Today we’re talking about how to embrace the positivity of confidence, which is the second piece of the tenet Optimistic.

Intentional Optimism - Your Vehicle for Personal Growth:

  1. Optimistic = The hull, the vehicle that gets you from island A to island B.
  2. Present = The centerboard - keeps you upright, focused, centered.
  3. Energetic = The sail - captures & harnesses the wind, propelling you forward.
  4. Courageous = The rigging - holds everything together in proper tension, resilience.
  5. Wise = The rudder - keeps you on track, heading in the right direction.
  6. Intentional = Setting everything up to properly capture the wind.

Topics discussed in this episode:

  • See the glass as half full
  • Certainty
  • You know how

Now what? Start small.

  • DREAM! If you need some inspiration - Confidence In Me - Julie Andrews
  • Choose to see the glass Half Full. Here is Allison Ledgerwood’s TEDx UC Davis talk - Getting Stuck in the Negatives (and how to get unstuck)
  • Pursue Certainty. Every step you take will give you the feedback you need to stay the course or change direction.
  • Believe you know how! Enlist others to help you see your strengths & skills.
