Amigo/a Date Cuenta
Las ganas que tengo a veces de gritarles esto👆🏼👆🏼👆🏼a algunas personas con las que converso. Y no, no es por lo que piensan. Es que me ha pasado más de una vez que me he tenido que sentar delante de personas que tienen TANTO potencial, tanto talento, y sin embargo, dudan. Por otro lado, lo que más disfruto de mi trabajo es ver la cara de las personas cuando logran cosas que creían imposibles.
De hecho, la semana pasada sucedió en mi equipo en la oficina. Alguien había hecho un trabajo genial pero no estaba segura de la calidad del trabajo, hasta que las felicitaciones y aplausos vinieron del cliente. Es muy común que, todos hayamos dudado de nuestras capacidades. De hecho, estudios muestran que aproximadamente el 85% de las personas en el mundo luchan con baja autoestima en algún punto de sus vidas. Esa voz interior que nos cuestiona y nos paraliza, impidiéndonos avanzar, es más común de lo que pensamos. La falta de confianza en nosotros mismos puede mantenernos estancados, evitando que alcancemos nuestro potencial. Esa falta de confianza nos puede dejar en el mismo lugar toda la vida. Envejeciendo pero no avanzando.
¿Qué pasaría si dejáramos de dudar de nosotros mismos? Quiero compartir algunas cosas que pueden ayudar:
Desarrollar confianza en uno mismo es un viaje continuo que requiere paciencia y práctica. Es un viaje que nos puede durar toda una vida, pero vaya que va a valer la pena. Es hora de que nos demos cuenta de nuestro potencial, es hora que dejemos de dudar de lo que podemos lograr, es hora de que nos hagamos cargo de lo que queremos que suceda en nuestras vidas y en nuestro entorno.
No permitamos que la auto-duda nos detenga. Sigamos dando pequeños pasos sabiendo y creyendo en quienes somos y en lo que podemos lograr.
Que esta semana cuente!!
Y creo en ustedes y en su potencial.

Friend, Wake Up and Realize
The urge I sometimes have to shout this👆🏼👆🏼👆🏼to some people I talk to. And no, it's not for what you might think. It’s because more than once I’ve had to sit in front of people with SO much potential, so much talent, and yet they doubt themselves. On the other hand, what I enjoy most about my job is seeing people’s faces when they achieve things they thought were impossible.
In fact, this happened last week with my team at the office. Someone had done a great job but wasn’t sure about the quality of their work until the client’s congratulations and applause came. It’s very common that we all have doubted our abilities. In fact, studies show that approximately 85% of people worldwide struggle with low self-esteem at some point in their lives. That inner voice that questions and paralyzes us, preventing us from moving forward, is more common than we think. A lack of self-confidence can keep us stuck, preventing us from reaching our potential. This lack of confidence can leave us in the same place all our lives, growing older but not advancing.
What would happen if we stopped doubting ourselves? I want to share some things that can help:
1. Know and Accept Yourself. The first step to building confidence is knowing yourself. Take time to reflect on your strengths, weaknesses, gifts, and abilities. By doing this, you’ll become aware that you have many more strengths than weaknesses, and you’ll be exposed to your gifts and the tremendous potential you have. Self-knowledge is vital. Now, once you know yourself, you must accept yourself. Recognize that you are a human being with imperfections, and that’s okay. Accepting yourself as you are is the first step towards solid self-confidence.
2. Mind the Tone in Which You Speak to Yourself. This is so hard for me. The way you speak to yourself has a profound impact on your self-confidence. The first thing is to listen to yourself, which I think is the hardest part. We’re so used to the tone in our heads that we don’t realize we’re often very harsh and critical with ourselves. One technique that had the most impact on my life for changing my tone was asking myself if I would speak to my child that way. That was the starting point. From there, it’s a matter of replacing negative self-talk with positive affirmations. Instead of saying, “I messed up again,” try saying, “I’m learning and improving every day.”
3. Build a Solid Identity. To develop lasting confidence, build your identity on a solid foundation. Anchoring your identity to something fragile like your achievements, profession, money, or fame can end up destroying your self-esteem. For me, the best option is to cultivate your spirituality. This can offer a firm anchor in moments of uncertainty. Dedicate time to practices that connect you with God, such as meditation, prayer, or reflection. Having an identity based on something deeper will give you the strength to face any challenge.
Developing self-confidence is an ongoing journey that requires patience and practice. It’s a journey that can last a lifetime, but it’s definitely worth it. It’s time to realize our potential, time to stop doubting what we can achieve, and time to take charge of what we want to happen in our lives and surroundings.
Let’s not allow self-doubt to stop us. Let’s keep taking small steps, knowing and believing in who we are and what we can achieve.
Make this week count!! I love you all!!
And I believe in you and your potential.
