But Phillip Ibrahim, CEO of Imotobank, is changing that by pioneering a new model that prioritizes transparency, convenience, and customer empowerment.When Phillip started selling cars online in 2001, he saw an opportunity to remove the unnecessary overhead costs that traditional dealerships pass onto customers. "What does this $20 million building add in value to the consumer?" he recalls asking himself. "And I couldn't answer anything positive other than the consumer has to pay for it."Fast forward to today, and Imotobank operates on a radically different model. Customers can browse, consult, and finalize their purchases through a streamlined digital experience. "Within 12 or 15 minutes, we have a computer meeting with them, we source a car if we don't have one already, and we fill the order," Phillip explains. "Five to seven days later, the car is delivered to their doorstep."Beyond convenience, Phillip's model is designed to make car buying fairer. "Most car dealers don't give that level of transparency, and we do," he says. "We share screens with customers, show them the best wholesale transactions, and explain why each option is priced the way it is." This consultative, open-book approach ensures that buyers understand what they're paying for—without the usual dealership markup games.But Imotobank's ambitions go beyond selling cars. The company is currently raising capital through a regulated investment crowdfunding campaign on Netcapital. With the funds, Phillip plans to unite 50 to 100 independent dealers under Imotobank's innovative umbrella. This will enable them to share technology, reduce costs, and provide better financing options for underserved consumers. "We want to create a captive finance company that doesn't prey on the consumer but gives them a reasonable rate," he explains.Phillip's vision for Imotobank isn't just about making car buying easier—it's about leveling the playing field for both consumers and independent dealers. "The future of the car business isn't static listings on a website," he says. "It's giving people proper advice, full transparency, and fair pricing."Traditional car dealerships have long been associated with high-pressure sales tactics and hidden fees.

"I trust that God has been good to me," he says, emphasizing that his ability to recognize new opportunities and adapt to challenges stems from this deep-seated belief. "Even if I make a mistake, He kind of fixes them up for me and makes them go more smoothly."Summary of the Superpower:Phillip's faith-driven mindset has allowed him to embrace risk and innovation with confidence. He describes his superpower as recognizing opportunities and having the courage to pursue them. "I'm the product of two engineers, and I ended up having two kids who are both studying mechanical engineering. My superpower is recognizing interesting and new things, being totally unafraid to try them." His faith acts as a guiding force, allowing him to navigate uncertainty with trust rather than fear.Illustrative Story:One of the most defining moments of Phillip's career came when he was at the peak of his business in 2006, selling 100 cars a month on eBay. "I never thought we were going anywhere but up," he recalls. However, a sudden system failure shut down all of his eBay accounts overnight, leaving his business with no foundation. The collapse was financially and emotionally devastating. "I had a $2 million local line of credit, a mortgage, and was charging $350,000 a month on my Amex card. Imagine how it felt to come crashing down." Instead of giving up, Phillip leaned on his faith. "I prayed, and I felt an epiphany: If I put all my energy into building something new and great, it would be far more productive than fighting the past." This resilience allowed him to rebuild his business into the innovative Imotobank model that is thriving today.Tips for Developing This Superpower:Trust in the Process: Be open to new opportunities and trust that challenges will lead to growth.Embrace Failure as a Lesson: View setbacks as stepping stones rather than roadblocks.Take Calculated Risks: Fear often holds people back from innovation—push past hesitation with confidence.Stay Rooted in Your Values: Whether faith-based or principle-driven, let your core beliefs guide decisions.Focus on Building, Not Fighting: Energy spent on creation is always more valuable than energy spent on conflict.By following Phillip Ibrahim's example and advice, you can make faith-driven innovation a skill. With practice and effort, you could make it a superpower that enables you to do more good in the world.Remember, however, that research into success suggests that building on your own superpowers is more important than creating new ones or overcoming weaknesses.

Let's talk about setting the stage for greatness, because if you're not planning for success, you're basically setting yourself up to fall flat. I'm breaking down the importance of goal setting—but not in that boring, surface-level way. We're getting real about evaluating your goals through the lens of your actual time and energy. Because let's face it: not every goal deserves your full attention, and some need to wait their turn. Before you dive headfirst into your next big ambition, we're reflecting on last year—the wins, the losses, and everything in between. What did you crush? Where did you miss the mark? Spoiler alert: those missed opportunities and failures are pure gold when it comes to learning and growing. This isn't just a “rah-rah, set goals” pep talk; it's about building a roadmap that's rooted in your unique journey. We're also diving into one of the most powerful tools for personal and professional growth: feedback. Yep, we're embracing it, not dodging it, because feedback is your secret weapon to leveling up. I'm sharing how to use feedback as a launchpad for even more success, transforming critiques into actionable insights that help you adjust your course and crush it in the future. Whether it's about refining your goals or tweaking your approach, feedback gives you the clarity you need to make smarter, bolder moves. If you're ready to reflect, reassess, and set a future so solid it makes your past self jealous, this episode is for you. You're capable of more than you think, and I'm here to help you own it!

