Why Sweating The Small Stuff Absolutely Matters

By Evan Sanders


Where does confidence come from? Is it something that you are just born with or can we build confidence in time? Yes, a few individuals just appear to have it. But as someone who had it, lost it entirely, and had to build it all back from nothing, I'm going to tell you that you can do some pretty amazing things with building some iron confidence in your life.

It might be that you have none in your life at the moment, or perhaps you just want some more because you know how much it would aid you with making choices. But actually, where does this true confidence come from? There are these little things I love to call momentum builders that help you create confidence over time. Confidence, and the development of long-lasting confidence comes from the activity of sweating the details, the little stuff, the things that people frequently overlook. Why are these momentum builders important? Because when you can nail the small details down, and really knock those out of the park day in and day out, you build yourself some forward movement. You essentially get yourself out of the mud and heading in a direction. Often, going in any direction is better than not moving at all. You start to say, "Okay, I was capable of doing these things and brought these good habits into my life..what else am I really capable of?" Now you are entering into a place of magic. You see, when you actually nail the tiny stuff, the huge things become more practicable. It's when we try to go for the gigantic goal without having the integrity of concentrating on the small things that actually set us up for failing.

So sweat the tiny stuff. Really take the time to focus on the practicable measure of your life, and over longer bouts of time start going for larger goals. What if you fail? Take a gentle step back down and refocus on what you can achieve, and try and try again. This is a pretty simple path to success. In fact, the quantum leap is exactly what you should not be focusing on.

Lots of folks get put off when they try something gigantic in life and fail. Actually most people will try something 3 times and then give up completely. But if you build some heavy momentum, you will have the confidence to try something over and again and again till you get it correct.

Isn't that a far better way to live life?

Build some significant momentum behind you and you are really capable of wonderful things.

But first, you must sweat the small stuff.
