I Do This Everyday To Boost My Confidence

Here’s a simple idea that addresses a problem 99% of us face.

It comes from a book I read over a year ago. Most books I read are easily forgotten, but this book’s main idea is so powerful and helpful that it has affected what I do every night before I go to bed.

It is having a huge impact on the joy and confidence I feel.

The book is The Gap & the Gain by Benjamin Hardy & Dan Sullivan.

And their brilliant insight is this…

We have a strong tendency to constantly focus on the GAP between where we are and where we want to be. And this makes us miserable (or at least less than happy).

*Look in a mirror and without any effort you’ll start to think about how you want your body to be different.

*Look at your bank balance and you’ll wish you spent less/had more money/had less debt.

*Look at your kids and you’ll think if only they ate better, slept more, sulked less, worked harder at school.

*Look at your career and you’ll soon be yearning for less hours/more interesting work/different boss.

Without any effort we instinctively focus on the GAP between our current life and our reality.
