Unshakable Confidence: Trusting Yourself

Whew... Ok, this one might ruffle some feathers (insert shoulder shrug). But hey, if building unshakable confidence was easy, everyone and they momma would be doing it. Let’s talk about confidence, like REAL confidence—the kind that doesn’t falter, even when life gets a little shakey and a little chaotic. I hope powerful affirmation will help you unlock that next-level confidence, the kind that comes from deep within, and let me tell you, once you master this, you’ll stop second-guessing yourself and start making moves like the unstoppable badass force that you know are.

The affirmation we’re focusing on today is: "My confidence is unshakable because it comes from within. I trust myself completely, and I will not second-guess my decisions. I know what is best for me, and I will follow my intuition without hesitation. Today, I stand firm in my power."

Here’s the thing about confidence—it’s not about having all the answers or never making mistakes. It’s about trusting yourself enough to know that whatever comes your way, you’ll handle it. (Okay Olivia Pope) And that, my friend, is personal empowerment at its finest.

Tips on Building that Unshakable Confidence:

1. Strengthen Your Self-Trust Building confidence starts with trusting yourself. Stop looking outside for validation and begin to listen to that inner voice. If you’ve been ignoring your intuition, it’s time to tune in. Trust that you know what’s best for you, even if it feels uncomfortable at first.

Step: Every time you make a decision, big or small, check in with yourself. Ask, “What feels right to me?” Then commit to following through without second-guessing.

2. Practice Daily Affirmations Affirmations are a game changer when it comes to reprogramming your mindset. Start each day by saying: “My confidence is unshakable because it comes from within.” This simple practice will train your brain to believe in your personal power.

Step: Write this affirmation on a sticky note and place it where you’ll see it every morning—on your mirror, your phone, spouse's forehead or even your car dashboard.

3. Take Action Without Hesitation Confidence is built through action. When you hesitate, you’re telling yourself you don’t trust your judgment. So stop overthinking and start doing. Even if it’s something small, act on your instincts. The more you act decisively, the more your confidence will grow.

Step: Next time you’re faced with a decision, don’t sit on it. Make your choice and move forward. Remind yourself that indecision is worse than making a mistake, because at least mistakes help you grow.

4. Embrace Failure as Growth Fear of failure is often what shakes our confidence, but the truth is, failing is part of the process. The key is to view failure as feedback, not a reflection of your worth. With each stumble, you get closer to mastering your confidence and power.

Step: After every challenge or setback, ask yourself, “What did I learn from this?” Shift your focus from the mistake to the lesson, and watch how your confidence strengthens.

5. Stand Firm in Your Power Confidence is about owning your power, even when others try to sway you. This means trusting your gut, making choices that align with your values, and not letting outside opinions shake you. Remember, confidence that comes from within cannot be taken away.

Step: Make it a daily practice to affirm your power. Say: “Today, I stand firm in my power,” and carry that energy with you through every decision and interaction.
