Taking the Lead: Embracing the Power of Going First
Just remember first- is where the good stuff is, and science has proven how good this is for us all and all. It is the reason why we don't do it and the reason why we limit ourselves and put this cap on our ability and shrink our self-belief and confidence is because of this animal fear of rejection, this loss of something that we wanted. You can alter it and you can get the benefits from it. As I'm saying this now, this is going to fundamentally change how you walk into high pressure situations.
Imagine a world where you always wait for someone else to take the first step. It sounds frustrating, right? In this eye-opening episode of 'Journey to Freedom', Shay Doran flips the script on that mindset. He dives into why putting yourself first can be a game-changer for personal growth and unlocking your full potential.
Shay argues that our reluctance to go first often stems from a fear of rejection, which can stifle our confidence and hold us back from the life we truly want. But here's the kicker: science backs up the idea that those who go first are more likely to be noticed and remembered. This episode isn't just about theory; Shay offers practical advice on how to start taking the lead in your everyday life.
Whether it's as simple as striking up a conversation with a new colleague or taking the initiative in a high-stakes meeting, these small steps can push you out of your comfort zone and build lasting confidence. Shay’s warm and empathetic tone makes this episode feel like a heart-to-heart chat with a friend who genuinely wants to see you thrive.
