Self Confidence Formula

✨ Corie’s Blog | FIT TIPS ✨

If we want to be happy or successful, we need a humble but reasonable confidence in our own power and ability to be happy or successful.

If we feel that we don’t deserve to be happy or successful, we never will be.

If we feel that we aren’t important enough to be happy or successful, we never will be.

But if we feel confident in our power to be happy and successful, we sure as heaven will be.

Believe in yourself! Have faith that you can accomplish anything you put your mind to.

A tool I use to feel more confident in my power is the Self-Confidence Formula shared in Think & Grow Rich by Napoleon Hill. I’ve attached it below for your reference 🙂

  1. I know that I have the ability to achieve the object of my Definite Purpose in life. Therefore I demand of myself persistent, continuous action toward its attainment, and I here and now promise to take such action.
  2. I realize the dominating thoughts of my mind will eventually reproduce themselves in outward, physical action and gradually transform themselves into physical reality. Therefore I will concentrate my thoughts for 30 minutes daily upon the task of thinking of the person I intend to become, thereby creating in my mind a clear mental picture of that person.
  3. I know through the principle of Autosuggestion that any desire I persistently hold in my mind will eventually seek expression through some practical means of attaining the object. Therefore I will devote 10 minutes daily to demanding of myself the development of self-confidence.
  4. I have clearly written down a description of my Definite Chief Aim in life. I will never stop trying until I have developed sufficient self-confidence for its attainment.
  5. I fully realize that no wealth or position can long endure unless built upon truth and justice. Therefore I will engage in no transaction that does not benefit all whom it affects. I will succeed by attracting to myself the forces I wish to use, and the corporation of other people. I will induce others to serve me because of my willingness to serve others. I will eliminate hatred, envy, jealousy, selfishness, and cynicism by developing love for all humanity because I know that a negative attitude towards others can never bring me success. I will cause others to believe in me, because I will believe in them, and in myself. I will sign my name to this formula, commit it to memory and repeat it aloud once a day, with full faith that it will gradually influence my thoughts and actions so that I will become a self-reliant and successful person.

Having faith and confidence in yourself can be developed through repetition of thought.

Take time to think and grow rich!

Ask more questions

✨ Corie’s Blog | FIT TIPS ✨

Feeling stuck? Asking more questions can help give us clarity.

What do you see for your life?

Who do you want to be?

Who and what do you need to surround yourself with?

What kind of energy do you want in your circle?

Are you going with what others want?

Are you living for other people, trying to please their expectations?

Are you challenging the “norm” and doing things differently?

Are you asking questions, trying to make the best life for yourself?

General, Healthy Habits

Easy to do, easy not to do

✨ Corie’s Blog | FIT TIPS ✨

Brushing our teeth.

Taking a shower.

Eating the right foods.

Drinking enough water.

Exercising.

Reaching out to friends and family.

Giving thanks.

Breathing deeply.

Reading a few pages.

Documenting.

Saying yes to things that bring us joy.

Saying no to things that drain our energy.

These things like many others are easy to do, and easy not to do.

Day after day, we have the choice: to do or not to do.

And what we decide creates our life.

Healthy Habits

Make time to be creative

✨ Corie’s Blog | FIT TIPS ✨

When was the last time you created?

Building something out of nothing.

Finding a solution to a problem.

Doing art, organizing, writing, thinking.

Are you living day to day neglecting your creative muscle?

Or are you making the time to ponder and build?

Goals

How do you deal?

✨ Corie’s Blog | FIT TIPS ✨

When something bothers you, how do you deal with it?

Do you stomp your feet?

Do you accept without resistance?

Do you pop off at the first sign of opposition?

Or do you keep your reactions in line with your values?

Growing up, my mom taught me to express myself physically and verbally (the Philly attitude that we all know and love lol) but as I got older I realized that I can choose how I react… and my life changed forever.

I don’t get into altercations with others like I did before, things that used to bother me no longer have the same effect. My life is evolving for the better because my reactions are better.

I now take a second to breathe and think how I want to respond. I accept and do what I can in the moment. I try to see it from all sides. And I try to hold compassion and empathy forefront.

So how do you deal?

Goals

Taking a walk

✨ Corie’s Blog | FIT TIPS ✨

Hearing wind chimes, birds, lawn mowers.

Smelling fresh air, the flowers and greenery.

Seeing houses, cars, people, stores, streets, animals, plants.

Feeling my phone in my hand, champ’s leash on my arm, and socks on my feet. Also feeling grateful, a little hungry, sweaty, and inspired.

Tasting peppermint.

Thinking about the moment. Grounding myself in the now.

Goals

Progress over perfection

✨ Corie’s Blog | FIT TIPS ✨

Ben Franklin implemented a values chart.

On the chart, he listed the habits he’d strive to do on the daily.

If he didn’t do a habit that day, he would make a small red x.

He started to see the habits that were easier than others to implement and adjusted accordingly.

The values chart is something to live up to however when we fail to do something, we have the opportunity to learn and grow.

And that’s the purpose of the values chart.

To lay out what we’d like to do, realize what we actually do / don’t do, and build a plan to bridge the gap.

The values chart isn’t about getting each day perfect, although that is the ultimate goal.

Goals

Embrace the day

✨ Corie’s Blog | FIT TIPS ✨

Where do you find yourself now?

Maybe in a park, at home, at work.

How are you feeling?

Content? Present?

Uneasy? Anxious?

Is there anything you can do to make the very best of this moment?

Like taking a deep breath, showing gratitude, feeling joy, being creative, smiling.

Goals

You are everything you need

✨ Corie’s Blog | FIT TIPS ✨

No matter what you’re going through…

You have the power to redirect your thinking.

You can think about what you’re grateful for.

You can think about peace and love.

You can think about ideas and concepts.

You can think about your own point of view.

When times get tough, let’s look inward and change the narrative.

Goals

Save for later

✨ Corie’s Blog | FIT TIPS ✨

You’re browsing Amazon and see something you like.

* add to cart *

After you do a little shopping, you now may have a couple things in your cart.

The total price is high too.

Before going straight to check out…

Let’s go through each item again to see if you really like it.

But wait, do you need it right now?

If not, save it for later.

Then close the app. Come back tomorrow.

I literally have 55 things saved for later in my Amazon cart from doing this.

Imagine my poor wallet if bought everything I liked impulsively like I used to.
