I\u2019m amazed at how my lack of confidence in myself often gets in the way of new relationships.

\nIf you don\u2019t believe you\u2019re good enough for someone, you will do everything possible to make sure you don\u2019t get rejected by doing the following:<\/p>\n
1. Never contacting the person even when they show signs of wanting to meet with you.<\/p>\n
2. Stay with someone who is not right for you simply because it\u2019s comfortable and the person won\u2019t reject you.<\/p>\n
3. Never ask a person to join you in a business deal because you are sure they would say no anyway!<\/p>\n
Yes, the list is endless and I have to admit I have done a few of the above myself. I\u2019m working on it. I have an exceptional business coach. She introduced me to one of her clients because she thought we would hit it off. I had lunch with her client and it was great. Here is the problem. This person has a far more glamorous life than many people. She travels a lot and does many exciting things! I thought to myself- she won\u2019t want to hang out with me! So I didn\u2019t call or ask her to meet again. Stupid! She is just a person! When I finally did call, she said, \u201cJulie! I was hoping to hear from you. I wasn\u2019t sure what happened.\u201d<\/p>\n
Lack of confidence. If I\u2019m scared I will get a no in terms of new relationships. I promise myself I will double my efforts to at least contact the person to say hi. It builds character and boosts my relationship confidence every day! And here\u2019s what\u2019s funny- when I tell people about my lack of confidence they look at me like I\u2019m crazy and say- but I felt that about you when I met you- I was scared to call you! We are weird creatures.<\/p>\n
