According to renowned Stanford psychology professor Caroline Dweck, the most successful people in life believe that everything develops and grows. They have a growth mindset, which is shown to correlate directly to confidence as challenges are met with optimism in order to improve.
All you have to do is simply rewire your brain to believe that you can absolutely get better at whatever you put your mind and energy toward.
Here are a few tips that will help you in achieving this.
* Identify where your skills are innate or predetermined and formulate an action plan to improve them. Circle the one or two you wish you were better at, and voila, you have a skill worth putting your energy toward.
* Anyone who is great at something has dedicated time and energy toward it.
Everything about you can and will get better with effort. If you track and measure where you started and how you progress, you will be fueled with more encouragement to keep going.
* Stretching is key to knowing that eventually yo will be able to reach the new level you so desire.
Harnessing a growth mindset will remind you that you are not bad, you are just inexperienced and being hard on yourself.
