Self-doubt can hold you back, making you second-guess yourself or even stop working on your goals.
I felt it when starting my fidget jewelry brand, and I wish I had known these steps sooner.
1. Acknowledge It
The first step is to recognize that self-doubt is normal.
Everyone feels it.
But self-doubt is just a feeling, not a fact.
Feeling unsure doesn’t mean you’re not capable.
It just means you're stepping outside your comfort zone - and that’s exactly where growth happens.
2. Focus on Progress
Next, shift your focus to how far you’ve already come instead of how far you still have to go.
It’s easy to focus on what you haven’t done yet, but every small step forward matters.
Pro tip: Keep a “wins” list.
Write down every achievement (big or small), so if you start to feel self-doubt, you have proof that you're making progress.
3. Revisit Your Why
Your purpose is bigger than your fear.
Remind yourself why you started, what impact you want to make, and what excites you about your goal.
When you reconnect with your “why,” it becomes easier to push past self-doubt and take action.
Why This Works
These steps work because they shift your mindset.
Self-doubt thrives on fear and uncertainty, but when you acknowledge it, focus on progress, and reconnect with your purpose, you take back control.
Your thoughts shape your reality - so the more you remind yourself of your capability, the more confident you become.
Bonus Tip: Use your fidget ring to ground yourself when you feel self-doubt
Spinning or fidgeting with your ring can serve as a physical reminder to pause, reset, and refocus.
The motion can be calming, giving you a second to breathe, shift your mindset, and remind yourself that you can do this.
Final Thoughts
If self-doubt is holding you back, know that you’re not alone - and that you can move past it.
Acknowledge it. Focus on progress. Reconnect with your why.
The more you practice these steps, the easier it gets.
You’ve got this. ❤️
