    Happy Sunday, Courtney! Believe it or not, I’m going on my first date in over two and a half years this afternoon! I’m feeling confident, and I’m ready to enjoy the moment and maybe learn a thing or two!

  • @asdax8311 says:

    The moment I left my home and start living alone, I started becoming more confident in myself.

    • @LowerTheBoom says:

      You left your home? Do you live in the forest and make a living out of nature?

    • @asdax8311 says:

      @LowerTheBoom  Yep. Made a treehouse by the river. Even befriended rabbits, squirrels, grizzly bears and water moccasins, 😉.

      That’s awesome ❤️

    • @ElevateMyRelationships says:

      @ That’s unfortunate, but you have to understand nobody is going to come to rescue you.

      You have to take the necessary steps to make changes in your life. Even if they are incremental, one day at a time, they all add up in a positive direction.

      Start with a bit of exercise, better health, better mind, positivity when you do that.

    Thank you Courtney for the informative advice.❤

  • @elisteele574 says:

    Just wanna say thank you, Courtney. I think you’re amazing for doing what you do, the world is so full of people trying to make problems worse and so very few trying to solve any. You’re fantastic, for the world at whole. For those that listen with open minds, there’s much to learn from your channel.

    Do The Hard Things
    I told my, then young, son that anything new he tries he will suck at. He’ll be crappy at it. Yet when he devotes time and effort into his quest he will get better and even excellent at it.
    (Which is why it got dangerous playing catch with him after he exceeded 70 mph when pitching.) He has two engineering degrees now, lifts weights, and is getting past the beginner stage of playing a guitar.

    • @RobertTaylor-gz2fu says:

      Does he get same-day lays

    • @Snarge22 says:

      I don’t know@@RobertTaylor-gz2fu, but I don’t doubt he can if he works at it. (He’s naturally gregarious, wavy curly hair that I’ve seen women really like in him, and 6’4″ tall.)

  • @marathoner43 says:

    I quite often disagree with Courtney. But on this, she is correct. I grew up believing that perfection was not optional. If you aren’t perfect, you aren’t good enough. 2nd place is the 1st place failure, and there is NOTHING more disgusting than failure. I believed this would make me strive to be better in everything I did. All it did was burn me out trying to be something I could never achieve, and killed my confidence.

    Great example, in 2007 I ran my personal best marathon at 3:37:15. Did I celebrate the personal best? NO! Was I even a bit happy with it? Not really. I went home and said “Why wasn’t it a 3:30? You didn’t train hard enough. It would have been a 3:35 if you had remembered to take enough electrolytes and didn’t have that hamstring cramp at mile 24.”

    While it’s great to look for ways to improve, don’t let it stop you from appreciating what you did. Otherwise, you’ll never be confident you can do what you set out to do.

    • @bedsdavies8210 says:

      Great advice. I think theres a lot to be said about the point you make. Unfortunately, the culture of ‘if you’re not first, you’re last” is so prevalent that it’ll take a lot of shouting before anyone hears an alternative.

    *Negative self-talk and procrastination are silent killers of confidence. Replacing them with small daily wins and affirmations can rebuild self-belief one step at a time.*

    • @Varonno says:

      Say yes when it’s beneficial. Pleasure is more than sacrifice and struggle. Men aren’t taught to pamper themselves

  • @p.o.p.presents says:

    Thank you Courtney. All 7 were useful and at one point I suffered from all 7 habits. I’ve come a long way. The comfort zone and procrastinating have been my biggest two. Stepping boldly into the unknown and trying something new always energizes me and boosts my confidence. As far as procrastinating I focus on completing one task at a time. I notice completion is infectious. It spreads to other tasks. I’m proud of myself whenever I complete something I start. This whole video is some of the best constructive advice i’ve seen online.

  • @x-train says:

    Great video. One things I know I need to work on is to not second guess myself. I feel that I had good intuition but don’t trust it enough

  • @Jahchristo says:

    Thank you, Courtney. I have thoroughly enjoyed all your videos. As a single 55! year old I spend a lot of time on mind and body; and after long term relationships, a few wonderful and one not so, it’s time for me. You are inspiring!

  • @optionout says:

    Great stuff. 💯🎯 KEEP GROWING!!

  • @backyardrailroader says:

    You have great points, Courtney. As for challenges, one needs to start small and increase the level of those challenges. But one has to be realistic about it. If you find a certain challenge is 6 up, constantly attempting to do it will have an opposite effect on your confidence. You, your body, and your mind do have limitations.

  • @whitewalker608 says:

    This is one of your best videos yet. Also, btw, once you suggested your husband’s channel in one of your videos. Turns out, I have started loving watches and have watched tons of Teddy’s and Kevin O’Leary’s watch videos and now I visit match stores a lot and have made a list of my own. So, thanks for that!

    • @whitewalker608 says:

      @@Swearengen1980 Bro. Women are humans too. Women can and do like anything they want as much as men do. Believe it or not, we are 99.9% the same (I’m not making this up). Also, I love learning about new things. I realized how much I didn’t know. I love how great the engineering is behind the automatic watches. I love to dress well and I already have been wearing a Seiko that my uncle gave me when I was in high school. I look good with watches on. So, this just reignited my love for really good looking watches that make me look good and the engineering behind them. I love going to the malls now. Something more fun to do in my life I have now. I hope you find yours as well.

      As far as influence trend goes, I was never on Facebook or on Instagram. I haven’t been influenced by anybody. I’m just learning from everyone. She did a great job in promoting her husband. He seems like a really hardworking, knowledgeable, and humble guy. Plus, seeing him and Kevin buying $300K worth of watches like they’re nothing really inspires me. You call it “influence” because you’ve been stained by Instagram. I call it normal life learning and growth like how it’s always been.

      So, let me live my life and you enjoy yours too! Not much time we have.

    It’s nice to watch a positive and informative video. This channel is a light in all the darkness. 🙏🏽

    Super important!! I love this simple advice reminding us what underpins success❤

  • @astherphoenix9648 says:

    I started crying when you talked about trusting myself. Although i have accomplished so many great things over the last couple years and things look great from the outside, there are some things from the past like failures that still haunt me even though i am not thinking directly about them. I need to work on this

    • @CourtneyRyan says:

      @@astherphoenix9648 Hugs ❤️ maybe try to shift the way you’re looking at those “past failures” – if you learned from it and have done right moving forward, I think considering it a lesson learned instead can be helpful. In that case, was it really a failure after all? Rooting for you!

    • @astherphoenix9648 says:

      @CourtneyRyan appreciate the kind words. The failure was definitely real because I let myself down and I have since learnt from it. But I find it hard to think highly of myself since then. Especially when left to myself and when I have to confront a problem that’s new or that requires me to do some tasks that I am not great at
