Speaker 1 (00:00):
Hey, everyone, Logan Cruz here your friendly neighborhood philosopher. Well,
not a real philosopher, just someone who loves to think
about life. Staff. And let me tell you, intoday's world,
it feels like everyone's chasing after that elusive thing called
self confidence. We see it plastered all over social media, here,
it whispered in motivational speeches. But what does it really mean?
(00:20):
How do we actually build it? Well, I've been digging
into some ancient wism stoicism, and let me tell you
the staff is gold. It's about focusing on what you
can control, accepting what you can, and building resilience like
a freaking Spartan war. But here's the kicker. Stoicism isn't
just about being stoic all the time, though it can
be pretty awesome. It's about using these powerful principles to
(00:43):
build unshakable self confidence from within. So here are five
things you can start doing right now, inspired by stoicism
and sprinkled with a little logo magic, to boost your
confidence like never before. One. Control your thoughts. This one
might sound obvious, but it's so powerful. You know that
feeling when you get caught in a spiral of negative
(01:04):
thoughts like I can do this or I am not
good enough. Stoicism teaches us to recognize these thoughts as
just the thoughts they are in facts. When those pesky
doubts creep in conch, choose to replace them with positive affirmations.
Tell yourself things like I am capable, I am worthy,
I can handle this. Think of it like a mental workout.
(01:26):
You wouldn't let your muscle cut your feet right. Same
goes for your mind to focus on what you can control. Ever,
feel overwhelmed by the chaos of life, news, deadlines, traffic
at never ends, does it, Stoicism reminds us to focus
our energy on what we can actually influence. We can't
control the weather, other people's opinions, or unexpected events, trust me,
(01:49):
I've tried, but we can control our reactions to them.
Very embrace challenges. Think of challenges as opportunities in disguise.
When you face the toxic situation, don't shy away from it.
Step up, meet the challenge head on, and remember that
even if things don't go exactly as planned, you're gaining
valuable experience and learning something new. For back to Gratitude,
(02:13):
this one's a game changer. Taking time each day to
appreciate the good stuff in your life, your health, your
loved ones. A delicious cup of coffee can seriously shift
your minds at When you focus on what you have
rather than what you lack, you naturally cultivate a sense
of contentment and self Forth, I've be kind to yourself. Seriously,
this is crucial. We're our own harsh shritick sometimes right,
(02:37):
soicism encourages us to treat ourselves with the same compassion
and understanding that we would offer a friend. Forgive your mistakes,
celebrate your wens, big or small, and remember that you're
doing the best you can. Now let me paint your picture.
Imagine this, You've got a big presentation coming up, and
your heart is racing like a cheet unkfein doubt, creeps
(02:57):
saying whispering what if I mess up? What if they
think are not good enough? But wait, remember those stoic principles.
You can control how the audience will react, but you
can control your preparation. So you practice your presentation until
it feels like second nature. You visualize yourself delivering it
with confidence and clarity, and when the big day arrives,
(03:19):
instead of letting fear take over you, step out on
the stage and rock it. See what I mean By
applying these stoic ideas, we can shift our mindset from
one of fear and doubt to one of courage and
self relief. It's like leveling up your inner superhero. So
remember you've got this. Start practicing those affirmations. Focus on
(03:40):
what you can control. Embrace challenges as opportunities for growth.
Be grateful for the good staff, and treat yourself with kindness.
Now go out there and rock your world. My friends,
share this episode with someone who needs a little boost
of confidence, leave us a review, and join the conversation
on social media. I can't wait to hear your thoughts
in story. Until next time, stays end, stays strong, and
(04:03):
stay focused. This podcast is powered by AI to bring
