Gen X has been dubbed by LinkedIn, 2019 as the generation who have in some ways gotten stuck in their job or family roles and don’t have the confidence to pursue a change in career or circumstance. 

As a result, our Gen can be more disconnected at work.

With all the doom and gloom, Gen X are also up against the boomers who apparently live in the past and the millennials who are scared for the future. Gen X are said to be more present.

Self confidence is our belief in our ability. We know our strengths and weaknesses well . We can give ourselves realistic goals and manage criticism. 

So how do we snag more confidence? 

  • Make a list of your achievements to date; work and personal. Let these sink in

  • Say no.

  • Stay away from negativity

  • Give yourself a break , whatever that looks like.

  • Keep you social connections

  • Get outside, this is such a simple one but huge

  • Start a well-being challenge of your own.
