Day 3 – Speaking With Confidence

“Provide growth with your confidence, influence as many humble minds as you can.

Your voice is one of the most excellent tools you can possess.  It can help and pump up everyone around you, and it can also hurt people.  Words that hurt can be worse than a punch.  One is easily forgotten, and one could be remembered for a long time.

Today's message is about standing out from the positive words that are ministered.  When you speak with clarity, volume, conviction, and support, whether you’re answering a question, stating an opinion, or simply introducing yourself.  Passive people whisper.  Leaders project.  Standing out means allowing your voice to be heard, not apologetically, but confidently.  Speak as if your words matter… because they do.

There is a difference between speaking with confidence to stand out with an ego and standing out to be supportive and concerned.  The ego is an obstruction that will always get in our way.  Never use pride or ego to stand out; you will only stand apart from everyone else and not in a good way.  Do you swear to stand out as a way of emphasizing your speech, and showing people how strong you are inside?  This is ego-driven, or do you use words that will reflect the actual person inside?

Stand out as though your words will be written down and looked at by your mother.  Would she be proud?

​The confidence you share with others is the catalyst for helping others around you!
