The importance of confidence

     Whatever one does, one should do it with confidence. If one had no confidence, there is little possibility that one would ever achieve anything. This truth seems to be self-evident, especially for those who are faced with drawbacks or hardships. For those people, confidence keeps their spirits up whenever times or things are hard for them.
      However, in reality we see a lot of people who complain that their difficulties are too great to overcome. For some, this might be true, but for many others, this only shows that they lack confidence. There are two main reason why those people often feel frustrated even though they are capable of doing something. First, they do not have a correct estimate of themselves, and second, they overestimate the difficulties.
      It is possible to build up confidence in oneself by having the right attitude toward one's own abilities. We should never underestimate our abilities but should believe in the proverb: "Where there is a will, there is a way". Confidence is the premise for fulfilling a task successfully.
