141. Handling Self-Doubt
Manage episode 365582690 series 3310389
This is the second in our Confidence and Self-Belief mini-series and this one is all about handling self-doubt so we don't hold ourselves back. Hybrid working has meant much more solo working than before - which can reduce the amount of sharing each others 'behind the scenes' moments. It can be easy to think that everyone else is confident and able when you are only interacting for a 1-hour Teams meeting.
Being self-aware is a pillar of emotional intelligence, so knowing when to catch this before it slides into unhealthy levels of self-doubt or over-thinking is a useful skill for working well. We share practical tools for limiting the impact of self-doubt as well as examples of how common feelings of doubt are. Some of the most successful people are full of self-doubt, but have learned how to handle this inner voice and convert it from self-critic to self-coach. You are not alone!
