Confidence is one of my favorite topics. It’s a fascinating subject that we could dissect for days, but in this post I just want to give you a few quick tips that I have found to be very effective in my life. My clients have reported similar results. Let me clarify that by confidence I […]

August 24, 2014: I’ve made a few updates to this blog post, which was originally published in 2015, to reflect how I’m doing things differently now.
