Title: FORGED CONFIDENCE: The Eric Kim Method
Core idea: Confidence isn’t a mood. It’s a skill. And skills are trained with reps.
The Promise
By the end, you’ll be able to:
- Walk into any room with calm dominance
- Speak with clean, simple certainty
- Create + publish without permission
- Stop negotiating with fear
- Build a daily confidence system you can’t “forget”
Format Options
Option A —
2 Hours (High-Intensity)
- Prime (10 min)
- Belief Engineering (25 min)
- Fear Reps (35 min)
- Social Power Protocols (25 min)
- Publish Ritual + Vow (25 min)
Option B —
Half-Day (4 Hours, Deep Work)
Adds: identity rewrite, rejection training, live street/real-world challenge, and a 30-day protocol.
The Workshop Structure (Half-Day)
0) ENTRY RITUAL — “THE SWITCH” (5 min)
Everyone stands. Phones away.
Rule: “Today, no self-insults. Only construction.”
Phrase:
“I do not wait to feel ready. I act, and readiness follows.”
1) BODY = CONFIDENCE ENGINE (20 min)
Confidence starts in the body: posture, breath, movement, presence.
Practice: The Triad
- Feet planted
- Long spine
- Slow breath (4 in / 6 out)
Micro-drill:
Walk across the room like you own the floor. No rush. No apology.
Anchor:
“My body leads. My mind follows.”
2) BELIEF ENGINEERING — “WHO AM I?” (35 min)
You stop trying to “feel confident” and start deciding who you are.
Exercise: Identity Statement (write it once, then read it out loud)
- “I am the type of person who ______.”
- “I do ______ daily, no matter what.”
- “I don’t negotiate with ______.”
The Eric Kim Frame:
- Confidence = clarity + repetition
- Insecurity = unclear values + inconsistent action
Tool: “One-Word North Star”
Pick ONE: POWER / BEAUTY / TRUTH / COURAGE / FREEDOM
Everything you do today serves that word.
3) FEAR REPS — “DO IT SCARED” (60 min)
Fear doesn’t vanish. You get stronger than it.
Drill A: The 10-Second Launch
You get 10 seconds to start the thing you avoid:
- say the sentence
- ask the question
- hit publish
- approach the person
- raise your hand
Rule: once you start, you can adjust. But you must start fast.
Drill B: Rejection Training (Gamified)
You do 5 asks that might get “no.”
Examples:
- “Can I get your opinion on this?”
- “Can I take a quick portrait?”
- “Can I ask you one question?”
- “Can you help me choose A vs B?”
- “Can I go first?”
Score it like a lifter:
- Attempt = win
- “No” = rep
- “Yes” = bonus
Anchor:
“Rejection is proof I’m in the arena.”
4) SOCIAL POWER — “SPEAK LIKE A HAMMER” (40 min)
Confidence in speech is short sentences + clean delivery.
The 3-Sentence Power Pattern
- Claim: “This is what I’m doing.”
- Reason: “Because it matters.”
- Ask: “Here’s what I want.”
Examples:
- “I’m building my body and my art. Because I refuse mediocrity. I want your honest feedback.”
- “I’m publishing daily. Because consistency is power. I want you to read this and tell me the strongest line.”
The “No Explanation” Drill
Say your preference without justification:
- “I’m choosing this.”
- “No.”
- “Not today.”
- “I’m done.”
Goal: calm, not aggressive. Stillness is authority.
5) CREATOR CONFIDENCE — “PUBLISH OR DIE” (45 min)
Confidence explodes when you ship.
Live Output:
Everyone creates ONE thing right now:
- a 200-word manifesto
- a 1-minute voice note
- a photo + caption
- a single bold headline
Template: The One-Paragraph Manifesto
- “I believe ______.”
- “I reject ______.”
- “I commit to ______ for 30 days.”
- “Watch me.”
Then: post it (or schedule it). No perfection. Only power.
6) THE VOW — “30 DAYS OF FORGED CONFIDENCE” (10 min)
Each person leaves with a non-negotiable protocol:
Daily Protocol (10–20 min/day)
- 2 minutes: posture + breath
- 5 minutes: write one bold sentence (“Today I will…”)
- 10 minutes: one fear rep (ask / publish / approach / speak)
Rule: Never miss twice.
Final line:
“I don’t chase confidence. I manufacture it.”

The Confidence Scorecard

Fear Rep Menu (pick one daily)
