Do you have self-confidence?

Hi Pose: I agree with you. I have this problem because I'd love to recieve a feedback from a person that shows me thar I'm doing things right but that's not actually good. I think that when you do some things by your own, you start gaining the self-confidence that you need to do the things and to trust in your own instinct as you mention. ALVARO

That's for sure...I do have enough confidence to make my own decisions....but sometimes do have second thoughts.....I think I need to work on the self confidence thing!

My self confidence is being eating away by age. Things that I relied on to be true are no longer true, this makes me very unsure of my world. On the other hand many things that I felt to be true and was doubted have become matter of fact. One thing we can all count on is that this world constantly changes. Blessings

I really do feel that I am going to have a lot deal of self confidence. Granted that is not something that is built over night. Still I am rather pleased that I am going to make the right decisions. It might take a bit of trial and error a lot of time and it might take a bit of time to rather work out. However, I feel confident that in the end, when everything is all said and done, I'll do the right thing. In the end, I think that if you can believe in yourself, than mostly everything is possible. I mean it doesn't matter if the entire world is rather something that is behind you, if you're not sure, than you won't be able to really get anything done with any amount of certainty. I feel that most of the time, I can trust many of the decisions that I can make. I mean I can't make any decisions if I am not completely on board.

Before i gained a lot of self confidence and whenever i applied in those biggest buildings here i used to get in. But then I always choosy for those jobs then suddenly it became reverse that even i have in my self the word "self-confidence" it always hooked me to be not hired. So i got strong to my self and ask what went wrong? do i need to change? i shouldn't be more comfortable in the word in self confidence if i knew that i cannot act it properly

I am not a person lack of self-confidence, I fiernds always say I seems very confident of everything. But I realise that I am a little overconfident. You know it's really hard to handle the boundary of approriate self-confident and overconfident. When I have anything different with my friends on any choices , I will press them to obey my decision .

Have you noticed the great number of myLot posts about friends and friendship, and the amount of trouble these sometime dubious friends cause? In my opinion much needless trouble could be avoided if people had more self confidence. When people lack self confidence they turn to their "so called" friends for advise instead of trusting their own instincts. Forget the friends, believe in yourself, your own ability, and you will make the right choice!

Yes i have my confidence evetytime i have things to do but sometimes i feel weak to some reasons that am afraid. Afraid to reject especially if i did it once and happened that i am rejected before... I know to myself that i need to be strong at all times and this is my key to all what i want to be.. Be strong so i can handle all the things around me with confidence..

I have self-confidence but I am slow to develop where I feel I should be! I still struggle with it because alot of it still deals with my childhood. I was not nurtured proparly and I was verbally abused. So I am slow to heal and understand why I need to build up my confidence. It never ends.

Yes, I think I have some, but there are times when it dips. It all depends, but much of the time, yes, I think my confidence level is always high. But I do feel a bit low at times, but only occasionally.

Yes friend I have self confidence because I know the positive thinking and self confidence of the key of success and I suggest to all improve your self confidence because without this you cant go ahead..Yes I trust on myself I can do everything because try is always work.

I have self confidence being who I am. I confine in myself very much. I know what I can do and my potentional for developing my skills. When I get critics from others, because I have to approve what I know I can do I feel sometimes a bit walked over. It's like when you say I can do this if I get the chance to practice to become better, then someone says you're hopeless then my self confidence get a bit down. But I know still what I am. I try to avoid people who put me down.

I lack that trait. I guess my self-confidence is not much. Sometimes I am affected with the opinions of other people in making some decisions. However, there are times that I make decisions without thinking of what others may say.

Thank you for encouraging us generously. If we live by others opinion then that show that we are control by them and live just to make them happy with the cost of our sense of self belonging. And in this kind of situation we are losers in life even thought we may have enough wealth. Therefore to truly live a free human being one must listen and follow our true instinct and go forward taking all the risk. After all one must not mind getting wet, if one wants to go fishing! Then only we become what we want to be and get the joy of life.

well yes, i think i do have self confidence.. sometimes it wavers.. but most of the time it only does because i am not prepared.. so i always make myself prepared and ready for any battle... be it at work, with friends, etc.. and it makes me more confident too when i am armed with a prayer!

That's my problem Im not so self-confident person. I always try to be one but still I don't have it. Because I always think that too much confident about the things that you do would lead to disappointment, disappointment when you thought you did/done the right thing but the result is not so good. Self-confident is good when your facing a public and do some speech of encouragement.
