Mindset Matters – Episode #186 – From Fear to Faith: How Real Confidence Is Built, Not Felt
“Why the conversation about mindset and why is it important? It’s not just about success, it’s not about getting shit done, it’s not about being uber successful in business or in life. It’s really how we approach business, how we approach life. It’s actually all about us and how we view the world.” – Patrick Francey
- In this powerful and relatable episode of Mindset Matters, Patrick and Steffany explore the true nature of confidence through the lens of a compelling parable about a young boy named Eli who builds a bridge—despite the doubts of others and his own inexperience. The story becomes the foundation for a meaningful discussion about self-trust, belief, and the myth that confidence is something we have to feel before we take action.
- They break down confidence into three key types: self-confidence, social confidence, and confidence in others. What emerges is a game-changing insight—confidence isn’t something you wait for. It’s something you build, plank by plank, failure by failure, just like Eli. Confidence, they argue, is rooted in self-trust, discipline, and commitment, not a fleeting emotional state.
- Whether you’re struggling with imposter syndrome, fear of failure, or social anxiety, this conversation invites you to shift your perspective. Instead of seeing confidence as a prerequisite for action, see it as the result of consistent effort, learning, and resilience.
- From parenting insights to leadership lessons and personal growth strategies, this episode is filled with real-world wisdom—highlighting how borrowing belief from others, owning your past failures, and facing discomfort are all part of building authentic confidence.
