True confidence takes time to develop. Learn why designing your ideal life is a vital part of building authentic self-confidence, and how to navigate the existential uncertainty that comes with this transformative journey.

Developing Confidence Takes Time

Think of your identity as a story you keep telling yourself about who you are. This story connects to your beliefs, mindset, thoughts and feelings. To create a new identity, you’ll need to tell yourself a new story so many times that you build a confirmation bias affirming this new story. As you accept the new story, your everyday actions will begin to align with the new narrative. Start telling yourself a new, more desirable story about yourself, and placing your belief in this new narrative.

Take-Aways

If self-doubt plagues you, you’re not alone. Few people possess genuine self-confidence – but it’s a quality you can learn to build for yourself. Meditation teacher Giovanni Dienstmann offers a clear, practical framework for confidence-building that you can incorporate into your daily life. If you’re looking for an overnight quick fix, this isn’t the framework for you

“A road map to self-empowerment, illuminating the journey from self-doubt to authenticity. The book’s unique blend of psychology, spirituality, and personal growth creates a comprehensive guide for building lasting self-assurance.” —David A. Treleaven, PhD, author of Trauma-Sensitive Mindfulness Imagine you had total confidence in yourself, in all areas of your life. We all want to believe in ourselves to the fullest—yet in a culture that confuses bravado, delusion, and narcissism with self-confidence, it’s no wonder we subconsciously internalize a limiting identity defined by fear and doubt. “My goal is to show you a different approach to confidence,” says Giovanni Dienstmann. “Not based on arrogance, but integrity, rooted in a fully integrated, energized, and unwavering faith in yourself. I call this wise confidence.” With Wise Confidence, this expert teacher and life coach brings together lessons and research from psychology, philosophy, spirituality, and mindfulness into a practical framework for genuine self-belief and inner strength. Here you’ll discover: • Three pillars of self-confidence: Aspiration, Awareness, Action • Finding the best in you—getting clear about your strengths, weaknesses, and vision of who you want to be • Practices for releasing negative emotions, embodying self-confidence, facing fear, and more • Guidance for cultivating authentic relationships and setting boundaries • The four spiritual principles that support connection, optimism, and a sense of purpose • Dozens of exercises, meditations, and powerful awareness tools for developing a new self-image with limitless potential “So many of us labor under a mistaken idea about who we are and what we are capable of,” teaches Dienstmann. “Wise confidence is a skill that can be learned—a skill that you can learn. Though the journey can be challenging, the only requirements are a deep desire to change and a willingness to take ownership of your healing, growth, and purpose. It is time to reclaim your power—and your true self.”
