👑 Build confidence with these tips

What’s up, Hustlers! 

How do you talk to yourself?

Is it how you would talk to a friend?

If not, change the narrative. The conversation between your ears is a catalyst for action.

You have a choice in what you say to yourself. Let’s make it supportive, forgiving and kind.

 .WHAT I’M THINKING ABOUT. 

How to build confidence. Confidence is a side effect of hustle. It's not just a state of mind, it's a byproduct of action. Confidence is achieved by diving headfirst into challenges with a gritty work ethic, moving towards your self-defined version of success.

Here are some tools to help build confidence as you hustle towards your goals. ⬇️ 

1. Movement 👟 I started to build my confidence through running. I was my favorite self when I was in the process of achieving my goals. Now, deadlifting heavy barbells gives me the confidence to walk into any room and slay.

2. Remember your victories 🏅 Every win, big or small, jot it down. Remind yourself of what you're capable of. Let those successes fuel your fire.

3. Admit when you don’t know 💭 Embrace vulnerability. Acknowledging what you don't know is a sign of strength and willingness to learn. It can pave the way for growth and ultimately boost your confidence.

 .WHAT I’M LOVING. 

The Easiest Sandwich. This sandwich is one of my all-time favorites – it's packed with veggies and protein, plus it tastes 🔥. It's the perfect meal or snack. Here's my go-to recipe, but let me know how you make it your own!

1. Toast a slice of sourdough bread or heavy, whole grain bread until golden brown and crisp.

2. Drizzle 1 tbs of extra virgin olive oil and 1 tbs of balsamic vinegar on the bread.

3. Spread a few tbs of mashed chickpeas onto the bread. Then, sprinkle with a pinch of salt and a pinch of oregano for added flavor.

4. Layer on chopped onion, mint leaves, and either parsley or microgreens for a burst of freshness and crunch.

5. Squeeze the juice from half a tomato over the sandwich and add sliced tomato pieces on top.

6. Add another slice of toasted bread on top, and enjoy! 🥪
