Reflect on and embrace your achievements

Challenge 2
Replace negative self-talk with positive self-talk
Challenge 2 - Replace negative self-talk with positive self-talk
Think of how you would describe yourself to another person and list your most used words in the journal. Spotted any negative ones?
Try to approach them from a different perspective by asking yourself, “What would my best friend say? For example, if you listed ‘slow decision maker’, consider that instead, you are a ‘considerate decision maker’. Be honest with yourself and truly step outside of your comfort zone - share this exercise with others! Don't forget to tag #IAmRemarkable
Challenge 3
Create an action plan for your dream goal
Challenge 3 - Create an action plan for your dream goal
Write down 1 big aspiration you’ve always had on your bucket list, and make a 10 step action plan to reach it including dates you’d like to complete each step by. This technique can help you visualise your goal, and make it seem far more achievable which will boost your confidence and internal motivation to succeed.
Don’t forget to tick off the steps as you complete them to keep yourself accountable! Encourage others to strive toward their goals too. Don't forget to tag #IAmRemarkable
Challenge 4
Make each day count
Challenge 4 - Make each day count
Break down your day into 5 simple steps – big or small. This can be something as simple as reading, exercising, meditating or taking a look at your action plan to see if there’s anything you can achieve today! Tick them off as you complete each one accordingly and at the end of the day take a moment to appreciate what you have achieved.
Share this tip on social media and it may help someone else feel empowered too! Don't forget to tag #IAmRemarkable
Challenge 5
Advocate for others
Challenge 5 - Advocate for others
Introduce a 3 step approach to actively amplify the voices of those who are less well represented and ensure every voice is heard. The first step is to make sure you attribute ideas correctly, then acknowledge accomplishments and finally, try asking probing questions to understand them better.
Think about a great achievement that a peer, friend or family member has recently accomplished - take a note and don't forget to remind them how remarkable they are.
Invite others to do the same. Tag them on social and tell them why you are impressed! Don't forget to tag #IAmRemarkable
Challenge 6
Look for role models to mimic and learn from
Challenge 6 - Look for role models to mimic and learn from
Look for role models that are doing a great job at self-promotion and are confident in themselves. Choose people that inspire you – this could be a family member, someone at work, or even a public figure.
List 3 people that motivate you to improve your self-promotion ability - be specific and add exactly what selected role models are doing right to achieve their goals. The more specific you get the more implementable it will be in your everyday life!
Invite others to do the same. Don't forget to tag #IAmRemarkable
Challenge 7
Gather feedback and learn from it
Challenge 7 - Gather feedback and learn from it
Have a sincere conversation with your peers, family, and friends about how they perceive you; then spend some time evaluating their feedback. The next step is to list the invaluable insights into 5 strengths and 5 areas of improvement to become your ‘ideal self’.
And don’t just stop here, turn this feedback process into a regular habit! The more you do it, the bigger the benefits you’ll see. Encourage others to do the same. Don't forget to tag #IAmRemarkable
Challenge 8
Make self-reflection a habit
Challenge 8 - Make self-reflection a habit
Even if this is the last challenge of this confidence-boosting adventure, the work doesn't stop there. Take 15 minutes to reflect on what you’ve achieved during this challenge, and write down at least one thing that made you feel proud. Make a habit of doing it by continuously reflecting at the end of every week - before you know it, you’ll find yourself adding more and more to your list of achievements from Challenge 1.
