What’s the best way to build self-confidence?

View all responses

Remember the proverb “If at first you don’t succeed, try, try again”? Or, what about “Practice makes perfect”? Today’s prompt gave rise to a number of sayings, statements, and suggestions that reveal the answer. What did they all have in common, you may be asking yourselves? I saw one commonality among the list, as I’m sure you’ve already guessed.

All those sayings seem to be encouraging us to do one thing… don’t quit!

If you want to be confident about a thing, you have to learn it, first. Then you practice and perfect your skill at it, as much as possible, right?! Don’t look at mistakes as the end, but simply, as a way to improve your skills.

And, the number one rule to having self-confidence is… don’t let others tell you that you can’t!

If you believe in your heart that you were meant to do a thing (providing it is used for good), then walk forward in faith, and do what the prompt’s title says… Just do it!
