In every podcast, she says something that resonates with me that I have to pause the show and reflect. I always walk away from her podcasts filled with positivity and encouragement. I highly recommend her podcast. REASONS WE STRUGGLE WITH CONFIDENCE IN THE WORKPLACE Traditional Careers: We wait to be discovered. We label environments "toxic" too quickly and don't manage our minds. We settle for less than what we want. We get pulled into complaint culture. We buy into the separation of departments and forget the value we bring. We don't commit to being the best employee in the building. We forget to ask for what we want. We play smaller than we need to. We care too much what people think. We second-guess our career choice and live in the past. We fantasize about other workplaces and companies. We don't ask for new opportunity or increased pay. We think we can't be ourselves. We want the group to like us and we get distracted by things that don't matter. We lose sight of the value of the work we do, even if in thankless or unnoticed tasks. We allow self-pity to keep our attitudes from being excellent. Entrepreneur Careers: We try to copy what everyone else is doing. We put too much attention in social media instead of email nurturing. We obsess over the product instead of mastering the offer. We personalize rejection and want success to be easy. We compare our step 10 with someone else's step 100. We measure our worth by our income and get too in the weeds of the numbers. We don't set our beliefs with focused intention. We aren't hyper-focused on creating change for our customers - it becomes too much about us. We get distracted by new courses, strategies and learning. We see the green grass of other methods and forget to water our own.
