Wellbeing Wisdom Tiny Bites - How a Lack of Evidence Helps You Succeed

Can you be confident without evidence? When you have what feels like a great idea and you start taking the steps towards bringing that idea to fruition, how do you feel?

If you’re like most people, pretty confident. After all, it feels like a great idea! It’s in this stage of development when you need to keep your idea to yourself, and that can be so hard because … it feels like a great idea!

When there’s no evidence of your great idea, others often will try to talk you out of it. Human brains are wired to look for the pitfalls, and social programming reinforces that with the emphasis on weighing the pros and the cons of ideas. People don’t mean to rain on your parade, though that’s exactly what they do. And the closer you are to them – spouse, family member, boss, etc. – the more their words will gut your confidence.

Next time you have a great idea, I double-dog-dare you to keep it to yourself until there’s evidence you can demonstrate to others. It won’t completely stop the nay-sayers, but it will help you remain confident in your idea in spite of them.
