Self-belief is your belief in your ability to carry out your tasks and to accomplish your goals.
Believing that you are capable of success significantly improves the probability that you will actually succeed.
With this as a known truth, now put yourself mentally into job search mode, think about making job applications, attending interviews and giving presentations.
Clearly it is essential to approach these tasks with a good dose of positive self-belief.
If you struggle with your self-belief talk to your career coach for advice.
But if you haven’t got one, here are a few ‘Stop-Start’ tips that will help you combat some of the most common mental anchors.
1. Stop thinking “I’m too old” – Start demonstrating the wisdom that your age has given you.
2. Stop thinking “I’m too young” – Start capitalising on the enthusiasm and energy you have.
3. Stop thinking “Fred is so much cleverer than I am” – Start focusing on your own abilities.
4. Stop thinking “Jane is better at that than I am” – Start focusing all your achievements.
5. Stop thinking “Success doesn’t come to people like me” – Start projecting a positive attitude.
