Have you ever started something but quit before completing it after a while? However, There are lot of factors behind it. Let's dive into one of the most common: 𝐌𝐨𝐭𝐢𝐯𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧! 💪😉 Disclaimer: I am not a Motivational Coach, so take my advice at your own risk! 😅 𝐖𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐢𝐬 𝐌𝐨𝐭𝐢𝐯𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧? It's that magical force that pushes you to take action and make efforts. But hey, it can fluctuate with circumstances, obstacles, and experiences you face while doing it. Believe me, I suffered a lot due to Temporary Motivation. 🫣 There are two motivation flavors: 𝐄𝐱𝐭𝐞𝐫𝐧𝐚𝐥 (think deadlines, competition, boss expectations, and motivational speakers 😀) (I consider it as Temporary Motivation!) 𝐈𝐧𝐭𝐞𝐫𝐧𝐚𝐥 (hello confidence, passion, purpose) For now, Let’s just talk about one .i.e., Confidence!! 𝐖𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐢𝐬 𝐂𝐨𝐧𝐟𝐢𝐝𝐞𝐧𝐜𝐞? It is like your superpower – Your believe in you that you can conquer any task or situation. 💼 It is often built through experiences of success, and a realistic assessment of one’s capabilities through techniques like Journaling, Self-Assessment, etc. 𝐂𝐨𝐧𝐜𝐥𝐮𝐬𝐢𝐨𝐧❗ In the face of setbacks or challenges, individuals driven with confidence are more likely to persist and persevere because it is a psychological foundation. 🎉 Now, the million-dollar question: How to boost that confidence? There are several practical techniques like Self-Awareness, Continuous Learning, and Mindfulness etc. and I will try to post my experience with these techniques and practicality of each & every technique over the period of time with real life examples not just copy & paste.. 😉 🚀 Check out my last post about Self-Awareness for the insider tips: https://lnkd.in/gZj--8cM Ready to ditch the temporary motivation and embrace the everlasting kind?

https://lnkd.in/gTqV-tEQ The Advice “Focus on Your Strengths” Might Not Be What You Think Generally how people understand this, is to identify “areas” of strength in your life and focus on doing it more as compared to doing things that are not within those “areas” of strength. And, yes, generally, it is correct, it might even be inspiring. Imagine doing things you “love” every single day. The problem is, that advice does NOT paint a clear and actionable plan for the rest of us. Let me explain.

Bridging the Gap: Campus to Corporate | Personal Branding & Appearance Enhancement Coach | Communication & EQ Specialist | Certified Corporate Trainer & Image Coach | The Power Of Your Subconscious - Handwriting Analysis
Fear of being judged? Does it sound familiar? I’ve had clients who’ve insisted on doing something because they feel that people are judging them… It’s a common yet a powerful force that can significantly impact both personal and professional life. ❌ Constant worry about other opinions can stifle creativity and motivation. We second guess ourselves and our ideas. Limiting our potential to contribute. ❌ Leads to low self esteem or low self worth. We stop ourselves from experimenting or taking risks. ❌ Missing out on golden opportunities. We shy away from public, taking up leadership roles, which in turn hinder career growth and personal development. Imagine all of this because we are so scared of other people!!! What can I do to overcome the fear? ✅ Know that everyone is thinking about themselves at the end of the day, people are too busy with themselves to focus on you. ✅ Being authentic fosters deeper and better connections. Hence share your thoughts and feelings. It’s your strength and not your weakness. ✅ Be kind to yourself the way you would be to others. Acknowledge your efforts. We are all work in progress. ✅ Take action everytime that you find yourself having the fear, confront yourself and have a positive self talk. It will slowly push you out of your comfort zone. Everything takes time. It has taken you time to build that fear too, so it will take time for you to get over it too.. Remember your unique perspective it valuable. Book a 15 minute consultation with me to unlock this fear and to build a new “you” https://lnkd.in/dpPeU_YH #Mridulsoparkar #Fashioncouch #trainer #softskillstrainer #imageconsultant #mindsetcoach #fearofbeingjudged #coach #softskills #overcomingfear #beingjudged #GrowthMindset #confidence #personaldevelopment #fear #corporatetrainer #reach #bookacall #consultation

Self-Awareness, the Foundation of Emotional Intelligence 🧠 In our previous post, we explored the four key skills of emotional intelligence (EQ). Today, we'll delve deeper into the first and most crucial skill: self-awareness. 🔄 Self-awareness is the bedrock of EQ. It's about understanding your own emotions, strengths, weaknesses, values, and motivations. It's the ability to see yourself clearly and objectively, without judgement. 😇 Here are some ways to cultivate self-awareness: Reflection: Regularly carve out time for introspection. Journal, meditate, or simply take a quiet walk to reflect on your thoughts, feelings, and actions. Feedback: Seek honest feedback from trusted friends, colleagues, or mentors. This can be uncomfortable, but invaluable for uncovering blind spots. Self-assessment tools: Personality tests or emotional intelligence assessments can provide insights into your strengths and weaknesses. Remember, these are just starting points, not definitive answers. Why is self-awareness so important? 🤓 Improved decision-making: When you understand your triggers and biases, you can make more informed choices. Effective communication: Self-awareness allows you to express your needs clearly and understand the impact of your words on others. Stronger relationships: By understanding your own emotions, you're better equipped to empathize with and connect with others. Personal growth: Self-awareness is the first step to self-improvement. Remember, self-awareness is a journey, not a destination. There will always be new things to learn about yourself. But by actively cultivating this skill, you'll lay the foundation for a more fulfilling and emotionally intelligent life. What are your tips for developing self-awareness? Share your thoughts in the comments below! 😉 #EQ #emotionalintelligence #selfawareness

