Confidence

in #life7 years ago

Where does it come from? What is this word we speak of?

In the past few years, I have grown as a person. People have told me I got wiser, is that because I'm just older? I know I'm still very cocky, but I do think when I'm cocky, it isn't baseless, there is always substance to back it up and I'm pretty sure it was the other way around when I was little, although still cocky, I was such a child?

The talk of confidence just comes from experiencing something and I'm not even going to lie but making mistakes along the way will definitely teach you a lot, but succeeding at something will make you want to learn and do more, it's the way it works. People who make more mistakes and keeping in mind that they're learning from it and will try their hardest not to repeat that same mistake again, are definitely going to make it in life and they know it.

Over the years, my confidence along with me getting skinnier and taller also boosted. Twenty year old me got nothing on fifteen year old timid me, I can definitely tell you that.

There are a lot of things that I'd like to mention that made me boost my confidence but this post is not about that, this post is about sharing a story and letting other people know that their main role in life should be to focus on building up your confidence because when you do that, no matter what you want to end up doing, you will have the confidence to do it.

I'll leave it at that, thanks guys!
