Self-confidence
Self-confidence is important for many reasons. First and foremost ,when you're self-confident, you believe in yourself. You have full faith in your abilities and in your decision-making skills. You will become successful in life.
Then, how do you gain confidence?
The great news is that no one is born confident. There's no such a thing as a confident baby. We all have the ability to become confident people and develop sincere self-confidence no matter how we grow up, where we go to school, where we live, or where we work. To put t another way, confidence is an equal playing field, something that's available to everyone.
That said, the primary way to gain self-confidence is trying and failing. Trying and failing leads to self-confidence. It might seem against reason but you become more confident the more you try and fail. Confident people are not necessarily perfect. It doesn't mean they never make mistakes. All it means is that they trust in their abilities. And the way you build trust in yourself is to keep trying again and again no matter how many times you fail.
Here's a simple example: baking a turkey. It seems hard at first. You're likely not confident at all that you can bake a huge turkey. Maybe you burn it the first time you try . Or, maybe you overcook it. Maybe it tastes so bad that your family has to order a meal for Thanksgiving . But ,if you keep trying again and again, research, study, seek advice from mentors on baking turkey, eventually you can become proficient at it. Then, one day, you'll be so confident in your ability to make a turkey that you'll be the one volunteering to bring one to gatherings.
Once again: no one is born confident. It comes from trying and failing and trying again. Confidence comes from years of trials. The importance of self-confidence is that those who have it are the ones who have made the most mistakes and don't mind it at all because they know the mistakes lead to their proficiency and then eventual success.
