Confidence: The Key To Everything
Published: Sun, 10/02/11
So I'm talking with Karen, a lady
I've known for about 15 years.
Of all things, we get onto the
topic of juggling.
She and another guy who had
joined the conversation were
interested in why I had learned
in the first place.
After all, it's not something
that's in the mainstream.
So I told them the truth...
I learned when I was twenty
years old and had zero
self-confidence.
A guy I knew, who was confident
and popular was doing it. My
twenty year old brain made the connection...
"If I could learn to juggle, I will
be popular and confident like Stu."
So Stu taught me. I ran with it,
and developed it into the training
and development program I use
to this day.
And of course I wrote a book about
what happens when people find ways
to discover their own playfulness and
confidence that same way
I told Karen the story, and the reply
was interesting...
"Larry, I can't picture you without confidence."
Now I've gotten used to the idea of being
confident. For the past seven years or so
I've become one of the most self-confident
people I know.
It's a great feeling, knowing the force of your
personality is something that gets people's
attention.
And it's even better knowing I use that
personal confidence to make a positive
difference in the world around me.
It is different from how I grew up!
If I ever needed more proof of that, it came
from a high school girlfriend.
We connected on Facebook a few months ago.
She told me she was amazed at how powerful
and self-confident I seemed to be.
Again, fun to read. It reminded me how far
I've come.

Whatever success you're chasing...
business, career, relationships, health
- any of them - you wind up attracting that
success by the CONFIDENCE you bring
to the playing field.
And that confidence doesn't have to be
in a big, loud personality.
It certainly doesn't have to come from knowing
how to juggle - though I highly recommend it.
The confidence comes from KNOWING
you are worthy of living a good life.
A life filled with love, money, and peace.
Get the difference between KNOWING and
BELIEVING. Two different things altogether.
Belief leaves room for doubt.
Knowing is eternal, permanent, safe.
Even if you don't have what you want,
you know you're capable of achieving it.
And you feel safe enough to want more.
Get it?
People with that kind of confidence
don't have to know all the answers.
They know a way will show up.
And they know they're capable of
playing along with whatever life
puts in their path.
Some mistake that kind of confidence
for ARROGANCE.
And of course, that's insecurity.
That's the ego taking on a big,
loud personality to hide its own fear.
Confidence.
It's sexy.
It's loving.
It's truthful.
And it's something you can learn.
HOW TO RECEIVE is where I teach you
to be confident.
I developed the techniques over a twenty
year counseling career, and as a professional
trainer and entertainer.
(Yeah, there's that juggling thing again.)
I developed the techniques by watching
what worked with my students and clients.
Some were in their teens, some were in their 70's.
What worked for all of them was getting that
CONFIDENCE, no matter what was going on
in their lives that moment.
They started feeling better.
They started feeling sexy.
They started feeling the desire for more...
And they started feeling like they were
capable of getting it.
I'm taking on students for HOW TO RECEIVE
right now.
People who want more...
But aren't so far gone that they feel hopeless.
People who are willing to play along, meet
me on the dance floor of life, and are willing to
invest in themselves.
Take a look at HOW TO RECEIVE.
2012 is going to be a big year
for a lot of people.
Doesn't matter how good or bad your 2011 is.
It just matters that you're willing to
become CONFIDENT.
And attractive.
And an open vessel to receiving.
Your Confident Friend,
Larry
If you ever thought you were too far gone...
If you ever thought confidence was only
for people who had it since they were little...
If you ever thought confidence and being
attractive was something you either had
or you didn't...
Then you should have seen me as a kid.
And even as a young adult.
Small, scared, frail. Getting old before my time.
I see the pictures of me, even in my early thirties.
Quiet desperation.
I could help others, but had a hard time helping
myself.
Then I made a deal with my fear.
I set it aside while I learned to think, feel and act
differently.
And by the time I was done, there was no need
for the fear in my life.
Or the worry, which is just another form of fear.
So they just left on their own.
Is it time to replace fear with confidence?
Is it time to replace disappointment with confidence?
Is it time to replace anger with confidence?
Meet me on the dance floor.
