Making Crafts A Great Confidence Booster

I was just thinking about one of my favorite students, Nicole whose only 12 years old and the day i met her. She's a soft spoken girl so I remember when I asked her what her dreams were I had to nudge her a little bit to really  think about what she enjoys doing. 




My job is to help young girls like her take small steps towards their dreams while building  their confidence at the same time. I help them break down their goals into small little goals that can be worked on in the present. For Nicole, all she wanted was to go for a school trip that costed $100.

I then taught her a simple skill which is making name bracelets. The entire training involves learning how to create the product from start to finish, packaging it and exactly how to sell it.

I was thrilled one day to see her taking orders for name bracelets at a local get together because she needed to raise money for a school trip. I was impressed beyond words and when I introduced her as an up and coming entrepreneur she quickly corrected me stating that she was an entrepreneur!

Long story short, she made $96.5 in less than a month after I trained her and her confidence had grown by leaps! For her to speak publicly and say that she was actually an entrepreneur and not an up and coming one is testament to how simple skills taught to young people can boost their confidence tremendously.



You too can build confidence or help your daughter or son do the same. I'm working on the online training so if you're interested, sign up here.
