What You Get With Confidence
One of the most common yet indispensably pieces of advice you can get in your life is, “Have
confidence!” This advice is a great one, but when not tried, becomes senseless. Trust me, this is really
essential. Look at all the confident people. Look at the upsides they have. Look at how they’re having a
good time with what they do. You know that their confidence is something worth mimicking, right?
Confidence Defined
According to the dictionary, confidence is a firm trust; belief in one’s own abilities; boldness. Basically,
confidence means that you know the things you excel and the value you bring. It brings assertion of your
self-worth.
Confidence is not like arrogance where in you believe that you are superior in a field even though you
are not. True, genuine confidence doesn’t blind you from reality. Confidence is also contrary to low self-
esteem where in you demote yourself or you think that you are less in value that you really are.
Helpful confidence is the one that lies in a point between arrogance and low self-esteem. The closer you
are to the middle, then it’s the more you have confidence that’s healthy.
Being confident has a lot of perks. It boosts both of your personality and performance. It helps you
physically, socially, and psychologically. Know what you get with confidence here:
1. A Proper Posture
Heads up, straight back, etc. Confidence gives you a proper posture. When you’re low in self-esteem,
you would mostly be slouching, looking on the floor, and more which is a result of being shy. Confidence
allows you to be comfortable all the time, thus giving you a proper posture.
Being confident allows you to be a good leader, the one that people want to work with and trust.
Leadership is never just about knowledge and skills. Confidence plays a big role in it. With confidence,
you are more motivated, can take risks, you can lead with authority, find it less difficult to make
decisions, get people to communicate, and accept feedback especially the constructive ones.
Confidence takes away your worrying issues. When you are confident, you no longer worry about if you
did something wrong or right, thus taking away a lot of stress from yourself.
This is another good thing with confidence, it won’t let you crumble. So what if you face rejection, falls,
and setbacks in life? You know things like those won’t stop you from achieving what you want. You’d
just pick yourself up, and return back to the field.
Confidence lets you take risks instead of passing on challenges. A more adventurous, exciting life is
within you with confidence.
Being confident has a lot of perks, right? So worry not, and channel the confidence in you! With your
newfound confidence, I’d like to offer a gift you can claim at www.lucimcmonagle.com
