Dr. #SharonMelnick Says Self #Confidence Makes you Money, Self Doubt Costs You Money @matrixthinker #salesgen #lifecoach #consulting

Over the past 2 years, most people have worked harder for less return and less recognition. That has led many to be less confident and secure.

Yet there are people in every industry and within every company who are doing better than ever. In fact, according to Dr. Sharon Melnick, Business Psychologist, “Confident people are doing well in these times but self doubters are living in frustration and not earning as much as they want for their families. The difference between them is the confidence to ‘go for it’, ‘ask for it’, and not hold back to avoid criticism or failure.”

There is ample evidence to support this argument. For example, a 2007 study conducted by the University of Florida determined that young people who are self confident will go on to earn hundreds of thousands of dollars more over their lifetime than young people with less confidence.

Dr. Melnick also adds that, “An individual who questions herself won’t live up to her potential, and be hard on herself because of it. But it’s not just individuals who suffer—Because studies in the U.S. and U.K. suggest that between 44% - 85% of people have low self-confidence, businesses aren’t getting the best ideas from a majority of their employees and more people could be successful at launching new companies. Families also suffer when parents don't have the confidence to raise 'go-getter' children.”

Why are the disparities so great and what can be done to enhance a persons’ self-confidence? Dr Melnick answers this question by describing the top 10 ways Self Confidence Makes You More Money and Self Doubt Costs you Money. Included in her list are:

- Confident people follow up on opportunities but self-doubters don’t (they think others are ‘smarter’ than them or won’t want to hear from them.)
- Confident people ask for and earn what they are worth but self-doubters sell themselves short on fees or don’t negotiate their salary or raise
- Confident people write down their killer ideas then act on them, self doubters worry they will make mistakes or it won’t work out, then put it off

Dr. Melnick also adds that, “An individual who questions herself won’t live up to her potential, and be hard on herself because of it. But it’s not just individuals who suffer—businesses suffer from operational inefficiency and poor employee productivity. Parents also suffer if they worry about their inability to raise confident and productive children.”

Dr. Melnick is on a mission to equip business professionals with fast confidence to earn more and accomplish their dreams within weeks, even in these difficult times. She demonstrates her techniques on a Webinar entitled Confidence at the Core: 3 Steps to Own the Room, Earn What you are Worth, and Ensure your Hard Work Leads to Success.
