117: The Neuroscience of Self-Doubt and How to Learn Confidence
This episode of The Bold Life marks the first installment of a special series that I am calling The Neuroscience of Success! Each week, I’ll be sharing a really interesting neuroscience or psychology study and what we discovered about our brains as a result, starting with the topic of this episode – self-doubt and lack of confidence!
Listen in as I focus on how to rewire your brain so you can stop focusing on all your mistakes and build up confidence instead! Cells that fire together wire together, so we need to practice actively focusing more on our wins and less on our mistakes!
My challenge to you this week is just that – to try to make a list of your wins and focus on those rather than your mistakes, and until next time, be sure to check out my Time Freedom Toolkit and to subscribe to the podcast on your favorite podcast app!
