I teach a simple framework for confidence and business success, which is summarized by the word ABLE. (Find out more about this in my podcast on how to get successful in business and life.)

It stands for:

• Awarenes
• Belief
• Lots of action
• Evaluation

Today I want to dive a little deeper into the first step, the A: awareness.

Awareness actually stands for 2 important things you need to do as your first step

You need to become aware of your thoughts on a daily basis as they create your results. This is the key to getting the results you want. (find out more in this episode why you don’t yet have what you want).

But it also stands for awareness of the reason you’re in business in the first place.

You want to know your big why

That is important, because creating a successful business can be tough.

It’s challenging as your brain will keep telling you that you can’t do it:

• That it’s too hard.
• That you’re too tired to do this difficult task today and that you need a rest.
• That others are doing something similar to you and that your work is not needed.

It’s in those moments that your Big Why will pull you through.

What does success mean to you?

Do you feel you are successful?

I believe I am.

And that's because I choose to feel successful.

I can find lots of evidence for it.

Success is a choice.

That doesn't mean I don't see plenty of evidence of why I'm NOT successful.

I see that too.​​

But these are simply the results I haven't achieved yet.

And even though I'm successful I still want to go after those results as well and go after them.

In this week's episode discover how to be successful. You''ll also discover a 4 steps framework on how you can get the results you want in your life.

One of the most important skills you can learn is self confidence.

It's a bit different from confidence.

According to Wikipedia:

Confidence is a feeling of self-assurance arising from an appreciation of one’s own abilities or qualities

I couldn't find the definition of self confidence on Wikipedia which assumes that they believe it's the same thing as confidence.

However, I believe it's something different. It's a definition I learned from one of my mentors: Brooke Castillo.

Self-confidence is being secure in yourself and your abilities. It’s your ability to trust yourself, knowing that you can experience any emotion (including humiliation or failure) without being harmed.

In this podcast you'll learn how to build supreme self confidence. Yes, it's something you practice and learn!
