I appreciate you. I love you. And today, we are talking about something that can change your entire life if you apply it, Confidence. And I am going to tell you right out the gate, Confidence isn’t given, it’s grown. Confidence isn’t something you wait on, it is something you build through your actions, your discipline, and the relationship you have with yourself. A lot of people think confidence shows up once life gets easier, once the path is clearer, once fear disappears. No, that is not how confidence works. Confidence is built in the moments when life is unclear, when fear is loud, when doubt is present, and you still choose to show up anyway. You want more confidence? Stop thinking it is something you borrow from people around you. Stop thinking it is something that magically arrives when you hit a certain level. Real confidence, the kind that lasts, comes from one place, Self-respect. And self-respect grows every single time you keep a promise you made to yourself. When you say you are going to show up, and you do. When you say you are going to work on your dreams, and you do. When you say you are going to stop settling, and you actually mean it. Confidence is the byproduct of showing up for you. Let me give you three things that will build confidence starting today. Number one, win the small battles. Confidence isn’t built in huge victories, it is built in small wins repeated daily. Wake up on time. Finish your workout. Make the call. Take the step. Stack enough small wins and you will wake up one day with big confidence. Number two, change the way you talk to yourself. Some of you speak to yourself like an enemy. You tear yourself down. You magnify every flaw. You rehearse every insecurity. But hear me, You cannot build confidence with a destructive inner voice. You have to speak life into your life. Encouragement is not weakness, it is strategy. Number three, stop letting fear lead your life. Confidence doesn’t mean you won’t have fear, it means fear doesn’t get the final say. Stop making decisions based on what scares you and start making decisions based on what grows you. Your comfort zone is safe, but your greatness isn’t found there. Step into the room. Apply for the thing. Share the message. Take the chance. Confidence grows when you move through fear, not around it. And I want to leave you with this, Confidence isn’t loud. Confidence isn’t proving yourself. Confidence is knowing yourself. It is walking into a room with peace because you know who you are, you know what you bring, and you know what you refuse to go back to. So today, decide to build the confidence you have been praying for. Not by waiting for approval, Not by waiting for the perfect moment, But by showing up for you, starting now. It all starts with you. Protect your peace. I love you. RehabTime, let’s get it.
