Redefining Confidence through Certainty
Confidence is not just about being bold or outgoing but stems from a feeling of certainty. This certainty comes from competence and previous experience. By shifting the focus of what we need to be certain about, like demonstrating care rather than seeking universal approval, we can build a stronger and lasting confidence. Seeking assurance in a relationship can lead to constant doubts, whereas finding certainty in one's ability to handle difficult situations fosters true confidence.
The Power of Shifting Focus for Confidence
Redirecting the source of certainty towards personal resilience rather than expecting external guarantees boosts self-assurance. Confidence doesn't require a specific personality type and can coexist with nervousness. By reframing what we seek certainty in, such as displaying care rather than seeking constant approval, we can cultivate a more stable and authentic confidence.
