Building Confidence through Gradual Steps

Confidence is not a fixed trait but can be built through gradual steps. It is essential to understand that everyone has certain areas where they lack confidence. This can stem from past experiences or lack of exposure. The key to building confidence is through repetition and starting with tasks that one has the courage to do. By gradually increasing the level of challenge, such as initiating a conversation or doing something chivalrous, individuals can overcome their fears and enhance their confidence. It is common for people to project a different persona than their true self, focusing more on who they need to be rather than who they are. This approach can help individuals navigate their fears and work towards building their confidence.