Embrace Failure as a Learning Opportunity: Arshad highlights the importance of viewing failures not as personal shortcomings but as character-building experiences.

This perspective helps in maintaining resilience and continuing to pursue one's goals despite challenges.2. Cultivate Mental Resilience and Adaptability: Arshad discusses the significance of mental exercises, such as meditation and introspection, to build resilience. He suggests that just as physical exercise is essential for the body, mental exercises are crucial for the mind.

Part Two. Today's guest is Erin Diehl, founder and CEO of Improve It, a company that uses improv to help teams grow and thrive. Like me, she's also a top podcast host! From a young age, Erin dreamed of becoming a talk show host. Why did she choose that path? And how did her journey lead her to combine improv and business? I told Erin, “You're in the business of joy.” But beyond joy, we also talked about failure. Erin calls herself a “failfluencer”—a blend of failure and influence. This two-part series dives into her unique approach to joy, failure, growth, and learning. Key Highlights of Our Interview: WTF: Worst Terrifying Failure “2020 was my crash course in failure. The pandemic forced our in-person business to pivot entirely online overnight. At the same time, I juggled new motherhood, supporting a recovering parent, and trying to keep my business afloat. It was my WTF moment: my Worst Terrifying Failure.” This breakdown captures the essence of the MOVE ON methodology: 1. Marinate: Sit With It, Not In It Failure isn't something you can brush off overnight. Take the time to sit with your worst terrifying failure—your WTF story. Reflect deeply. Walk, journal, or simply allow yourself to process. It's about feeling without rushing to fix. 2. Own It: Forgive and Face the Thought Worms “Own your part in the failure, but more importantly, forgive yourself. We repeat 80% of our negative thoughts daily, so break that cycle. Recognize those thought worms for what they are and stop letting them dictate your story.” 3. Verify the Lessons: What Will You Take With You? “Failure comes bearing lessons—two or three takeaways that you can carry forward. Identify what you've learned and how you'll avoid the same pitfalls in the future. This step transforms failure into wisdom.” 4. Evaluate: What's the Plan? 5. Observe the Growth: Prepare for the Next Chapter 6. Embrace Failure as Part of Change Connect with us: Host: Vince Chan | Guest: Erin Diehl Chief Change Officer: Make Change Ambitiously.

On this show, we make it a point to discuss success and ways of finding success and how others have found it to help inspire our listeners to go and get it themselves.  Today, we're taking a bit of a different approach and discussing failure.  More specifically, how to take failure to improve yourself and your business which is, admittedly, not the easiest thing in the world to do.  We might be talking about failure, but we hope you succeed in listening to this episode of The Culture Matters Podcast.

This one's a wild ride, so let's dive in! I'm giving you a real, raw look into my current struggles, and trust me—you'll get it. We're talking about facing failure head-on, starting with my own. Yep, I went big and didn't quite stick the landing. But here's the thing: failure isn't fatal, it's fuel. In this episode, I'll show you how I'm recommitting to my goals, and diving deep into execution strategies because greatness doesn't come from half-hearted effort. You know what else we're mastering? Self-talk. That little voice inside your head. It can either hype you up or drag you down. I'm spilling all the tea on how I choose to show up with energy that serves my goals, instead of sabotaging them. We'll unpack the power of feedback and learning because—spoiler alert—it's the secret sauce to growth. I'm getting real about how you can shift your mindset from performance-driven to growth-focused, and why you should stop taking failure so personally. We wrap up with some final thoughts that'll light a fire under you, reminding you that every stumble is a step closer to success. So, if you're ready to turn your struggles into superpowers, hit that play button! Let's find greatness, together.

