Evidence-Based Confidence Building Techniques
In the video "The Hack to Building Confidence" from Alex Hormozi, confidence without evidence is delusion. The idea that you aren't confident if you don't feel confident right now is okay because the question is, what are you trying to be confident about? Confidence, as a word, is the percentage likelihood that you have that what you think will happen will happen. Like, what is our confidence score on this metric? And so, the same thing applies to a person. What is our confidence that when Johnny says he will do this, it will happen? We have our own confidence metric for ourselves, which is a percentage likelihood that we will do what we say we're going to do. The way that you can increase that confidence is to have more evidence that you've done things when you said you would in the past. I think it's about looking retrospectively and thinking, you know, what story can I tell around this data that would give me more evidence that I actually do have some of these traits that I didn't think about?
Confidence builds from action, not just feelings. To grow your confidence, track your follow-through and acknowledge your achievements. Reflect on your past actions to find proof of your potential.
In his insightful discussion, Alex Hormozi emphasizes that genuine confidence is rooted in evidence, specifically deriving it from past achievements. By reflecting on previous successes and the commitments you've honored, you can cultivate a clearer understanding of your capabilities. This retrospective analysis not only reinforces your self-worth but also enables a more robust self-assurance for future endeavors. Hormoziβs perspective invites you to gather and narrate your accomplishments, transforming them into a solid foundation for building your confidence moving forward.
