The Power of Finding Your Voice: Overcoming Self-Doubt and Embracing Your True Self

You are already sitting on a mountain of knowledge if you read this.

‍

Many great people have something valuable to share but struggle to put it out there. I have experienced this myself and am still learning.

‍

I read the book "The War of Art" by Steven Pressfield some time ago. In it, he talks about Resistance, a powerful self-generated negative force that can impact our progress.

‍

It is a force of self-sabotaging demons like procrastination, imposter syndrome, self-doubt, laziness, perfectionism, ego, fear, and arrogance.

‍

Once you acknowledge this, you will be in a much better position to fight it. You can then start sharing and putting yourself out there more. 

‍

Here are the steps you can take to change your perspective and start building confidence:

‍

1. Define what makes you (You) nique. Once you start, you'll learn more about yourself, and you can always make changes.

‍

2. Instead of using social media for entertainment, use it as a marketing tool.

‍

3. There are no completely new ideas. However, you can add your unique perspective to existing ones in a certain way.

‍

4. I shifted to intentional consumption rather than just mindless consumption. This will help me create more helpful content.

‍

‍

5. Create a system for capturing ideas, sorting them, and dedicating time to deep work. It may take some time to get started, but don't worry; you will reach a state of flow once you get used to it.

‍

6. Leverage AI tools to assist you in sorting, structuring, and editing your work. Don't worry; there's nothing wrong with using these tools; it's still your idea and perspective.

‍

I understand that it is not easy. If you need any help, please reach out. I am also still learning.

‍

You never know whose life you could impact just by speaking up and sharing your knowledge and experiences.

‍

I have made a social commitment to help myself and at least one person who is one step behind me. 

‍

What is yours?

‍

Until next time.
