Hello everyone, I'm here again and I hope that you are all doing very well today.
Confidence is the self-assurance you have. Whenever you feel that you can trust yourself in whatever you are doing it means that you have confidence. Confidence can also be defined as the trust you have in yourself that no matter how big anything is, that you have the ability to handle it.
On the other hand, I can say that self-esteem is when you know your worth and work towards keeping your standards. Sometimes people usually mistake self-esteem for pride, so whenever they see people acting in a way just because they know their worth, they would always say that the other person is proud.
Self-esteem comes before confidence, and these two are gotten from the capacity you have, and it takes you a lot of work to have these two. If you want to be confident in yourself or have self-esteem, then you need to embrace personal growth and development, as these would make it very possible for you to be what you desire to be.
There are times you need to let go of so many things so as to get what you want. There are some favours you will not take again and there some jokes will may likely not get involved again. It is pertinent to know that, if you need to have confidence and self-esteem, you need to build yourself to a point of not compromising, just set your standards and make sure that you stay on them. Let people know you for good things, become outstanding and do well to work on your emotions.
Another thing you need to do is to learn how to complete your task because as complete these tasks, it gives you the confidence to take up another task as it will build your confidence. You will leave to know that you can do anything at anytime if you want to.
Another thing you need to do, is to build quality relationships with quality people. You need to know who to relate with, let it be that you are relating with people of high standard with positive minds that will help learn, relearn and unlearn. Those people will serve agents of Competition for you. I know that some of the time, people would say that they are not in any Competition but in real sense they are in a competition with other people. You are not the only person that is doing what you are doing so as such you need work on yourself so that you will not be left behind, because those people that are doing that same thing, are learning everyday and they would want to outsmart other people so as to get more out of life.
To have confidence and self-esteem, you need to work for it and make sure that you do not give up on it. You cannot just get something like that; you need to desire it and work for it too. Build yourself to the point of being proud of yourself.
I invite @tenderdaniel, @johnuko and @daraclem to join this initiative.
