Where do you get your confidence?

[Brofato]

Not asking philosophically but on a personal level. Where exactly do you get your confidence from?

Does it stem from the validation given to you by others? Or was your confidence there in your genes and you just rolled with it?

Our savior, The Lord Jesus Christ, of course

Ever since I became Based my confidence has skyrocketed. I'm fukking hoes, getting money, and my swag is extraordinary now, wow! TYBG!

I'm not always confident... nobody should be confident all the time and those who try to be are foolish. Confidence can lead to failure and too much confidence is known as hubris. You should try to be confident in situations where rationally you have the upperhand... such as in a workplace setting in a meeting or something like that... if you have the answer to a complex problem, you should be rational enough to fix this problem without worrying about other peoples opinions or failure.

Basically what I'm trying to say is confidence is irrationality, and what you perceive to be "good" confidence is more of a persons realizations of his or hers inherent advantages or talents, and utilizing them at an appropriate time.

If you accomplish progressively more impressive things on a consistent basis, you'll have a healthy foundation upon which to grow your confidence. You've proven yourself to yourself, so you'll be able to strut it out wherever you go. You can try to tell yourself that you're the shyt because that's just the way that it is, but that really doesn't mean anything - it's just a sales line at that point. If you can back that sales pitch to yourself with something substantial, then you're golden.

ALL BLESSINGS ARE FROM THE ONE AND ONLY TRUE GOD, THE CREATOR, NOT JESUS.

You get it from how others react to you whether it's family,friends,peers,coaches,groupies,strangers the more praise you get over time will build up confidence + belief in self

Girls fawning over me helped. Being told how smart, talented and amazing I am helped too. When you're confident it doesn't matter what people say. You KNOW you're the shyt.

If I wasn't so full of Christ Love, I'd slap the shyt out of you.

 

[stealthbomber]

[DreadHead P]

Probably from the fact that I wouldn't give a fukk about any negative thoughts about me even if I had a spare fukk laying around to give

What about before women started the fawning? You said it helped. Did it give you a boost from what was already there or was it like 100% jump from no confidence to knowing you're the shyt?
