Summary

Most people wait to feel confident before they act. In this episode, Brian breaks down why that has the order exactly backwards — confidence isn't a feeling you wait for, it's evidence you collect. Drawing on performance psychologist Dr. Gio Valiante's recent conversation on The Knowledge Project and decades of research by psychologist Albert Bandura, Brian walks through the four sources of confidence: mastery experiences, vicarious experience, self-talk, and how you interpret your body's signals — plus a simple seven-day practice for manufacturing proof that you can do hard things. -- Get on the list to receive Brian's monthly newsletter: https://nodaysoff.com/subscribe/ Tune in to this podcast every weekday morning for 10 minutes or less as Brian shares lessons and stories about how to make positive changes in your life and business, one day at a time.
