Believe Your Way to Winning!

Last Friday a client, I’ll refer to as Jennifer, called me to celebrate a huge win in her life. She had just closed a gigantic consulting deal and was over flowing with joy and excitement.

I was thrilled for her. Then she said, “It’s all thanks to you.” Now those of you who know me, know that I’m not going to let a client give me the credit for their victory. I will share in the joy of their accomplishment, but they get the credit.

So, we coached and she saw that she had begun to believe in herself through our work, and had completely believed in herself during the presentation to this major corporation.

And believing in herself was what it took. Jennifer’s client knew instantly that she and her team were perfect for the job. Because she believed in herself, her team and the work they could do, she got the job. We’re talking serious money here. Great work Jennifer!!

Another Victory

Here’s an example of another winner – three-time Wimbledon champion Roger Federer. In his post-victory interview, Federer said he won because he always has confidence in his strengths. Always!

So instead of focusing on what you perceive to be your weak areas, let’s look at your strengths. We are always going to have weaker areas. It’s okay. That’s just being human. You can increase your strengths and believe in yourself the way Jennifer and Roger did.

Believe In Your Strengths

So what are your strengths? What do you do well? You know. Don’t let your ego talk you out of them.

Are you friendly, funny, kind, compassionate, creative, thoughtful, sincere, responsible, loving, warm, intelligent, giving, generous, a problem solver, team player, a good No. 2 person, a leader, an implementer?

Name your strengths. Focus on those. Once you have them listed then I want you to think about how those strengths make you a great partner. What do you bring to a romantic relationship?

One of my clients who just got engaged is kind, adventurous, smart, works on herself, loves her fiancée, makes projects fun, is compassionate yet knows when and how to be firm with him and truly values him. All that works for him.

Some men might want a woman who is athletic, or a size 2, or a gourmet cook, or sharp witted, or entrepreneurial, or ultra successful, or no career aspirations. Different people want different things and the only woman or man that will work for you is the one who wants the qualities you have and the one who has the qualities you want.

So be clear about who you are, who you know in your heart you are. You don’t need to be someone else to attract a certain kind of person. You get to be yourself and thoroughly enjoy that. It’s so much easier, fun and joyful!
