Confidence Is Fun

When was the last time you really had fun? Take a second right now and really think about it! How much did confidence have to do with it?

Joe Namath once said, "When you have confidence, you can have a lot of fun." But is that really true? Confident of what? 

Have you ever watched children playing? Our granddaughter is 7 and she loves to sing along with songs and videos...but not when someone is watching. She's very confident in herself when no one is looking. Add in an observer and her confidence takes a hit...and it becomes less fun.

You need a certain degree of confidence in order to really dive into something and go all out. And the funny thing is, it's not even confidence in the outcome! You can have a great time playing a game and still lose. It's confidence in yourself to compete...to have a chance! (remember that word, chance)

See, for any victory to be rewarding, there has to be some risk involved, there has to be a chance that you WON'T WIN in order to enjoy the game! When we take the risk away, there is no need for confidence...so in a misguided attempt to build confidence, they've actually taken the confidence from a whole generation! But I digress...

When I'm talking with aspiring business owners in my life and business coaching practice, I hear it all the time, "I want to get all my ducks in a row" or, "dot all my I's and cross all my t's." The reality is not only is that not possible, but you also don't want that!

Confidence is the result of experience. You have to try things to build the confidence you need to win...in little league, in business, and in life! What have you avoided trying lately? Go ahead give it a shot! Win some confidence and have FUN doing it!

Enjoy!
