Confidence isn't something you wait around to feel. It's something you build.
In Part Two of You Don't Have to Believe Everything You Think, Doug breaks down why real confidence comes from evidence—the training you completed, the promises you kept, the reps you stacked, and the work you've actually put in.
We dig into the research behind self-efficacy and performance, why athletes try to "borrow" confidence they haven't earned, and a simple 7-Day Evidence Stack you can use to start building trust in yourself.
We also tackle one of the biggest problems in rodeo: unrealistic timelines. Maybe you're not behind. Maybe you're three years into something that takes eight or ten years to become great at.
Stop putting a three-year deadline on a ten-year goal.
Act first. Keep the promise. Collect the receipt. Repeat.
