The Anatomy of Confidence (Verse 55)
Listen now
Description
I am sometimes asked how I have so much confidence?  The truth is right before I go out to speak in front of hundreds of people I am often terrified.  But over the years I have found ways to get myself to do things which are hard for me.  This episode (16) I discuss with Imam Magid what Surat Yusuf teaches us about building confidence.  How did Yusuf, a former enslaved person and prisoner, find the confidence to say “Put me in charge of the nation’s storehouses: I shall manage them prudently and carefully.” (12: 55)?   You will learn 📖 How to use the power of intention to build confidence. 📖 When to lean into your identity to build up your confidence. 📖 The advantage of focusing on the greater cause when confronting personal challenges. 📖 The role of generosity in growing in confidence. 📖 How living in our integrity roots it in self assurance.    If you’re enjoying this podcast, please review it on your podcasting platform.  It helps more than you know.    @Quran.Conversations is sponsored by Fawakih, an online learning platform for Quranic Arabic which I myself use.  Start your journey in unlocking the language of the Quran.  Go to Fawakih.org/   We hope this podcast encourages your own reflective journey with the Quran.
