Confidence¹³
Confident people tend to work more happily and are unafraid to go
for promotion or take new challenges. First, you need to know yourself. To get
know yourself answer these questions:
• When do you feel confident and powerful?
• When do you feel insecure, not good enough, or trapped?
• What is preventing you from feeling confident, secure or powerful?
• Where do you feel you are not good enough?
• Who do you know in your field that is confident? What can you
learn from him/her?
• What actions do you need to take to stop feeling 'not good
enough'?
• What makes you feel happy and fulfilled?
• What is your dream? What goals do you have?
Two main things contribute to self-confidence: self-efficacy and self-
esteem. We gain a sense of self-efficacy when we see ourselves mastering skills
PART 1 and achieving goals that matter in those skill areas. This is the confidence that if
we learn and work hard in an area, we will succeed.
