How to Generate Confidence

Do you remember Karch Kiraly? I believe it was pronounced Ka-rye (like the bread).
Yes, the Olympic volleyball star.

I heard a good quote from him yesterday that I've been thinking about ever since.

"You cannot succeed without believing in yourself, and that belief is completely under your control; nobody else can generate it for you." ~Karch Kiraly, US Olympic Gold Medallist in Volleyball

It goes nicely with one of my favorite quotes from Michael Jordan --
"What happens to clutch guys in big moments is that everything slows down. You have time to evaluate the situation, and you can clearly see every move you need to make. You're in the moment, in complete control. It's hard to get there; something has to have you thinking that you can do no wrong. But once you do get there, you can just come out at the start of a game and generate the feeling"
(from P. Williams' How to Be Like Mike).

How good are you at generating confidence?

Today play a "generate confidence" game. See how well you can create a feeling of total confidence out of nowhere, for no other reason than you want to.

In Confidence,
