strength.”

In context, this scripture is Paul expressing how he didn’t need anyone to worry about him because he had figured out how to live through anything, with whatever he had because he had so much faith & belief in God to help & take care of him.

 2 Timothy 1:7, “For God has not given us a spirit of fear and timidity, but of power, love, and self-discipline.”

In context, Paul was telling Timothy to not just sit on the gifts he was given, but to use them and not be ashamed to do so because God has not given him (and all of us) a spirit of fear. He also mentioned that Timothy shouldn’t be ashamed of telling people about the Lord, either.

When you’re confident, you HAVE to believe in yourself. 

• Believe you came up with a good idea or plan.
• Believe you can figure out how to get it accomplished.
• Believe you can get the help you need.
• Believe you can get through whatever setbacks happen.
• Believe you’re worthy of doing this thing.
• And believe that it’s a success, whether it turned out the way you wanted or not.

It’s the noise around us that prevents us from believing we can do it. We put too much stock into other people’s opinions, wanting to impress people that don’t really care that much about us, and allowing our past experiences & mistakes to limit us. We need to break free from all that mess and go all in on what we know deep down inside is enough.

And, if you need EVEN MORE convincing, God tells us we are his masterpiece (Ephesians 2:10) & have been renewed in Him to do great things. If we are so loved & valued by the God of the Universe, we are good enough to do whatever we are called to do.

So, let’s go over our dos & don’ts for being confident:

1. Confident people aren’t afraid to say NO.
2. Confident people respect themselves.
3. Confident people aren’t afraid to tell the truth.
4. Confident people embrace making mistakes & experiencing failures.
5. Confident people don’t need to overpower others to get their point across.
6. Confident people embrace and are flexible to change.
7. Confident people don’t need to prove themselves to anyone.
8. Confident people find no benefit in being envious or jealous of what other people are doing & accomplishing.
