Recipe for Self-Confident

Recipe Writer Expert Author Carmen Watson-Francis

When I think about what builds my confidence, I think about a recipe that can make a delicious meal that is fulfilling to me. Well, I would like to share this recipe with all my professional workers and college students struggling with self-esteem issues and stress in their professional world.

What’s needed in the Recipe is as follows?

1 Cup of Anxiety – I know what you are thinking… Anxiety? Anxiety keeps you on your toes. Anxiety is a good thing in small doses or for short periods because it gives you energy and deepens your emotional tone when communicating to an audience. If this is not how you identify with anxiety? Think of this as an opportunity to explore a perspective shift.

Two cups of Certainty - These two cups of Certainty mean no doubting and no second-guessing yourself while speaking in front of a person or groups of people. Certainty is a risk you are willing to take in your life, career, college life, and relationship. You are worth it!

2 Cups of Safety – Relax your mind and be playful; it will give you more time to be expressive and thoughtful.

Safety is a state of mind that can be cultivated and used when you are nervous and speak in front of your peers or deliver an important message to a large group of professionals.

1 Cup of Gratitude – Keeps you humble and prepares you to show appreciation and kindness to your listeners.

Gratitude is happiness and positivity, good health, and the need to build a stronger relationship.
