The Confidence You Need in Life

​As humans, it is normal that we always feel as if we lack something. It can be lack of talent, compassion, or the ability to excel in anything. However, these thoughts we have may not be entirely accurate. Maybe, we are just too hard on ourselves because we are our worst critic.  Though, changing our mindset may be the key to gaining the confidence we need to succeed in life.

Competence in Confidence
It takes competition for confidence to work. Though, it is not healthy to always compare yourself to others; it is critical to know where to stand. Where do you want to be on the social ladder? Or do you want to focus more on self-improvement rather than wonder what the society thinks? Competition is beneficial if you know how to make yourself better than self-pitying because you can't do as well as others.
 
Let these competitions help you move forward by gaining experiences along the way. Besides, self-confidence is built through accomplishments.
 
Practice to See Results
It is one thing to keep telling yourself that you are confident or any other positive things you can think of yourself. But, self-confidence is a work in progress and not just all talk. You can set your mind into these mantras, but it can be just that and no substance at all. Self-confidence is not just about your mentality, but also how you manifest these thoughts into your life. It takes actions before you can see a result.
 
There will be days when you will feel not confident at all. You may relapse on some days and then go back in strengthening your mindset again. Always do and repeat whenever necessary.
 
Make Up Excuses All You Want
If you start with excuses, you won’t get things done. Self-confidence does not happen overnight because it is not just about affirmation. You can’t tell yourself one night that you are confident and expect to feel the same way the next day. It is a constant step forward like an affirmation plus action. When you succeed in putting on the work; that is when you will gain confidence continuously.
 
It is essential to have self-awareness all the time. Introspection should take place every day, so we can evaluate ourselves and make things better for us.