Ever feel like you're just watching others succeed while you stay stuck? What if I told you the key to breaking free lies in one simple shift: becoming a producer, not just a consumer? In this episode of The Happy Hustle Podcast, we're diving deep into why you need to become a producer and not just a consumer. I'm breaking down 10 reasons why shifting from consumer to producer is crucial for your personal and professional growth. Plus, I'll guide you through eight actionable steps to help you make this mindset shift and start producing more value in the world. Producers create value—whether through products, services, or content. They are actively involved in shaping their world and contributing to society. Consumers, on the other hand, simply take in what others create, often passively.If you're always asking, “What can I get?” instead of “What can I create?”—it's time for a change.Why You Need to Be a Producer: 10 Reasons to Make the Shift Control Over Your Time and Energy- Producers have control over their schedules and output. As a producer, you're not just reacting to what others are putting out—you're creating on your terms, leading to greater autonomy in your life. Creativity and Innovation- Producing requires problem-solving and critical thinking, which fuels your creativity. Consumption, especially passive consumption, doesn't stimulate your mind in the same way. Greater Contribution to Society- Producers add value to the world. Whether it's a product, a service, or content, creating something that benefits others feels incredibly fulfilling. It's your way of giving back to the community. Financial Freedom- Producers build businesses and create multiple streams of income. If you want financial freedom, becoming a producer is a must. Consumers, on the other hand, spend their money on what others have created. Personal Fulfillment- There's a deep sense of satisfaction that comes from creating something meaningful. Whether it's a podcast, a blog, or even a book, producers feel fulfilled by their contributions. Building Skills and Knowledge-When you produce, you develop new skills and gain expertise in your field. The act of creating helps you grow in ways consuming never will. Networking and Relationships- Producers naturally build relationships with others who are also creating value. You're part of a network of like-minded individuals, opening doors to opportunities consumers rarely get. Increased Confidence and Self-Worth-Producing gives you a sense of empowerment. You'll gain confidence in your abilities, which will enhance your self-worth. Ownership and Legacy- Producers create things that last. Whether it's a business, a product, or a body of work, what you create becomes part of your legacy. A Happier, Purpose-Driven Life- Producers tend to have a clearer sense of purpose, leading to a more joyful and fulfilling life. Consumption, on the other hand, often leaves people feeling empty and unfulfilled.Now that you know the why, let's talk about the how. Here are eight simple steps to help you shift from consumer to producer:How to Become a Producer: 8 Actionable Steps Identify Your Strengths and InterestsStart by reflecting on what excites you. Is it writing, creating videos, building products, or solving problems? Focus on what you're passionate about, as this will keep you motivated. Start Small and Be ConsistentYou don't need to create a masterpiece overnight. Start by producing something small every day or every week. Write a blog post, share an insight on social media, or work on a business idea for one hour a day. Limit ConsumptionTrack how much time you're spending on consumption—whether it's TV, social media, or podcasts. Be intentional and limit your consumption to educational or inspirational content that fuels your creativity. Create Value for OthersShift your focus from “What can I get?” to “What can I give?” Think about how you can solve problems for people and offer value that makes a difference. Set Clear GoalsSet specific, measurable goals for your production efforts. Whether it's launching a blog, building a side hustle, or producing content regularly, having clear goals will keep you on track. Find Accountability PartnersSurround yourself with like-minded producers who will hold you accountable. Join communities, mastermind groups, or partner with others to stay motivated. Embrace Failure as a Learning OpportunityDon't be afraid to fail. Every producer encounters setbacks, but it's how you learn and grow. Use failure as a stepping stone to improve your next creation. Celebrate Your WinsTake time to celebrate your progress, no matter how small. Every step forward is a win, and recognizing that will keep you motivated to continue producing.The choice is yours. You have the power to shift from consumer to producer and create value for the world. It's a mindset change that will lead to more fulfillment, financial freedom, and a purpose-driven life. So, what are you waiting for? Stop consuming and start producing—your future self will thank you for it.

SHOW NOTES: On this show…we are embracing leadership as an attitude and not just as a title. Maybe you're a CEO, VP, or Director and maybe you don't hold a title at all. Either way, you are a leader. You don't need a corner office or fancy title to lead; all you need is a little courage and a lot of self-belief. It's all about finding your voice and stepping into your power, whether you're running a team, working behind the scenes, or just navigating your everyday life. Leadership isn't about calling the shots—it's about taking charge of your journey, lifting others up, and being the CEO of your own story. We'll explore how you can lead from where you are and talk about how being the “entrepreneur” of your life means setting your own course. It's time to ditch the idea that leadership is only for a select few—if you've got passion, purpose, and a willingness to grow, then congratulations, my friend—you're already a leader!  