自信法则-充分准备(7)

How to be confident?

 

Be prepared

 

充分准备

 

When you are prepared, you're going to be more confident with the situation you're going into. For example, say you were going camping. It would be pretty nerve-wracking to go into it without any gear¹, any preparation, and no idea of where you're going, right?

 

Now say you've taken the time to get all your gear together, establish an action plan, and know where you're heading. You'll be alot more confident going into it.

 

You can relate this to any everyday situation. If you're going to a party, be prepared by looking good, feeling good and having some conversation topics in mind. If you’re giving a speech, be prepared by knowing your speech. If you're giving a presentation, practice presenting it.Preparation will lead you to security² in the situation. (Confidence!)
