What does Confidence mean?
Trust in your ability to handle what comes. Confidence is self-trust, not certainty.
Another way of seeing Confidence
We think confidence comes first and action follows. It's the other way round. Confidence is built from evidence: the risk you survived, the promise you kept, the thing that scared you that you did anyway. You can't think your way into it. You can only act your way in, one small proof at a time.
Confidence in relationships
Truly confident people make room for others to shine, because someone else's light doesn't dim their own. Notice who makes you feel bigger — and be that for someone.
Confidence in everyday life
Write down three hard things you've already handled. Then do one small thing today that makes you slightly nervous, and add it to the list.
Carry this with you
Confidence is built from evidence, not thoughts.
