@Derek: Ambition, confidence and self-perception are all joined up, and all the media crap right now is making things worse by giving people more excuses not to stand up and do something. Criminal. You’re right, shift that mindset and you’re off and running.

@Carrie: Makes it more human doesn’t it?!

Just look at the people around you that are caught up in the fact that we are in a recession, they are the ones that can’t stop talking about it and hang on every piece of main stream media crap designed to make and keep you feeling like shit.

When you feel like shit, you have no ambition, when you have no ambition you have no confidence and with out that you don’t take action and just sit on your ass.

Thanks for having Naomi, It is great to have someone who will just tell ya like it is. I know that her writing has helped me along many times.

The more high profile my projects get, the more I have to remind myself not to fall into the low self-confidence trap. I have to consistently tell myself that I’m capable and likable and very unlikely to fail.

I hear you on that one. Amen.
