Break the Cycle: Conquering the Urge to Quit On Yourself
Hey there!
As a personal development coach, parent, and holistic well-being advocate, I believe that setting and accomplishing goals is a powerful tool for enhancing self-esteem and improving mental and physical health. Pursuing your goals provides a sense of purpose and motivation that leads to long-term fulfillment and healthy confidence.
Conversely, quitting on your goals repeatedly reinforces a self-defeating message in your subconscious, which can adversely affect your ability to face future challenges and achieve your full potential.
According to self-efficacy theorist Albert Bandura, the belief in your ability to achieve a particular goal or task plays a significant role in your motivation and behavior. When you repeatedly abandon your goals without developing the necessary skillsets, it erodes your sense of self-efficacy, which ultimately results in reduced confidence.
This, in turn, leads to increased self-doubt, which questions your abilities and self-worth, affecting...
True Confidence: The Two-Step Rule to Improve Your Performance and Drive
Self-Honesty and Introspection are two rules I live by. I consider these to be two of the most powerful tools to build confidence and improve performance in all areas of life. By making an honest assessment of your strengths, your weaknesses, your values, and your beliefs, you will start to see yourself more clearly; this is known as self-awareness. The key benefits behind this ancient practice are widely documented.
My favorite benefits rely on the following notion: high levels of self-awareness strongly correlate with increased confidence and drive, better decision-making skills, and long-term personal/spiritual fulfillment. The best tools for personal growth usually already exist within ourselves; we just might not know their value. Here are the five steps I practice to heighten True Internal Confidence in myself and others:
Step 1: Start with self-reflection
Introspection involves taking the time to reflect on your thoughts,...

The Trek Upward: The Effects of Right Thinking
What is the meaning of purposely serving others?
Let us explore this question from the context of giving and receiving. Let's focus here on what is the difference in the spiritual value gained when we freely give our time, our money, and our support? For example when we acknowledge a stranger who cries unconsolably on a busy city street and no one else does. On the other hand, what is the spiritual value gained when we openly receive from others? For example, when we receive kind gestures of support if we're feeling down, or when we receive a check in the mail from a friend who knows we're in a difficult financial situation.
I've come to experience giving and receiving to be the same thing but of different polarity. Giving and receiving are understood as separate only because of the direction in which the action of love or energy is flowing. I have pondered of late, many of the childhood principles I learned and openly accepted as being true. One...