For some people, taking charge comes easily. For me, it was inherent. I can remember times when I stepped up and took charge, times when I was asked, and times when it was assumed. I also remember times when it didn't always go as planned. There are instances where I find comfort in mentoring and encouraging but not leading and other times where I purposely, take a back seat. What about you? Where are you most comfortable and where would you like to grow? Being a leader is about mindset, whether in a workplace, a community, or your personal life. Everyone has the potential to lead by finding their voice and taking control of their journey. Matt Mayberry helps us understand that You Don't Need to Be “the Boss” to Be a Leader found at the Harvard Business Review Michelle Rees shows us How to Take Ownership of Your Life (and Get Everything You Want) found at Whole Life Challenge Simon Sinek gives some valuable insight on What Makes a Leader Great? Found on his YouTube channel Embracing an entrepreneurial spirit is all about thinking like a visionary, taking initiative, and having the courage to pursue new opportunities. Here are some ways to cultivate that mindset in your own life: Adopt a Growth Mindset Entrepreneurs are always learning. Instead of fearing failure, see it as a chance to grow. Every challenge or mistake is an opportunity to improve, and this mindset opens doors to new possibilities. Take Initiative Stop waiting for permission or perfect timing. Whether it's in your job, personal life, or side projects, be proactive. Look for opportunities to lead, solve problems, or create something new. The entrepreneurial spirit thrives on taking action. Set Big Goals and Break Them Down Entrepreneurs dream big, but they know that success doesn't happen overnight. Set ambitious goals, but break them into smaller, manageable steps. This keeps you focused and motivated while building momentum. Be Comfortable with Risk To think like an entrepreneur, you've got to get comfortable with uncertainty. Not every idea will succeed, and that's okay. Take calculated risks, and view them as a necessary part of innovation and growth. Get Creative with Problem-Solving Entrepreneurs don't just accept problems—they find creative solutions. Train yourself to think outside the box. When something doesn't go according to plan, instead of throwing in the towel, ask yourself, “What's another way to approach this?” Embrace Failure as a Learning Experience Entrepreneurs see failure as feedback. Don't let setbacks stop you—learn from them. Whether it's a botched presentation or a business idea that didn't take off, each “failure” is a stepping stone toward success. Network and Collaborate Entrepreneurs know the power of connection. Surround yourself with people who inspire you, challenge you, and push you to be better. Collaboration sparks new ideas and can lead to exciting opportunities. Stay Flexible and Adaptable The entrepreneurial spirit thrives on flexibility. Be willing to pivot when things change or new opportunities arise. If plan A doesn't work, entrepreneurs are already thinking of plan B (and C, and D). Cultivate Passion and Purpose Entrepreneurship isn't just about making money—it's about passion. Find what excites you and pursue it with enthusiasm. Having a sense of purpose fuels persistence and keeps you going even when the road gets tough. Celebrate Small Wins Entrepreneurship is a journey, and it's important to celebrate the milestones along the way. Recognize your progress, no matter how small, because it keeps you motivated and energized for the bigger goals ahead. CHALLENGE: It's time to step up and take charge—be the leader of your own life by finding your voice, embracing risks, and turning challenges into opportunities. Remember, leadership is an attitude, not a title, and you have the power to create the path you want!   I Know YOU Can Do It!

Overcoming Limiting Beliefs for a Positive Mindset | Guiding Lights Series Ep. 36   Visit our sponsor today!   For more positivity, good news, and uplifting messages visit:  Thank you for listening! If you like, please subscribe for more!   Overcoming Limiting Beliefs for a Positive Mindset Breaking Barriers   In the journey of life, our beliefs shape our reality. Limiting beliefs, often ingrained in our minds from past experiences or external influences, can hold us back from reaching our full potential. These beliefs create barriers that hinder personal growth and success. However, with the right strategies and mindset, it is possible to overcome these limitations and cultivate a positive outlook on life. Here are some effective strategies to help you break free from limiting beliefs and foster a positive mindset:   1. Awareness and Identification: The first step in overcoming limiting beliefs is to become aware of them. Pay attention to your thoughts and notice any recurring patterns of self-doubt or negativity. Identify the beliefs that are holding you back and acknowledge their presence.   2. Challenge Your Beliefs: Once you have identified your limiting beliefs, challenge them. Ask yourself if these beliefs are based on facts or assumptions. Consider alternative perspectives and evidence that contradict these beliefs. This process can help you realize that your beliefs are not absolute truths.   3. Replace Negative Thoughts with Positive Affirmations: Replace negative self-talk with positive affirmations. Affirmations are positive statements that can help reprogram your subconscious mind. Repeat affirmations such as "I am capable," "I am deserving of success," or "I believe in myself" to reinforce a positive mindset.   4. Practice Gratitude: Cultivate a mindset of gratitude by focusing on the positive aspects of your life. Keep a gratitude journal and write down things you are grateful for each day. This practice can help shift your focus from what you lack to what you have, fostering a more positive outlook.   5. Visualize Success: Visualization is a powerful tool for overcoming limiting beliefs. Create a clear mental image of yourself achieving your goals and living the life you desire. Visualizing success can help build confidence and belief in your abilities.   6. Seek Support: Surround yourself with positive and supportive individuals who believe in you. Share your goals and aspirations with them, and seek their encouragement and advice. A strong support system can help you stay motivated and overcome self-doubt.   7. Take Action: Overcoming limiting beliefs requires action. Break down your goals into smaller, manageable steps and take consistent action towards them. Celebrate your progress along the way, no matter how small, to reinforce a positive mindset.   8. Embrace Failure as a Learning Opportunity: Failure is a natural part of the journey towards success. Instead of seeing failure as a confirmation of your limiting beliefs, see it as a learning opportunity. Reflect on what you can learn from the experience and use it to grow stronger.   9. Practice Self-Compassion: Be kind to yourself as you work to overcome limiting beliefs. Treat yourself with the same compassion and understanding that you would offer to a friend facing similar challenges. Remember that it's okay to make mistakes and that you are worthy of self-love.   10. Seek Professional Help if Needed: If you find it challenging to overcome limiting beliefs on your own, consider seeking the help of a therapist or counselor. A mental health professional can provide you with the tools and support you need to develop a positive mindset.   By implementing these strategies into your daily life, you can gradually overcome limiting beliefs and cultivate a positive mindset. Remember that change takes time and effort, but with persistence and determination, you can break free from the barriers that hold you back and create a more fulfilling and successful life.

