Quick Tip #44 Take The Damn Selfie
“The quickest way to acquire self-confidence is to do exactly what you’re afraid to do.”
One day you wake up in the morning, get dressed, and walk past your mirror. You catch a glimpse of yourself, and you think, "damn, I'm kinda cute. Let me take a picture!". Feeling yourself, you take your phone out and start taking all the selfies. As you flip through the footage, your selfies are dope af! So you open up Instagram, load them up, and just as you're about to hit the post button, something happens. All of a sudden, you start to think:
I shouldn't post this. What if I don't get "enough" likes
Damn, I should take this down; I still haven't lost any of pandemic weight. I don't want anyone to see me like this.
Why am I posting this? I don't want my followers to think that I think I'm the ish.
And so you don't hit publish and just let your selfie sit on your phone until the end of time. Not to get all deep, but sometimes not posting our selfies or sharing our content is a telltale sign of a lack of confidence. Do you hide when it's time to market your business? Dim your light out of fear of outshining others. Silence yourself when it's time to share your story? I wonder what would happen if you were to own your greatness? To post whatever you wanted whenever the hell you felt like it. Wouldn't it feel good to finally be able to show up and not be ashamed of who you are and what you have to offer? So in today's Quick Tip, I'm challenging all #GoalGetters to post the damn selfie even when it feels cringe because small steps like that will help you be the bold, confident, capable, and talented #GoalGetter you are.
