I think one of the most important things I understand about self doubt is that we all have it. We all have a piece of doubt within ourselves, before we move forward. We all second guess some of our decisions, it’s normal.
The reason I think self doubt gets in the way is because we assume that we’re not supposed to have it before we take the next step. We assume that people around us are so confident and don’t have this type of doubt, that we must doing something wrong before we move forward, but that’s not the case.
We’re supposed to feel the doubt but move forward anyways. We can’t wait until we’re ready, we have to just take the first step.
We all have insecurities, that’s natural, and that’s normal. We’re never going to get rid of them for as long we’re alive. We have to work despite them, around them, with them, and through them. As opposed to waiting until we’re completely confident to do something, because that’s not going to happen.
The more we practice on things the more confident we’ll become at something. In the meantime we have to keep moving forward. We can talk ourselves out of doing stuff, because it’s scary. We can talk ourselves out of doing stuff because it will make us uncomfortable. These are the roots of self doubt.
There’s no magic pill, there’s no magic word to make you get rid of it and visibly be confident. You have to work on it and it’s going to be a life long process. So don’t let self doubt get in the way because understand that self doubt is a natural part of life and it’s a normal feeling. There’s nothing wrong with you for feeling it, everybody else feels it. Some people just hide it better than others.
