A New Way To Think About Self-Confidence

To be successful, what’s more important: competency or confidence? We’ll examine the importance of confidence to success as well as the myriad benefits of confidence — some of which you’ve probably never thought of, e.g. confidence can make you look more attractive! You’ll learn a new way to think about self-confidence. We’ll conclude with what I consider the most important idea about life you will ever learn. We’ll conclude with an exercise that will show you that you’re already confident.

Determine the source

Many people don’t understand the true source of all their problems. Is it the PI’s fault? Maybe you mislabeled your samples? Are these the cause of your problems? Or is it something else? You’ll first learn how to reveal all your problems and struggles in an honest and complete way. Next, you’ll learn how to separate the facts of your problems from the story about your problems. You’ll find out the good news that the cause of all your problems is something within your control.

The Model

On the final day, we’ll put everything you’ve learned and introduce The Model — a way to categorize and organize all aspects of your lives. It will help you better understand the decisions you make — most of them unconsciously — and allow you to make better, more intentional decisions in your life, including how to improve your self-confidence. You will learn different ways to use The Model that will allow you to transform your self-doubt into self-confidence. You will also learn how you can use and apply The Model in your daily life so you can continue building the skill of self-confidence after the course.
