Published: Sept. 1, 2022, 4 a.m.

b"James Smith is a fitness influencer and the two-time best-selling author of Not a Life Coach and Not a Diet Book. His no holds barred approach to fitness advice makes him unlike any other fitness influencer today, and now he\\u2019s bringing his unique philosophy to improving people\\u2019s confidence. According to James, we\\u2019ve been getting self confidence and how to achieve it all wrong. Confidence is not a surefire belief in ourselves to achieve great things, but rather confidence is being at peace with the idea of losing or things going wrong. When you know it isn\\u2019t the end of the world, you realise losing isn\\u2019t the same as being defeated. Like James\\u2019 brutally honest fitness advice, there\\u2019s no quick fix to confidence, or any miracle cure. James starts, like he always does, by looking at himself honestly - and truthfully - in the mirror, and all he asks is we do the same as well. James\\u2019 book is out today.
