Ace the Interview, and Much More: Life Coach’s New Book Gives Secret for Unstoppable Confidence
Dallas, TX, July 25, 2009 --(PR.com)-- In this economy, the last thing workers need is a self-imposed obstacle to success. That’s partly why renowned life coach Astrid Harris created Unstoppable Confidence, her new book that’s giving people a fresh outlook so they can excel in work, in love and in life.
The secret is Harris’s six breakthrough steps that help build self-confidence through case studies, self-exams, exercises and empowering techniques. It’s a message that’s more important than ever, as surveys show the poor economy and rising unemployment have negatively impacted people’s sense of self-worth.
Harris doesn’t waste time with psycho-jargon and buzzwords; instead, readers get the concrete tools they need to move past the mental hang-ups that are holding them back, the very first time they pick up the book. And that kind of confidence shows when it’s time for a promotion, a job interview or simply making new friends.
“Many people in life have the same skills as the successful person, but what holds them back is their lack of self-belief,” Harris writes. “The difference between those who succeed and those who do not is confidence.”
How do you get it? Here are just a few tips anyone can use to build up their confidence right now:
Change “should” to “could.” A “should” (“I should be making more”) represents a demand of the self. Instead, focus on what can be done to change (“I could focus on increasing my skill set to make myself more valuable”).
Stop downplaying the positives. When someone gives praise or thanks, don’t say, “It was nothing.” Accept credit and pat yourself on the back.
Realize perfection is an illusion. Accept the bad times while asking, “How can I improve this situation now?”
Unstoppable Confidence helps readers think about, recognize, face up to and analyze their perceived limitations while identifying their objectives in life--and, most importantly, how to get there.
“Now is the time to throw away your misgivings and lack of self-belief,” states Harris. “Why be timid and quiet when the world around you is confident and brims with life?”
Unstoppable Confidence is now available through Ingram, Baker & Taylor, Amazon.com, barnesandnoble.com, and the online bookstore of Outskirts Press, at outskirtspress.com/store.php.
