How to Double Your Boldness in 5 Minutes


How to Double Your Boldness in 5 Minutes
This article is about doubling your boldness in five minutes or less. No more reading books about self-confidence and self-esteem, no more talking to your psychiatrist about how you were not hugged as a child, no more work is required, this article will show you how to “double your boldness”…today!
The bold get what they want out of life, they take no prisoners, which is why boldness is a critical factor to your success. Boldness is more important than you have been led to believe. There is no success, without boldness.
Imagine you’re playing poker, and you have 1,000 poker chips, you feel great, you’re confident. Now imagine that you only have 10 poker chips, the way you would approach the same game, is very different now, you would be much more cautious with only 10 chips. Boldness is like the “poker chips of life,” but the good news is, you determine how many chips you have, by believing in yourself, and in your competence.
