I must say that I did not know who this guy is so I Google’d him.
Anyway, independently of who he is I think it is pretty nice the way he is teaching his daughter how to be self-confident. If we agree that the most important part of a person’s foundation is built at home I have no doubt in my mind that his daughter, Shayla, will become a leader and an inspiring woman (if he is doing these kind of exercises frequently with her).
If you did not have such a supporting father/mother, no worries. Remember, it is not your fault if you were raised in a macho society/household but it is entirely your responsibility if you live and die with those same values.
So, take a look at the video and notice his body language. What does his body language convey to you?
Now, try repeating the following sentences to yourself. Do it in front of a mirror and look straight to your own eyes. It does not matter if you do not believe them at the beginning because the more you repeat them they will come to you. You will see that at one point you will start feeling them and, most importantly, living them:
- I am amazing
- I am significant
- I am smart
- I am beautiful
- I am special
- I am great
- I LOVE MYSELF
