Confidence

Think about, and if you like write down, what confidence means to you. What do confident people do that unconfident people do not?What would you do differently if you were confident?

• assurance: freedom from doubt; belief in yourself and your abilities; 
• a feeling of trust (in someone or something);

Another factor that is just as important as confidence is ability.  I don't care how confident someone is to do open heart surgery but if they lack the technical skill, they will not be able to achieve their goals.  

Confident people:

• stay at tasks longer
• don't give up as easily
• have faith in themselves and their abilities
• have an action plan
• Lay the groundwork
• look at the situation from an optimal angle.
• principle driven.

If I were more confident, I would follow my goals and dreams.
