What you think about yourself matter

Aug 2, 2022 | Tip for a Terrific Tuesday

Henry Ford once said, “Whether you think you can, or you think you can’t, you’re right.” This is true. Whether you achieve your goals or whether you don’t achieve them all comes down to whether you believe in yourself. The Bragg Factor teaches you how to own and communicate your value. In doing so, you will gain self-confidence. In my latest book, “How to Create Your Bragg Book For a Competitive Job Market” you will get templates to help you present yourself in a powerful and confident way. When you put together your Bragg Book, you will gain self-confidence and a new awareness of how good you are. Without believing in yourself you can’t achieve your goals. I encourage you to go to Amazon.com and get a copy of my book – “How to Create Your Bragg Book for a Competitive Job Market” and let’s see if you can’t get a better job, a higher salary, or a promotion. “Remember, whether you think you can or you can’t, you’re right.” It’s all up to how you believe in yourself. So start today knowing that you can.
