How To … Be More Confident in Your Choices

October 10, 2024 By Nagesh Belludi Leave a Comment

Build Self-Trust: Make Confident Decisions by Setting Healthy Boundaries To feel more comfortable with others disagreeing with you, cultivate a deeper understanding of who you are. This will help you regain trust in yourself and honor your own needs.

Don’t let the fear of people’s opinions (FOPO) hold you back. For informed decision-making, take the time to thoughtfully consider any choices you’re facing. Reflect on how you truly feel, visualize the likely positive and negative outcomes for yourself and others, and pay attention to what feels right. Finally, establish healthy boundaries to protect yourself from external opinions.

Idea for Impact: While it’s important to consider other people’s opinions, don’t let them dictate your own beliefs. Developing self-awareness will empower you to confidently say, “You may not agree with this, but it feels right to me.”
