Description

A collection of musings to motivate and inspire readers in need of a dose of self-confidence or a quick pick-me-up.

We all want to be the type of person who marches into a meeting brimming with self-confidence, who meets new people without thinking, "What do they think about me", who calmly looks over a room when making a killer speech and isn't intimidated by all those eyes staring back. But all too often, crippling self-doubt creeps in. In this collection of self-esteem boosting mamixs and pithy, pocket-sized pep talks from successful people in a multitude of fields, this book says "you can do it!"

"Just speak very loudly and quickly, and state your position with utter conviction, as the French do, and you'll have a marvelous time!" -Julia Child
