How to Develop a Confidence Ritual

You have a ritual that gets you physically prepared for work

but do you have a ritual that gets you mentally prepared for work?

It's more common than you think and it is something high performers do regularly.

How many times have you been told to “just be confident”?

The person telling you this might have good intentions,

but it isn’t practical because just as you can’t fall asleep on command,

you can’t “just be confident” on demand.

Everybody has a ritual that primes...
them to fall asleep, even if they don't think of it as a ritual.

Your bedtime ritual might involve:

-Changing into your pajamas
-Brushing your teeth
-Removing all the unnecessary pillows (seriously, why do people have so many pillows?)
-Reading a book

Just as you can...
obliquely prime your mind for a good night's sleep,

you can obliquely prime your state of mind for High Performance and Deep Work🤯

Here are 5 Ideas to Help you Develop your own Confidence Ritual

You should aim to do these BEFORE you work

in the morning

⬇⬇
1. Workout

Working out is a great way to wake up as you never leave a workout feeling worse than you did before the workout.

The intensity of your workout doesn’t have to be ultra high, just challenging enough to get the blood flowing.

I like to Shadowbox in the mornings.

2. Use Affirmations

I used to think affirmations were cheesy, until I started using them consistently.

Affirmations are a form of self-brainwashing.

You can tailor them around your goals or on how you would like to feel and act.

Best way to create affirmations is to...
imagine your ideal self.

-How does he behave?

-What emotions does he feel?

-How does he live his life?

Now speak as if you were that person.

Those thoughts become your affirmations.

Tyson used to tell himself he was a God as he walked in the ring 🥊💪

3. Listen to Uplifting Music

Music has the power to move you and change the way you feel about yourself *instantly* without any rational thought.

It’s like taking drugs for your mood and your mind.

Listen to sad music and you will feel sad.

Listen to powerful music and...
you will feel powerful.

I listen to Terminate by @DejaRu22.

It is a 20 minute music track loaded with 1400+ affirmations that are designed to prime your mind for God-like levels of self-confidence, focus, concentration and determination.

There are certain poses you can do that change your body's chemistry and boost your feelings of confidence.

Here is a short talk that explains the science of it 👇
5. Upgrade your Habits

This is more of a long term strategy but if you structure your life with the right habits,

your confidence will Compound over time.

I boosted my confidence with the Live Intentionally program as did 1000s of others.
