Confidence for the Life You Want
One thing I’ve noticed above all else in my career as a hypnotherapist, trainer and coach, is that there are a lot of people (71% according to research I conducted in 2007) who want to be more confident. Most people felt that this confidence would make them happier, less stressed, more successful in their careers and would even give them more friends.
I wonder what five words would describe your life right now? Think about it for a moment. Will you feel that you have lived a rich and fulfilling life if you continue as you are? Or is it time for a change?
Many of us are frustrated that things aren’t working out exactly as we would hope and yet we are unsure why. Often it is because we do not have clear goals or that our beliefs – that which we hold to be true – are limiting us. Or that our values – what we see as important – are being compromised. Or that we don’t have the self-belief to just go for it.
To live your best life, try the following tips:
- Understand what your values are and live your life by them
- Be clear about what kind of life you really want. Look at all the different areas of your life - health, relationships, career, family, finances,spirituality, leisure and personal growth – and make a vision of what you would like it to be like. You might want to use a vision board (see www.pw-hypnotherapy.co.uk for a digital version.)
- Break these goals down into manageable steps and work those steps diligently
- Do an inventory of all the resources you have available to help you – internal and external - and use them.
- Identify any limiting beliefs that you have about achieving your best life and work on transforming those to empowering believes (try 21 Ways and 21 Days to the Life You Want book available on the website below.)
- Learn from every life experience – there is always a positive lesson. This will help you to move forward and build your internal resources.
- As Normal Vincent Peale said “Stand up to your obstacles and do something about them. You will find that they haven’t half the strength you think they have.”
- Surround yourself with positive things: thoughts, people, music, inspirational quotes and read materials and books which are inspiring and uplifting.
- Use your free will and your power to move you forward as you monitor your progress. You have many resources and life experiences which will help you on your way.
- Be kind to yourself and others. Remember that life is not an event but a journey – we are all learning every day. Some learn faster than others and forgiveness is healing and freeing.
The life you want can you yours. And it starts with a decision, a vision and then by actions. Everything you think, everything you are, everything you say and do can move you forward.
