If you’re feeling unconfident, it’s because something is out of kilter deep inside. Everything you need for unwavering confidence is stored there too. You might be just a few tweaks away from feeling incredible. One or two changes from regaining your powers and believing you can take on the world.
Here’s where you can use ChatGPT as your personal AI confidence coach, to help you get back on track in no time. Use these four prompts in order, and keep the same chat window open so it carries the information through. Implement the responses and assess how you feel after using every prompt.
How to find your inner confidence with ChatGPT
Create personalized journal questions
For every answer there is a question that retrieves it. Use ChatGPT to find the question. Tell it about how you feel right now and see its suggestions for routes to explore, for some necessary reflection that will regain your balance. The answers are within you, it’s just a case of enticing them out.
“At the moment I’m feeling [describe how you feel right now.] Create a set of questions that I can journal on, that will help me regain my inner confidence and feel more motivated to begin my day and do my work.”
Get a personal diagnosis
Any number of things could have happened in your life or work to send your confidence levels plummeting when, in reality, everything is fine. Being surrounded by media, hype and current affairs, not to mention everyone else’s worries, concerns and dramas, is enough to send the most stable entrepreneur into unhelpful thinking loops. Get ChatGPT’s diagnosis for why you have no need to question yourself with this simple prompt.
“In the last few months, these events have happened: [explain the main events of the last few months]. Can you explain why I might be feeling less confident than normal right now, and explain why I should in fact be feeling more confident.”
Find a mantra that resonates
The concept of a mantra has origins in Hinduism and Buddhism, as a word or sound that’s repeated to aid concentration in meditation. More recently, it’s come to mean a statement or slogan repeated frequently. Athletes say mantras before they compete. Business leaders say them before an important presentation. If you need a short, sharp burst of confidence, a mantra could help. Don’t find just any old mantra, get one that truly resonates with your world.
“I’m looking for a mantra that will remind me that I have everything I need within myself, for confidence and to show up without fear. My favourite artists, authors and thought-leaders are [name your favourites]. Suggest some mantras that might resonate with me, that I can repeat daily.”
Create a confidence meditation
Fake it until you make it. When you act confidently, your entire being levels up to match. Physically walking taller with your gaze up can have a domino effect on your self-esteem. But you might not feel like you can magic confidence out of nowhere in your head, the way it’s possible in your body. Bring your mind up to speed with a confidence meditation, compiled by ChatGPT, that helps you chill out, find your inner calm and feel ready to take on the day. Use a text-to-speech tool so it plays aloud while you close your eyes.
“Can you create a script for a personalized confidence meditation, for me, [your name]. This should use the information explained so far to produce a 60 second script for a meditation. This script should put my mind at ease, remind me of my inner confidence, and include a breathing or visualization exercise to help me stress and worry less. I should leave the meditation feeling ready to face the day.”
