Life is waiting for you each day, and you have to

(00:02):
prepare for each challenge alongthe way toward success.
It's not simple, but it can bedone.
Welcome to my common sensemotivation episodes.
I'm Chris FantasticPow.
Where does confidence come from?
Confidence doesn't come fromluck.
It doesn't fall out of the sky.
It doesn't magically show up onemorning and say, I'm here to

(00:25):
make your life easier.
No, confidence is built, notbought.
Confidence comes from thepromises you keep to yourself.
It comes from those smalldecisions, those tiny private
victories when no one else iswatching.
It's born in the late nightswhen you push a little harder,
and in the early mornings whenyou get up even when you don't

(00:48):
feel like it.
You see, confidence grows everytime you show up for yourself.
Not when things are perfect, butwhen they're not.
Confidence is that quiet voiceinside that says, I've been here
before, I didn't quit last time,and I'm not going to quit today.
It comes from taking risks, fromtrying again after you stumble,

(01:11):
and from choosing disciplineover comfort.
It comes from trusting youreffort, honoring your decisions,
and walking in the direction ofyour goals even when fear taps
you on your shoulder andwhispers to stop.
Confidence isn't a gift, it's aresult.
A result of your actions, aresult of your consistency, a

(01:34):
result of believing that youdeserve more and proving it with
your behavior.
So if you want more confidence,don't wait for it, create it.
By doing the things it takes toalign with your goals, by
repetition learning the skillsand habits you need to acquire.
This is building the brick bybrick attitude and the decisions

(01:55):
it takes for confidence to growin your life.
No one is born confident, theyhave to learn it.
Ask any kid how many times theyfell in order to learn the
confidence to walk.
So build the version of yourselfyou always knew you could be.
Be confident.
Make it happen.
