Confidence at Work: Own Your Job Like a Boss
Are You Truly Owning Your Job and would you like more confidence at work?
Why Confidence at Work Matters
If you’ve landed a job, started a new leadership role, or still don’t feel fully in command of your responsibilities, ask yourself: Do you own your job? Are you stepping into your role with certainty and confidence?
Many professionals appear confident on the outside but feel unsure internally. Confidence isn’t about what you say; it’s about how you feel. Closing this gap is the key to leadership success.
How to Step into Your Role with Confidence
- Self-Coaching Questions: Ask yourself, “Where did I decide I needed more approval to fully embrace my job?”
- Recognize Your Success: Acknowledge your achievements instead of waiting for external validation.
- Shift Your Mindset: Confidence is not about waiting for time to pass—it’s about owning your role now.
Overcoming Imposter Syndrome
If you feel like an imposter despite your skills, it’s time to break that cycle. Unless you’ve faked your resume, your doubts are just mental noise. Let’s shift your focus to the evidence of your success.
Building Certainty and Confidence
- Make a list of your skills, training, and past results—evidence that proves you belong in your role.
- Ask yourself, “What do I know for sure about my capabilities?”
- Keep counting until you feel a shift—certainty stacks up as you reinforce your strengths.
Strengthen Your Internal Confidence
Confidence comes from within. If you rely solely on performance reviews or others’ opinions, you give away your power. Instead, build your own internal reference and validate your progress.
