Choose Carefully!
How are you going to remove self doubt? Sometimes it’s hard to deal with this situations as the people who doubt us can be the ones closest to us- like family members or close friends!
The worst part is that sometimes it’s harder to shrug it off as they may be genuinely helping you. So how do you deal with this kind of situation?
First, determine whether it is suitable to share the situation with your family members or close friends. Sometimes things that we want to do have never been done by them, so they will undoubtedly give you advice that is against what you want. The first step is to control yourself.
For example if you want to start your own business, and if one of your family members or close friends had bad experience in it, they most likely will tell you it is high risk! This will inevitably cause you to avoid taking action and keep doubting yourself and your abilities.
So when you get too excited, do not immediately share the news with everyone, choose who you want to share the news with carefully.
