8 Tiny Changes That Make You Seem More Competent
At some point or another, we all experience feeling inadequate or incompetent. It’s actually a super common theme in adulthood — feeling like everyone around you must have it all figured out, and you’re just floundering around taking everything as it comes.
But the truth is, having it all figured out isn’t something that just happens — it’s the result of a series of tiny-but-intentional choices you make in regards to how to live your life. In our most recent episode of The Financial Diet, Chelsea walks us through eight tiny changes you can make in your life today to start appearing more competent. It’s not about fundamentally changing who you are, but rather finessing little things that make a huge difference in how you present yourself to the world and interact with others. For instance: start using Google calendar! It’s an incredibly easy way to keep track of all of your professional and social obligations, and to hold yourself — and potentially your friends — accountable to promises you’ve made and goals you’ve set.
Head over to the TFD YouTube channel to hear the rest of the small changes you can make today to appear more competent!
