2nd Leadership Article

This leadership article i read was called, Self Confidence - The 4 Power Secrets. The article tells you 4 reasons why people might lack self confidence, then it shares what to do about those 4 things to gain confidence. The article said the 4 reasons we lack confidence are, we are hard on ourselves, we are negative, we focus on what we can not do, and we hate our body. As a whole, i believe the article is saying that you need to love yourself, and be positive and accepting in order to gain self confidence.

The article covers confidence in the category leadership. It is teacher you how to become a better leader by gaining more self confidence. I would say the article could be directed towards all ages. It isn't just children who are hard on themselves and hate their body. Both children and adults can think negative about themselves. Personally i try to stay positive but the big one for me would be focusing on what i can't do. I, like many people, prefer things going perfect and doing things perfect, but many times that is demanding too much which leads to you being hard on yourself. This is an important article about leadership because it goes back to the basics and teachers you how to become a better leader.

I think the 4 "power secrets" are absolutely true and are very common. It is much easier said than done though. They are kinda of common sense and i'm sure people have recognized that they are negative and hate their body but they need to learn how. The explanations of how, in this article are a little broad. People need to learn how to stop being negative but all the article says is, just be positive and you will no longer be negative.

  1. Did you know that 17 of every 20 conversations Americans have are negative in nature. Can you imagine if we could turn this around.
