Brendon Burchard's 5 steps to gaining greater confidence

1. Decide to have it. Make it an intention. You don't need to achieve anything more, you simply need to decide to feel and generate confidence on a more consistent and conscious basis.

2. Live with integrity for who you are and what you believe. When you are being fully alive and authentic and true to yourself, you feel confident.

3. Get more competent. Go gather more knowledge, skill, and abilities in the areas that you are passionate about and need to perform well in. More competence = more confidence.

4. Get momentum. Take more action. Life isn't about perfection it's about progress. The more action you take the more progress you'll sense and the more confident you'll feel that you are on path.

5. Surround yourself with positive, supportive people. If you don't have a supportive community, go create one. No excuses. A positive peer set will help you feel more confident.
