Just because you are not feeling confident these days, you have managed to convince yourself that you are not doing well. You have confused lack of confidence with lack of progress and taken it as a sign that you must be off track. You have to know that some days you’ll feel good about what you’re doing and other days, you’ll question everything. That’s normal. Don’t let those other days erase everything you’ve already managed to figure out. You will not always feel confident because sometimes it comes back after you’ve already made the move, taken the risk or after you’ve kept going through the doubt and seen that you are still standing.
You do not need to feel certain every day to be on the right track. In fact, a lot of growth feels like confusion at first. You’re learning something new, figuring things out, just trying your best with the limited information you have. That’s mostly how progress works. It rarely feels clear while you’re in it. So just because you’re not feeling super confident right now, or even a little lost, it doesn’t mean you’re not making progress. Maybe you’re just in the middle of figuring things out.