Today we've got a true innovator in the house. We're talking with Britt West, executive vice president and general manager of Spirit of Gallo. If you're not familiar with Gallo's spirits division, it has quietly become one of the most formidable portfolios in bev alc. Over the past 6 years, Britt led the division up the ranks from the No. 8 spirits supplier by volume to No. 3. And that's largely due to its innovation program, with products like High Noon.  As many listeners will know, High Noon is now the top-selling spirits brand by volume in America, just 4 years after its launch. And that's rounded out by Gallo's other innovation products like New Amsterdam Vodka, Pink Whitney, and Camarena Tequila, all of which have new-to-category angles. Add to that Gallo's investment and acquisition brands like Condesa Gin and Don Fulano Tequila, to further fuel the flames. Britt is a rare talent in the spirits biz, with a broad yet super focussed background. He has a Master's in Hospitality from Cornell and an MBA — as well as a background managing nightclubs. He was a successful entrepreneur who created a brand, Eppa Sangria, which got acquired; now he looks for brands to acquire. Today at Gallo, he makes multi-billion dollar decisions but still visits bottle shops in Brooklyn and bars in Mexico City to keep his finger on the pulse of trends.    This unique background has helped him instill a creative and entrepreneurial ethos at Spirit of Gallo, where the team is encouraged to take big swings and fail. Importantly, we discuss why failure matters. As Britt says, “When you know what not to do, it becomes clear what to do." Key takeaways: Innovation and Consumer Insights >> Quickly market test and get real-time consumer feedback — not focus group feedback. Embrace Failure >> Celebrate and learn from failure to innovate and make better decisions. Family-Owned Competitive Advantage >> Gallo's team can focus on growth and innovation free from the pressures of quarterly financial reporting. Organizational Focus >> Leveraging Gallo's strong salesforce has been instrumental in turning new products into market leaders. Consumer-Centric Approach >> Product development and acquisition decisions are driven by understanding consumer needs and behaviors.  Target Specific Consumer Segments >> Gallo's launch of brands like VMC and Condesa Gin reflects a targeted approach towards specific demographics, such as the growing Hispanic population in the U.S. Adaptability and Market Awareness >> Stay adaptable and aware of market trends, like the recent rise of Soju among diverse consumer groups.

Hey everyone! In this episode of Your Ultimate Life, I'm tackling a topic that's close to my heart: excuses. For years, I let excuses hold me back from living the life I desired. But I've learned that excuses are nothing more than an existential threat to our hopes and dreams. They keep us stuck in mediocrity and prevent us from reaching our full potential.Excuses: The Silent Dream KillersExcuses come in all shapes and sizes. They can be as simple as "I'm too tired" or as complex as "I'm not good enough." But no matter what form they take, excuses all have one thing in common: they rob us of our power. When we make excuses, we give away our agency and allow external circumstances to dictate our lives.Your Divine Right to HappinessYou have a divine right to happiness, success, and joy. But these rights don't come in an Amazon box. They are created through action. When we fall into the trap of "I'll be happy when..." we delay our happiness and give our power away to external circumstances.Embrace Failure as a Stepping StoneFailure is not the end of the road. It's simply a data point, an opportunity to learn and grow. Don't let setbacks discourage you. Instead, embrace them as valuable lessons on your journey to success.The Power of PerspectiveHow we perceive our circumstances can either empower us or hold us back. When faced with a challenge, ask yourself, "How else can I look at this situation?" This simple question can open up new possibilities and solutions.Choose Joy, NowYou don't have to wait for the perfect moment to be happy. Choose joy now, regardless of your circumstances or goals. Happiness is an inside job, and it's available to you in this very moment.Action is AccelerationThe key to overcoming excuses and achieving your goals is to take action. Direct, consistent, motivated action is the fuel that propels you towards your dreams. Don't let fear or doubt hold you back. Start small, celebrate your wins, and keep moving forward.Remember: You have the power to create your ultimate life. Don't let excuses stand in your way.Action Steps:Identify your excuses: What are your go-to excuses for not taking action?Challenge your excuses: Are they really true?

