who you want to be.
My name is Rob Dial, and the podcast starts now.
Welcome to today's episode. If you have not yet done so, hit that subscribe button so that you

If you are interested in one-on-one coaching with me, which means you and I speaking on the phone every single week, just you and I, send me an email, rob at robdial.com. This is once again,
not for somebody who is just starting off on their path. I recommend that you make at least
six figures, that you are stable in a position that
you've been in for a while. And what I am really going to come in and do is shake things up and
break you out of the comfort zone that you've been stuck in and hold you accountable and make sure
that we're hitting the goals that you want to hit for yourself. So if you've been stuck in a plateau
at the point that you're at right now, and you feel like you need an extra kick in the pants,
you need someone to hold you accountable. you need someone to help you break free from the self-limiting beliefs that
you've been stuck in your entire life, send me an email, rob at robdial.com. I will be the one
that will help you get through it, hopefully. And in order to do so, what you will do is you
will send in an email. I will then respond to your email and I will send you an application
to make sure that it is right. And if it is, we can hop on a phone
call, have a chat, see if it works out. So send me an email rob at robdial.com and
I will send you over the application. Okay, today I'm gonna talk about why you
should stop believing in yourself. Now let me explain exactly what I mean by
this. Most people don't get to where they want to go or sometimes they don't even start
because deep down they just don't believe 100% in themselves.
They don't believe that they can do it.
But I'm going to share a little bit of a secret with you.
You don't have to believe in yourself in order to take action.
to believe in yourself in order to take action. You don't have to believe in yourself in order to take action. Most people think that they have to believe in themselves before they start going
down this road. And I'm going to be honest with you. Most of the time, especially in the very
beginning, you're not going to believe in yourself. you're going to doubt yourself all of the time you're going to doubt your skills you're
going to doubt your mindset you're going to doubt the path that you're going down
the the the road that you're traveling you're going to every single thing you
could possibly think about if you're going down a journey if you're following
your passion if you're becoming an entrepreneur if you're going down a journey, if you're following your passion, if you're becoming
an entrepreneur, if you're starting a job, most of the time you're not going to believe in yourself.
The only thing that's going to keep you going is your excitement for the goal that you're going
towards. Most of the time you're not going to believe in yourself. Let me tell you where belief comes from. Belief comes from results. But the problem with that
is that you can't get results unless you take action. You can't get results unless you take
action. And therefore you can't believe in yourself until you get results. So therefore,
most of the time when you're in the very beginning stages of whether
it's a business or whether it's you're following your passion or you're trying out in a new sport
or you're starting to play a new instrument or whatever it might be, you're not going to believe
in yourself 100%. But that doesn't matter because you have to get the results in order to get the
belief. So therefore, you don't have to believe in yourself in order to get the belief. So therefore you don't have to
believe in yourself in order to go out and take action. You don't have to
believe in yourself in order to push yourself to go towards whatever it is
that you want. What's going to keep you going is this. Clear goals number one and
number two is a strong why behind those goals. That's what's going to get you going in the very beginning.
Not your belief in yourself.
If you have a goal that is so clear and you're so driven to get there,
then belief doesn't actually matter.
Belief doesn't matter at all.
If I told you that you had to make a million dollars this year,
you probably wouldn't believe in yourself too much.
If I said,
what's the percentage chance? I always say these on webinars when I'm with people. What's the
percentage chance of you making a million dollars legally this year? Most people say, oh, it's 5%,
it's 10%, it's 0.1%, it's 0%. And then I say, what's the percentage chance of you making a million dollars this year
if your entire family's life is on the line? And everybody says it's 100%. And what that shows you
is that you don't have to have a belief in yourself that you can make a million dollars.
What you have to have is a strong why towards that goal, why you're going towards that goal,
why you're going to push yourself to get there, right? If your entire family's life is on the
line, you don't have to believe in yourself at all. All you have to do is just take action
and wake up every single day and eventually you will get there. But that also shows you how much
we restrict ourselves when the only thing that
changes between 30 seconds of, oh, there's no way I can make a million dollars this year.
And I will 100% make a million dollars this year is not the belief that somebody has in themselves.
It's the why behind what it is that they're going for. So when you're new at something,
when you're trying something new, when you're becoming an entrepreneur, when you're leaving
your job, when you're becoming a parent, all of these things, you're not going to believe in yourself.
But you don't have to believe in yourself in order to create action.
In order to get belief, you have to get results.
But in order to get results, you have to create action.
action. Therefore, your first job more than anything else is to get your butt off the couch,
realize that believing yourself means absolutely nothing. All you have to do is just keep going and just keep getting up and keep pushing. Eventually, you're going to start to get results
and eventually you're going to start to believe in yourself more. But that belief is not a
prerequisite for getting up and doing it
and that's the one thing that you have to realize you don't have to believe in
yourself in order to be successful at something well that's it for today's
