EP012 How To Build Self-Confidence Peak Performer
-
- Self-Improvement
According to renowned social psychologist Albert Bandura, self-efficacy is "the belief in one's ability to achieve desired outcomes." This is an essential psychological concept to understand if you want to build self-confidence in your work, art, or sport. Self-efficacy is the foundation of self-confidence; it is what allows us to believe that we can succeed in any specific situation. If you don't have a strong sense of self-efficacy related to a given task, it will be difficult for you to feel confident in your abilities. In this podcast episode, I'm reading Chapter 3 of Stewart Cotterill's The Psychology of Performance and discussing the difference between self-confidence and self-efficacy. Throughout this reading, I interrupt the narrative to offer my own input, clarity on certain aspects, and tips and advice on how to build up your sense of efficacy.