Today, we're diving into a topic on how to become more self-confident, especially if you struggle with anxiety. Self-confidence is a quality we all desire, but for those of us with anxiety, it can seem particularly elusive. Let's explore how to cultivate self-confidence, even when anxiety is a persistent part of your life. Understanding Self-Confidence First, let's clarify what self-confidence actually is. Many people mistake it for arrogance or an inflated sense of self. True self-confidence, however, is a deep trust in your own abilities, strengths, and judgment, even when faced with adversity. Anxiety can often undermine this trust, making us feel uncertain and vulnerable. But self-confidence is not something you're born with—it's something you develop over time. Debunking Myths About Self-Confidence Myth 1: Self-confidence is Innate One common misconception is that self-confidence is an inherent trait. This couldn't be further from the truth. Self-confidence is a skill that can be nurtured and grown with practice and perseverance. Myth 2: Success Equals Confidence Another myth is that self-confidence only comes after achieving certain milestones or successes. While accomplishments can boost confidence, they are not the sole source. True confidence is built through the process, not just the outcomes. Myth 3: Confident People Don't Have Anxiety It's a widespread belief that confident people are free from anxiety. In reality, confident individuals often face anxiety just like anyone else. The difference lies in their willingness to face their fears and grow through the experience. Building Self-Confidence: Practical Steps Embrace Challenges Self-confidence grows from facing and overcoming difficult situations. Initially, the thought of tackling a tough challenge can be overwhelming, but each experience strengthens your trust in your ability to handle adversity. Practice Feeling Your Emotions Confidence isn't about the absence of fear but rather the ability to feel and manage your emotions effectively. By practicing feeling emotions like fear, inadequacy, or shame, you become more comfortable and resilient in facing them. Identify Specific Scenarios Pinpoint the situations where you feel least confident. Reflect on what emotions these scenarios evoke and work on becoming more comfortable with those feelings. For example, if public speaking makes you anxious, practice feeling that anxiety in smaller, controlled settings until it becomes more manageable. Cognitive and Behavioral Strategies Cognitive Restructuring Changing your thoughts can significantly impact your confidence. Instead of telling yourself, “I'm going to fail,” try affirmations like, “I'm prepared and capable.” This shift in mindset can reduce anxiety and boost your self-assurance. Behavioral Exposure Facing your fears head-on through repeated exposure can be incredibly effective. For example, if public speaking terrifies you, join a group like Toastmasters, or practice in front of friends and family. Repetition helps desensitize you to the fear and builds confidence in your abilities. Reflect and Learn After facing a fear, take time to reflect on the experience. Ask yourself, “What did I learn?” This reflection helps you identify areas for improvement and reinforces your ability to handle challenging situations. Embrace Failure as a Learning Tool Failure is an inevitable part of growth. Instead of viewing failure as a negative outcome, see it as an opportunity to learn and improve. The more you fail and learn from those failures, the more confident you become in your abilities. Conclusion Self-confidence is a journey, not a destination. It involves embracing challenges, feeling your emotions, and learning from both successes and failures. Remember, today is a beautiful day to do the hard thing. Face your fears, practice self-compassion, and celebrate your progress along the way. Have a great day, everyone, and keep building that self-confidence! TRANSCRIPTION:  Hello and welcome back. I'm so happy you're here. Today we are talking about how to become more self-confident, especially if you're someone who has anxiety.  Self-confidence is something that a lot of people talk about. It's something we all want more of. But if you are someone who has anxiety, you might actually find that being self-confident is really, really hard. So I'm here today to talk with you about how you can become more self-confident even if anxiety is here. Let's do it.  First of all, what is this thing called self-confidence? Some people think that it's like thinking really highly of yourself and that you think you're the coolest—sort of arrogance—but that is not the definition of self-confidence. Self-confidence is a deep trust in your own abilities, your own strengths, your own capabilities, and your own judgment in the face of adversity. I get it. When we have anxiety, it's very hard to feel that sense of trust. In fact, I think anxiety can sometimes make us feel like we can't trust anything. We're in a heightened state of fight, flight, freeze, and fawn.  What we want to do today is take a look at how we can improve self-confidence in the face of anxiety. Now, in order to do that, we first have to look at some of the myths about self-confidence. A lot of people think that self-confidence is just something that you're born with, and that could not be further from the truth. Self-confidence is something we grow over time. Other people believe that self-confidence is something you get once you've achieved something, like you've achieved some success, or you've lost enough weight. That was me when I had an eating disorder. When I've finished a course, then I can feel confident. Or, when I've done enough practice, then I can feel confident. I understand that. However, that if-then statement creates a lot of opportunities for us to feel out of control and like it's something that we can't create on our own. I actually want to really take that idea away and lean towards another strategy.  