Inspiring Confidence is one of several benefits of engaging in Personal Development practices. Personal Development begins with a Vision of your dream lifestyle. A dream lifestyle consists of enjoying a purposeful career, expressing one's values in a personal life, having passions, learning continuously, and enjoying rewarding relationships.
Personal Development begins with Entitlement, Empowerment, and Enlightenment. Soon, one feels entitled and deserving of everything desired. Without feeling deserving, it is difficult to dedicate yourself to overcoming obstacles to reach your goals.
Empowerment is having the capabilities to make progress in your career and toward achieving your dream lifestyle. These capabilities are developed through leaning and daily practices that are congruent with growth.
Entitlement is having had small successes in moving forward increasing one's realization that their dream lifestyle could be achieved with commitment and resilience. No one makes a leap from zero to 60. Success is a series of steps in the right direction.
Finally, but of course not the whole picture, having support in the process from superiors, peers, family, and friends helps maintain the courage that is constantly tested in the process. Successful people have affirmations, mantras, and processes in the morning to "buck up" to the challenges they know they will face each day because they willingly step out of their comfort zones to grow.
