Richard Nugent (Richard Nugent)
Business coach, an expert in motivation and leadership. He worked in a variety of business fields, including sports. His clients included companies Tesco and Lego, as well as the players of the Premier League clubs.
About the advantages of self-confidence can argue for a long time: it is easier to find a job, to follow through, do not regret infinitely error, to build trust in the family and at work. There remains only one question: how to become more self-confident? The answer to it gives Nugent in his book.
For most people the confidence - this is the result of circumstances. When everything is smooth and well, there is confidence; when you get into a difficult situation - the self disappears. But this is the wrong attitude: life is too changeable and can so nothing really not to do while waiting for greenhouse conditions.
Nugent's position on the issue of confidence is more practical.
Confidence is not a gift that you have or do not have. Confidence - it's work. You either do it or not.
If regarded as the emotional state of confidence, there are principles that help to enter into it. In fact, 50 of the book of life hacking - it is 50 ways to start a natural mechanism of confidence.
How to overcome your fears
The main obstacle on the path to self - fears and phobias, which each of us enough. Fear of making the wrong decision, fear of appearing ridiculous and absurd fear to speak... fear itself - it's not bad. It is a natural reaction of the body to a non-standard situation. Get rid entirely impossible and unlikely to need from him.
But at some point you realize that the fear does not allow to achieve the goals. Then your primary goal - to put their phobias aside, at least temporarily and focus on what really matters.
Three secrets about the fear that you will learn from this book:
- You feel fear, but if you imagine that everything will go wrong and something goes wrong.
- Afraid at the time of the events is impossible. If something bad has already happened, you experience different feelings. Or fear that is not associated with what had just happened.
- You can not feel fear, imagining that situation or event successfully resolved and all will end well.
Where is the "muscle of the right decisions"
All major decisions in my life have been taken without any hesitation. Easier for me to make a decision that changes all his life, deciding that I would be on the dessert.
Tony Hawk (Tony Hawk), an athlete
Confident people are able to defend their decisions, and therefore quickly take them. How to develop the ability to make decisions? That's right, take them as much as possible. Suppose you will make mistakes and sometimes tormented with doubts, but otherwise this is not a skill to develop.
In making decisions reflection not only does not help, but also confusing. So do not get hung up or try to carefully weigh the pros and cons. You can not choose between the two garments in the store? Buy any. You do not know where to go on holidays? Choose the option that comes first in alphabetical order. Think that a drink tonight? Drink a drink, first comes to mind.
Finally
The author compares the book with the most enjoyable and rich menu than with uniform mandatory meals. In each chapter, you can find a valuable idea, but some of them will be important for you.
Deep, genuine confidence can change the world.
