I'm having some confidence issues at work.

(Muhammad Shoaib Tanoli, )

I'm having some confidence issues at work. I'm working hard but not sure if I'm doing a good job. My boss never recognises anything I do. When I ask him for feedback, he says I'm 'doing fine' but that's it. I'm doubting myself and scared I'll be found out as a fraud. What should I do?"

Whenever someone has this challenge, my first question is always:

How good are you at being your own internal cheerleader?

We all like recognition from others. But when we NEED it, it's a problem. Because then our whole self-worth becomes dependent on what others think of us. And we don't ever get to feel successful for ourselves.

As a single solopreneur, I don't have anyone to tell me "Good job!". Becoming a master of the self-high-five has been instrumental in my happiness and success.

If you're doubting yourself - it's time to start recognising your successes. Celebrating your wins - big and small. Acknowledging the gifts God has given you.

At the end of each day - write down all the things you did well. From achieving a specific goal, to making someone else's day.

It's time to see your awesomeness for yourself.

How do you celebrate your successes?

Would love to hear your stories!
