“Our attitude towards life determines life’s attitude towards us.” We have the power, through our attitude, to bring about success in our life.
It’s normal to have a bad day from time to time. But there is a difference between being in bad mood and having a bad attitude.
But it doesn’t mean you’re not in charge of actively modifying your attitude. At any time, you can take a step back and work towards improving your attitude.
We’re going to take it one step at a time.

It really shouldn’t be that complicated and yet it is. Communicating with your teen is one the most difficult thing you have to do these days.
Teenagehood is a very complicated time for our young ones. They are being told they are now adults and have to behave accordingly. But at the same time, they are still dependent on their family and treated like children.
Having the simplest conversation with them can lead to open-fire conflict without any party knowing where it all came from.
But don’t despair, in this episode, I’m listing a few things you can do to help make things easier for you and your teen at home.

Confidence can be a self-fulfilling prophecy as those without it may fail or not try because they lack it and those with it may succeed because they have it rather than because of an innate ability. Indeed, going to sit an exam fully prepared can go way better if you are confident you studied enough to be ready for it. It helps you be more relaxed and able while sitting.
If despite your work and effort, you go to an exam unsure, the stress will make you lose all your capacity to think.
Instead of focusing on answering the questions, you will be repeating unhelpful and harmful demoralising sentences and creating a panic at each question.
Confidence can become your best friend if you learn how to develop and use it.
In my latest podcast episode, I teach you what confidence really is and how to start developing this skill. You will also learn the difference between confidence and bragging.
