What helped you build confidence

[Mandarin Duck]

Money, power, respect...

 

[Heafcliffe]

Rejection and the ability to rebound from it.

 

[Pete Wrigley]

You have to go through tough times in order to
..well...toughen up.

 

[idonttouchgrass]

You need something to be confident about...whether that be something inherent or

constantly having success at something from practice (I.e. heat checks in the nba.

When someone gets hot, they start taking crazy shots that they wouldn’t normally shoot)

 

[The Intergalactic Koala]

• Working in a place where folks felt worse than me
• Realization that I love me after years of self doubt which I still have some tendencies
• Treating life like Tom Hanks in Big
• Understanding that trying is better than not trying (third bullet point)

Bottom line, confidence comes with conquering fear. When you realize that only you can provide your own strength, you will be able to feel like you are worth more than the naysayers.

And this is coming from somebody who had years of hell and torment to realize that part of it is fear of being myself.