Another common myth about self-confidence is that some people have it and some people don't, and that it's like an inherent piece of who we are—also not true. Anyone can work toward being confident. We have a lot of evidence. You probably know someone who's really, really confident, and you don't even think that they are warranted to have that much confidence—again, proof that we can grow self-confidence. It's something that you can have that doesn't require a certain accolade or level of success. It's something that we can take on. Again, we are not using it in a way to hurt other people or to make other people feel bad. That's actually not self-confidence. That's usually coming from a place of insecurity.  Another myth is that confident people don't have anxiety—also not true. Confident people are as afraid, if not maybe even more afraid, than the average person on the street. I don't want us to believe that confident people don't bring anxiety to the table, and we are going to take a look at how we can work with that.  Let's now talk about how you can become more confident. Here's the thing. As I have gone through some very difficult things, at the beginning of going through those difficult things, I too was overwhelmed with thoughts like, ‘I can't handle it.' ‘I don't have what it takes.' ‘This is going to destroy me.' ‘This is going to ruin me.' It's like I'm just going to implode with this degree of suffering.  But what I found was that once I had been through that difficult season, I felt more confident. It wasn't that I succeeded in it, though. It's not that I conquered all during that difficult turbulence season. There was a different shift towards, again, trusting that I could handle hard things. Often we go into hard, scary things, saying, “If I only had been through this before, well, then I would feel confident.” But that's actually not true.  A lot of self-confidence is your ability to feel the feelings you will have to feel when you do that hard thing, not the actual doing of the hard thing. The more we practice feelings of fear, threat, inadequacy, shame, or whatever it might be, the more we're comfortable, open, and caring in feeling those feelings. That's how we begin to feel self-confident in any situation, whether we've been through it before or not.  I had a friend who once told me that a very, very dear loved one, actually a child, had been through cancer. I had said to her, “How are you doing?” She said, “Oh, I've been through cancer. Nothing can take me down.” But what she meant by that is that it's not that everything was in comparison to cancer; it's that she had mastered feeling her feelings as she navigated something really, really difficult. She could go through something completely different. But because she's already committed and gone through the willingness to have some really uncomfortable feelings, she had a sense of self-confidence, like, ‘I could handle anything at all.' What I want you to think about here is, what are the things that you don't feel confident about? What specifically are the situations, the scenarios, and the times in your life where you don't feel confident? And then I want to ask you, what would you have to be willing to feel, and what would you have to build comfortability feeling in order to feel confident doing that thing? It's just a question. Sometimes it's like, “Oh, to be confident doing my exposure, I'd have to be confident feeling uncertainty.” “Oh, to go through seeing my child struggle, I'd have to be confident feeling maybe guilt or maybe sadness.” “Maybe to handle my parents' aging, I'd have to be able to confidently and willingly feel grief.” Ask yourself these questions because they can help us identify the emotion that we need to practice feeling on purpose.  Now, when it comes to creating self-confidence, there are two ways we can target it. I talk to my clients about this all the time. We can create self-confidence by changing our thoughts, or we can create self-confidence by changing our behaviors. Let's talk about creating or changing our thoughts. Let's say you have something you need to do that's creating a lot of anxiety. Maybe you have to do a public speaking event. You have a lot of anxiety. You could do some cognitive restructuring by changing your thoughts. Instead of saying, “You're going to fail and this is going to be terrible,” you could practice saying, “It's going to go great,” or “I feel like I know my stuff, I'll be able to do it.” These are great strategies. We could use that.  Another strategy would be, if you have a fear of public speaking, go and do lots of public speaking, Maybe you would join Toastmasters. Maybe you would rehearse it in front of your family, your neighbors, or your colleagues. You would practice doing this behavior over and over and over again with repetition.  These are two very good ways to help with confidence building. However, let's compare and contrast them. Let's say that before this public speaking event, you spent a lot of time doing cognitive restructuring. “I'm going to do great. I'm going to do great. Nothing's going to go wrong,” which we don't actually know is true. But the thing is, when you walk up onto that stage, you don't have a lot of proof that it is going to go well. You don't have a lot of proof. If it doesn't go well, you mightn't leave there with a ton of confidence. However, if you're somebody who instead practices facing that fear over and over and over and over again, as you go to walk onto that stage because you've changed your behavior repeatedly and you've practiced, you actually have trust in your ability. You have trust in your capability to feel fear. You know what fear feels like, you've practiced feeling it, and therefore you're a little bit desensitized, or you're a little bit feeling a sense of mastery over that feeling, and you are able to walk up onto that stage. My advice is that the better way, the more superior way to build self-confidence, is to practice facing that emotion as much as you can. In exposure and response prevention, which we use as the gold standard treatment for OCD and many other anxiety disorders, we've practiced facing fears over and over. What clients often tell me is, “I actually start to feel confident doing that thing. I start to feel confident taking flights. I'm starting to feel confident going to the post office. I'm starting to feel confident driving my car by actually doing the thing.”  