Belief in Yourself is Magic!

I was thinking of a quote on magic because it is close to Halloween. I love the idea of magic. The word invokes a feeling of excitement and possibility for me. 

One definition of the word Magic is, an extraordinary power or influence seemingly from a supernatural source. That still fits with Goethe's quote above. Believing in yourself does give you "extraordinary power or influence."

We have all had the experience of being in the presence of someone who believes in his or her self. It is such a compelling quality. Confident people attract others to them. They seem capable of achieving whatever they desire. It is truly "magic."

So how do we acquire this confidence which seems to be the magical elixir of life. One way to do it is to face a fear. Anytime we have to stretch outside our comfort zone, we grow. The more challenging the stretch and the more often we do it, the more confidence we gain.

What is one fear you could face, one stretch could do today to help build your confidence? If you do something, let me know in the comments section! The more confident people there are in the world who truly believe in themselves, the more magical our world will become.
