Confidence isn’t built in the mirror — it’s built in the trenches of consistency. In this Battle Ready Series episode, Coach Rob breaks down how to rebuild trust with yourself when your confidence has hit rock bottom.

From broken promises to lost momentum, this is the wake-up call every warrior needs. You’ll learn why confidence isn’t about being loud or cocky — it’s about keeping promises to yourself, one small win at a time.

Coach Rob walks you through the 3 core steps to rebuilding confidence:
1️⃣ Stack small wins daily – Start with promises you can keep.
2️⃣ Eliminate negotiations – Stop arguing with your weaker self.
3️⃣ Keep private promises before you go public – Do it for you, not for validation.

This episode is a reminder that motivation is temporary, but integrity lasts forever. Real confidence is earned through repetition, discipline, and quiet follow-through — not hype.

🎯 Your Mission for the Week:
Write down three promises — one for your body, one for your mind, and one for your discipline. Keep them for 7 days straight. No misses. No excuses. That’s how you rebuild trust.

If this hit home, share it with a friend who needs to hear it.
Let’s turn pain into progress and stay Battle Ready.
