How Anxiety Can Reduce Confidence
Anxiety often asks:
“What if something goes wrong?”
Then:
You avoid.
Avoidance brings:
Temporary:
Relief.
But:
You miss the opportunity to discover:
“I could have handled that.”
Over time:
Your world:
Can become:
Smaller.
Confidence Is Not the Absence of Anxiety
Confidence does not mean:
Never feeling:
Nervous.
Uncertain.
Uncomfortable.
Or:
Afraid.
Real confidence can mean:
“Even if I feel anxious, I trust myself to deal with what happens next.”

Stop Waiting to Feel Completely Confident

You can:
Handle:
It.

Build:
From:
There.

Fear of What Other People Think
Anxiety can make you constantly:
Monitor:
Yourself.
“Did I sound stupid?”
“What if they don't like me?”

“What do I think?”

Does not mean:
You:

A failure.
