You ever feel like you’ve done everything right…
You prepped.
You trained.
You put in the time.
…but you’re still second-guessing yourself?
That nagging voice creeps in…
“You’re not built for this”
“You don’t have what it takes”
“You can’t come through”
Let me hit you with this…
When you doubt yourself, you’re not just doubting your abilities — you’re doubting the God who gave them to you.
That’s not a humility problem. It’s a faith problem.
And that’s exactly what I’m going after in this week’s 5-Minute Drill on the Coming Up Clutch with J.R.™ show.
I’m breaking down the root of self-doubt — and it’s not what you think. Because your doubt? It’s not about lack of skill. It’s about your illusion of control. So, in this episode, I walk you through:
- Why your obsession with outcomes is feeding your fear
- The real reason your confidence crumbles under pressure
Then, I give you a 3-step strategy to stop doubting and start leading with unshakable conviction and confidence.
So, if you’re tired of playing small…
If you’re sick of shouldering pressure like it’s your job…
Then lock in to this episode.
Let’s get it!
In this episode, you’ll hear:
- Why self-doubt isn’t just a mindset issue — it’s a faith issue.
- The game-changing truth I shared with a pro athlete that helped flip his entire season.
- How Gideon’s story proves that God doesn’t call the confident — He confirms the called.
- A 3-step strategy to stop self-doubt in its tracks and move forward with conviction.
- The key difference between control and management — and how that shift unlocks freedom.
- Why verbal declarations grounded in truth are both spiritually sound and scientifically smart.
