this can be also said as confidence . but "overly confidence" in oneself .. could be good or bad at times .. but not having confidence will also have an effect on a person ... Me i a moderate... i am confident only at certain places otherwise i am just a follower ... sometimes ... i just have to hide my confidence and pretend to be a follower just to avoid hurting peoples feeling, as they are over confident and think they are right in everything they do share your thoughts

I think having confidence in yourself is important but having balance between caring for yourself and caring for others is even more important. People should believe in what they are able to do but also allow people to help. It's hard to have complete balance. People I met usually completely takes over or only listens to others.

In a lot of situation, that is very important, because if you can not believe in yourself, you won't believe in anybody else. So in order to solve a problem for example, you need to be "overly confidence" as you said.

Depends on the situation. Before, I used to believe that too much of this is bad, since others can easily get intimidated. However, lately I realized that it's not that bad after all, especially if you need the extra boost not for the sake of what others will think... but to basically boost yourself. I myself have experienced times...wherein I want to help myself believe that I am better of others... I even ask my friends for confidence boosters and they never failed to help me.

hi kryzell .. yes confidence in moderation is really important ... as you said people will be intimidated by us if we show our confidence to them ... i am intimidated by others at times .. and i do want to show them i am not "weak" but i just do not want to be at the same level as them ...
