What is ‘confidence’?
Some people associate confidence with arrogance and the notion that confident people always know better than anyone else, get their way all the time and dominate others into submission. In fact, confidence is not about being arrogant, manipulative or dominant. True confidence means trusting and believing in your abilities realistically because you are secure about who you are and what you can do.
If you are confident, you have good self-esteem and self-possession and are particular about what’s right (and wrong) for you. You don’t wear the latest fashions just to fit in; you wear what makes you feel good. You don’t take on a job because you think you can’t do it; you assess your skills, see if you can learn more and then evaluate the position. Because confident people are secure, they don’t blame others for their mistakes, admit when they’ve done wrong, communicate clearly, and accept past circumstances rather than being bitter about them. This makes confident people attractive as partners and employees, which further helps smooth their path in life.
