The Faith Equation
Do you have faith in yourself and your process?
Together, those two form your faith equation; the belief that you can minimize the imperfections of your amazing brain while maximizing its potential.
What makes up that equation?
It’s your beliefs about yourself and your process; both the positive and the negative.
We’re often told to “just stay positive.” But building a strong faith equation isn’t about being positive all the time. That’s impossible and unhelpful.
You actually need some adversity in there. If your equation is too positive, you drift into arrogance and overconfidence. You stop listening, stop adjusting, stop respecting the challenge.
If it’s too negative, you feel helpless. Every setback becomes proof you’re not good enough. Development stalls because you don’t believe effort will matter.
A strong faith equation is tipped to the positive. There’s enough belief to keep you moving, and just enough doubt or discomfort to keep you honest, humble, and hungry; satisfied but striving.
Development continues when you trust the process and let each side of the equation push the other.
If you want help building that faith equation — for yourself, your team, or your organization — we can support you with a keynote, team training, or one-on-one coaching. Reach out, and let’s train your Inner Athlete on purpose.
