If You Feel LOST, LAZY, & UNMOTIVATED In Life, WATCH THIS! | Mel Robbins

Internal Struggles

Mel Robbins shares her personal journey of overcoming self-doubt and feelings of inadequacy. Despite her success, she reveals that feelings of unworthiness still linger, rooted in childhood experiences of feeling invisible and not good enough 1. Robbins explains that her drive to achieve was a coping mechanism to gain attention and praise, which insulated her from rejection. She emphasizes the importance of self-love, noting that many people forget to love themselves amidst the pursuit of external validation 2.

I think the journey of your whole life is figuring out how to truly like and love yourself.

--- Mel Robbins

Lewis Howes echoes this sentiment, sharing his own struggles with self-acceptance and the transformative power of embracing one's true self.

   

Building Confidence

Building confidence, according to Mel Robbins, is about taking action despite self-doubt. She argues that confidence is not a feeling but a willingness to try, emphasizing that action precedes confidence 3. Robbins highlights the power of decision-making, noting that pivotal life changes often stem from a single decisive moment. She stresses that everyone has the power to change their life by making conscious decisions 4.

Confidence isn't the absence of self-doubt. It's being willing to try even though you doubt yourself.

--- Mel Robbins

Lewis Howes supports this view, acknowledging the importance of taking action to build confidence and sharing his own experiences of overcoming fear through action.
