“Confidence is something that ought to transcend what we know and what we do.” ~Barbara
DeAngelis
As you heard me explain in the video, there is ANOTHER type of confidence that is entirely different from competency based confidence.
It's called spiritual confidence.
This is what you need in the areas of your life where skill, knowledge and talent don't count for much.
In the book, "Confidence: Finding It and Living It", Barbara DeAngelis does a beautiful job of explaining the OTHER type of confidence.
“Ultimately, spiritual confidence is a quiet, gentle sense of peace. It fills your heart and nurtures your spirit. It allows you to travel your path knowing that you are on the right road, and trusting that wherever you are is just where you need to be.”
Do you know anyone in your life who seems to have that?
Yeah, most people don't. It's a rare type of confidence that doesn't require demonstrated talent, knowledge or authority.
It's a chosen believe system that tells you that you're actually okay...just as you are right now. You are bullet-proof to the judgments of others and their disapproval.
From this place you can't be "hurt, insulted, controlled, offended or emasculated." You're no longer a victim of external input.
You've got a chosen frame of mind or a "lane" you stay in that supports the truth about your own well-being. You're valuable, lovable and significant EVEN IF someone else is acting like you're not.
