Fortune Cookie Fridays – Week 3

// November 23rd, 2007 // Fortune Cookie Fridays

Your air of confidence naturally draws others to you.

Confidence, eh? Well, if you believe in the law of attraction or not, whatever we are attracts more of the same. If we ourselves are confident then we attract other confident individuals. If we are suffering from a poor self image, then guess what, we attract like individuals. Really, the whole notion of “opposites attract” works for electrons. If you are dirt poor you do not attract extreme wealth, just the same if you are not confident you don’t attract confidence.

The biggest challenge is that people who feel they lack a certain amount of confidence at some point will likely sit down and “work on” improving their confidence… Um, great intention, yet what isn’t realized is that confidence is a BYPRODUCT and cannot be directly “worked on”… sorry..

Confidence is absolutely key to having a healthy self-image, however it is indeed a byproduct of:

• Purpose – understanding and being congruent with one’s own purpose
• Protection – one’s own protection methods from emotional, mental, and physical harm
• Forgiveness – the ability to forgive others who have done wrong
• Understanding – let’s just simply say “know thy self”, shall we?
• Control – one’s ability to control our thoughts and actions when necessary

Confidence is made up of each component and the stronger each component is, the stronger our confidence is.
