Favorite Self Confidence Quote

Confidence comes from consistency.  Consistency is not without failure.

Definition of Self Confidence

Self confidence is just being able to do it and stop waiting for permission. 

Her Life Before the Discovery of Self Confidence

Tam was mess.  She leaned into entrepreneurship since she saw her parents succeed in that field without graduating from college.  Tam tried entrepreneurship for 17 years and part of the reason why it took long was because she did graduate from college and she felt she needed permission to start her journey.  Because her parents did not graduate from college, they were more confident to knock on doors to make that sale while Tam hesitated.

The “AHA” Moment

Tam's mom passed away and that made her realize that time does not go on forever.   She also realized that now is the time to take action.  It was in this moment that gave her the confidence to write her first book and boss up in her journey.  One of her biggest reasons she takes action is to make her mom proud.

Her Life After the Discovery of Self Confidence

Tam has been able to expand her purpose and she has more clarity than ever to boss up in her journey.