The real moral of the story here is that confidence comes from repeatedly facing the thing that is hard for you. Identifying the specific emotion that makes it more difficult and practicing being willing to have that feeling. Now, here is where, going back to that cognitive changing of your thoughts, it might be very, very beneficial, particularly at the end of when you faced your fear. Meaning, after you faced your fear, you can actually stop and go, “What did I learn? What did I learn about facing my fear?” Let's say the public speaking example. You go up in front of your partner, your mom, or your dog, and you present your presentation. You might say, “I learned that I don't know the script well enough,” or “I learned that I'm still anxious, but I can handle the anxiety.” “I learned that when I have anxiety, I beat myself up.” Oh, interesting. So we have an opportunity to make another tweak in behaviors because if beating yourself up doesn't work—PS, it never does—then we might want to change our behavior in that area. The next time we're going to go and do that presentation, we're going to work at not beating ourselves up this time. What else did we learn? “I learned that my body didn't explode when I gave the presentation to my dog and then to my mom and then to my neighbor.” We're starting to learn things, and we're starting to change the way we think because we changed our behavior.  This is a really great strategy for anyone. There's, again, an important cognitive era that we have that gets in our way of building self-confidence, and it's this: “I'm a failure if it doesn't go well.” This belief and this thought could create so much suffering. If I can leave you with one core thing to keep in your back pocket as you practice this, it's that we need to fail a lot of times to get confident. We need to fail a lot of times to be good at something. That doesn't mean there's something wrong with us.  I create these podcasts and these YouTube videos all the time. I sucked at them when I first started, but I didn't stop, and I didn't say, “That's because I'm terrible at it.” It basically meant I had some learning to do. I had some practice to do, and it's okay to suck at things until you get better. The only way I got better was by doing it over and over and over again. I got a little more comfortable and a little more confident in myself as I strategized how I could tweak it a little bit to be better and not be like, “When I'm better, I'll feel good about this.” Again, that's a myth. Self-confident people still have anxiety. They just bring it with them, and they know in their hearts that there's no emotion I'm not willing to feel. Again, as we get better at this, we can start to have a sense of mastery over the emotions that we have to feel.  Another thing I want you to think about here is if, as you do these scary things, you feel guilt, self-criticism, and shame. What we want to do is soften around that emotion, not add to it and be like, “Oh yeah, you're right. I am the worst. I'm terrible. This is the worst thing ever. I'm bad and I shouldn't be doing this and all the things.” Instead, we want to soften into it and change our belief around failure and learning and say, “It's okay. I'm not bad at this. It's okay that I'm not perfect at this.”  Everyone starts at zero. The people with a million followers on Instagram originally started with zero followers. The people who win Olympic awards in races were once not the fastest runner. They were once in their school and maybe getting beaten by people in their elementary school, high school, or college. We all start somewhere at the beginning, so give yourself permission to start at the beginning. Don't let yourself give up trying a couple of times, and expect yourself to feel confident. Confidence comes from the repetition of doing the thing and practicing having the emotion that is uncomfortable in relation to that task or activity.  That is where I want you to change the way you think of self-confidence. It's how I want you to change the way you lean into a task and an emotion as you do that task. I also want to remind you that today is a beautiful day to do the hard thing. This is why I say it on almost every episode. Today is a beautiful day for you to do the hard thing. I want you to go on after that thing that you want to do and practice this. Let the anxiety come, let whatever emotion come. I'm so impressed and proud of you for trying.  Have a great day, everyone.

In a world filled with challenges, setbacks, and obstacles, there is one fundamental truth that separates those who succeed from those who falter: the unwavering commitment to never give up. It is the very essence of what makes us human – the ability to rise above adversity, to push beyond our limits, and to persevere in the face of overwhelming odds. Life is not about waiting for the storm to pass; it's about learning to dance in the rain. It's about embracing the challenges that come our way, seeing them not as barriers but as opportunities for growth and self-discovery. It's about understanding that failure is not the opposite of success but rather an integral part of the journey towards it. When we refuse to give up, we tap into a reservoir of strength and resilience that we never knew we possessed. We become the architects of our own destiny, the masters of our own fate. We learn that our greatest limitations are not external but internal, and that by shifting our mindset, we can overcome any obstacle that stands in our way. The power of perseverance is not just a platitude; it is a fundamental law of the universe. It is the force that propels us forward, that drives us to keep going even when every fiber of our being is telling us to quit. It is the key to unlocking our full potential and achieving the extraordinary. So, my friends, I urge you to embrace the power of never giving up. To see every challenge as an opportunity, every setback as a stepping stone towards greatness. To understand that the only true failure is the failure to keep trying, to keep pushing, to keep believing in yourself and your dreams. In this episode, we will explore the ten essential lessons that will help you cultivate a resilient mindset and never give up on your journey towards success. Together, we will learn to harness the power of perseverance, to stay focused on our goals, and to keep moving forward no matter what life throws our way.
