This month's topic: Confidence

“Life is ten percent what you experience and ninety percent how you respond to it.” ― Dorothy M. Neddermeyer

We know what confident people look like, the advantages they get, and that it's something worth emulating. How do you get there, though?

Confidence is knowing what you're good at, the value you provide, and acting in a way that conveys that to others. The contrast is arrogance which typically involves believing you are better in a particular area than you are, or low self-esteem which involves believing you're less valuable than you think.

Confidence leads to success. When you believe in yourself you are more likely to take action. To stand up and seize the moment. When you have confidence in your capabilities you approach difficult tasks as challenges to be mastered rather than as threats to be avoided.