Doubting yourself can be a painful experience, but under the right circumstances, it can drive you to improve. When someone questions their self-doubt and uses it to learn lessons about themselves, it can guide them to improve and avoid repeating mistakes. Occasionally experiencing self-doubt is unavoidable – the only people who never doubt themselves in at least some areas are often delusional and their self-confidence isn’t supported by reality. But too much self-doubt can hold people back and tell them they shouldn’t take on challenges, even though they may have the ability to do well. Leveraging doubt for self-improvement requires asking yourself if the messages your doubt is sending you have any truth to them. If you’re doubting your ability to do well at something you’ve successfully done many times in the past, then you may be better off ignoring what your doubt is telling you because it’s likely unnecessary. But if you’re questioning whether you’re doing a good job at something new to you or how well you’re doing in a role that affects others, such as a leader, mentor or parent, there may be important lessons to be learned that you would miss out on if you told yourself you shouldn’t be feeling any doubt. Understanding that self-doubt can be a useful tool to discover areas where you would benefit from improving or an unnecessary source of concern in your capabilities can help you pay more attention to this emotion so you can develop confidence that’s based in your abilities. #doubt #selfboudt #selfesteem #selfconfidence #personaldevelopment #mentalhealth

🧠 Understanding Emotional Intelligence 🧠 Emotional intelligence has become a buzzword in today's professional world, but what does it truly mean? It's more than just being aware of your emotions; it's about how you harness and channel them to build more meaningful connections, make better decisions, and ultimately, find success in both your personal and professional life. Here are some key insights into the world of emotional intelligence: 1️⃣ Self-Awareness - Start by understanding your own emotions, recognizing your strengths, weaknesses, and triggers. Only when you truly know yourself can you begin to navigate the complex landscape of emotions. 2️⃣ Empathy - True emotional intelligence extends beyond self-awareness. It involves recognizing and understanding the emotions of others, putting yourself in their shoes, and responding with compassion and empathy. 3️⃣ Effective Communication - Being emotionally intelligent means being an effective communicator. It's about expressing yourself clearly and genuinely while actively listening to others. Remember, communication is a two-way street. 4️⃣ Conflict Resolution - Conflict is inevitable in any environment, but it's how we handle it that matters. Emotional intelligence allows us to navigate conflicts with grace and maturity, finding win-win solutions that benefit everyone involved. 5️⃣ Resilience - Life is filled with setbacks and challenges, but emotional intelligence empowers us to bounce back and adapt. It's about having the resilience and mental fortitude to keep moving forward, even in the face of adversity. So why does emotional intelligence matter? The research has shown that individuals with high emotional intelligence are more likely to succeed in their careers, have better relationships, and enjoy overall well-being. It's not just IQ that paves the way to success; it's also EQ. So, let's embark on a journey to enhance our emotional intelligence. Start by reflecting on and understanding your own emotions. Seek opportunities to practice empathy, effective communication, and conflict resolution. And most importantly, be resilient in the face of challenges, knowing that emotional intelligence is the key to unlocking a fulfilling and prosperous life.

Helping Black and Brown women shift the trajectory of their careers by strengthening their emotional intelligence and establishing executive presence.
Quiz time: What's the key to emotional intelligence? Self-awareness! It's not just a catchy phrase; it's your golden ticket to success. Especially when navigating those tricky double-binds—where you're caught between conflicting expectations. Picture this: You're striving to assert yourself, only to be labeled as overly aggressive. Yet, when you opt for a softer approach, they question your assertiveness. That's where having a healthy dose of self-awareness comes in handy. Armed with self-awareness, you can navigate these situations like a pro. And when you're backed by a supportive network, they'll help you stay true to yourself amidst the noise. With self-awareness as your compass and cheerleaders by your side, there's no limit to what you can achieve! #TheTeewithLinda #ExecutivePresence #BeingBrownAtWork #LeadershipMindset #CareerGoals #CareerAdvice #CareerChange #CareerSuccess #Career #CareerDevelopment #CareerCoaching #CareerPlanning #CareerGrowth #ProfessionalWomen #SelfAwareness #EmotionalIntelligence

Delivering Learning & Development bite size workshops, Coaching & Motivational Speaking Helping people to think differently...
Finding Confidence... A lot of people have the feeling of imposter syndrome, that for some reason they do not believe they should be where they are. To challenge this mode of thinking ask these questions:- What are you believing about yourself that is holding you back? How can you think more positively about yourself? What would you say to someone else who had achieved what you have achieved? Asking for more feedback takes confidence, but gives you confidence. It is easier for others to see your progression and really good for you to hear others acknowledge your successes. Keep a record of what others say about you, whether it be an email folder or a notebook. This is a great reference for you to look back and reflect to boost your confidence. Language is always the portal to meaning so be sure that you use confident phrases. Instead of "I may achieve this..." replace with "I can do this..." or even better "I will do this...". Will has willpower behind it and is always very empowering. https://buff.ly/3WhwnMK
