Topic: Confidence – The Secret Sauce and How to Get it, Keep it and Leverage it.
Do you know what the difference is between wanting to do something and doing it? Confidence is not just skills or opportunities. It is the main difference between going after what you want and inaction.
Confidence is the secret sauce entrepreneurs need to attempt to achieve. Many people do not trust themselves and their abilities and have developed powerful habits that stop them from even dreaming. Confidence is the willingness to put oneself out there, even when there is risk of failure.
