Introduction |
|---|
How much do you trust your abilities and how reliable your abilities towards your job, education, business etc? Nice topic, I know you're willing to read about the level of confidence I have, isn't it? Then let's keep going.
Do you believe in self-confidence or not? Describe self-confidence in your own words. |
|---|
Self-confidence is believing in one's abilities and capability. I am one of those who believe so much in myself, no matter how little I know. I may not be the best, but I always try to be better in all that I do. That gives me confidence that I can excel in my doings despite the obstacles. I don't need anyone's validation, I know my worth and abilities.
For example, I am a teacher. The day I went for my current job interview, I didn't expect that I'd be asked to teach by my interviewer based on my subject choice. I didn't have a specific topic in my mind, so I went for the simplest topic. With the way I began my introduction, they already knew I was well vested in the subject. I was given another topic by the interviewer. I wasn't afraid. Although it was a long time I had taught, I wasn't moved. I took it one step at a time, and before I got to explain the different steps, I was given applause and asked to step forward to negotiate my salary.
What is the difference between self-confidence and overconfidence and how should both be kept under control? |
|---|
The difference between confidence and overconfidence is that confidence is believing that you're good, not because you meant to compete with anyone. It is your belief in your abilities. While overconfidence is borne out of over placement or pride. When a person thinks he's better than anyone, that he's at the top, while others are regarded as less. Someone who is overconfident is usually overwhelmed by his ability.
While it is good to have self-confidence, it is good if you're not overdependent on your abilities so that you feel others can't be a match with you. You may fail in the course of that over-dependence.
Is there any task which was not possible for you but you completed it through self-confidence? |
|---|
Yes, I have mentioned above about my teaching interview where I almost lost out, but because of the confidence in my abilities, I was able to deliver.
Self-confidence gives boldness, it makes you feel relaxed. Overconfidence can ruin. Would you rather miss out than manage your confidence with bravery?

Hola @eveetim, un placer saludarte
Totalmente de acuerdo contigo amiga, confiar en nosotros mismos es conocer nuestras capacidades, habilidades, destrezas, creer en nosotros mismos, en lo que somos capaces de hacer, saber que todo lo que nos propongamos eso lo vamos a poder lograr con esfuerzo y determinación.
Que bueno amiga, que tengas tanta confianza en ti misma, eso es muy importante, porque en la medida que tu confías en ti, así mismo los demás lo harán, la primera persona que tiene que confiar en ti, eres tu misma.
Te deseo mucho éxito. Un abrazo 🤗
