#5 KEY - COMMUNITY
Hello my friend, it’s Michael Hutchison again.
Welcome to my FINAL, SOS! message on Being Confident and Thriving, in Turbulent Times.
You now have all the videos in this Confidence Series. You are Almost home.
I am super proud of you, and your extra efforts. Thank you for the privilege to serve you and your family.
The #5 Key to being confident is your Community.
We all need people around us who are supportive, positive and who appreciate our personalities, our strengths and weaknesses.
And, if you don’t have that, you can’t sit there and be a victim saying, “Ooh I just have a bad set of parents. I have a bad set of friends. I guess I’m destined to be around a bunch of people who bring me down”.
No, you go find a new peer group. Go to a virtual event or seminar. Go to the church that’s streaming its service. Go to a volunteer meeting. Go get around people who are positive and who are amazing and making a difference. I invite you to Come lock arms with us at inCruises.
A lot of people will tell you, “Hey, you know what? Just get rid of all those negative people.” But sometimes the negative people in your life are your familiy, your mom or your dad, your lover, your spouse, your upline sponsor or one of your children. You can’t just open the door and say, “Get out of here”. It doesn’t work like that.
It’s not about cutting loose all the negative people, and getting rid of them, though maybe there are some people where you need to set some boundaries and say,
“I don’t need to associate with this person as much in my life anymore. If I do, I don’t need to get so caught up and trapped into their pools of pessimism and negativity.”
What you have to do is say instead,
“If I don’t have the supportive peer group, let me go create that. Let me go find those people and get around them.”
Because, as people are cheering you on as you gain more confidence.
As people are saying, “Hey you’re doing a good job. I believe in you. You are a champion. You are a great person.”
You say to yourself, “Yes I am doing a good job.” You allow yourself to feel that sense of success and sense of integrity, when other people recognize it in you.
Sometimes your greatest confidence is coming from having a community of supporters. So, don’t wait for those supporters to show up, go find them. Go mix. Go mingle with online Groups. Be sure to show interest in others. Get out of the house, live life again. And when you do that, as you live life again, what do you notice?
Let’s review one more time: the more positive decisions the more honesty, more competency more momentum with good people. And suddenly that thing you were hoping one day you would find, the confidence/, you found it! Not only did you find it, you also created it. You are now the confident person you were always meant to be.
Okay my friends, I hope you enjoyed this final SOS video series on Confidence.
