Confidence

We have heard in our downfalls to have confidence in yourself. In relationship (friendship, family, couple, etc.) we have confidence in each other. But what is confidence? How does it help us? What is its importance in our life? Why we should have it to be unstoppable? In this post, I am going to discuss about confidence ( from my point of view).

Confidence is defined as the ability to believe and have faith in something. It can be a person, a thing or an event. It can be in either living or non-living being. It is the strength of a person, which motivate and inspire him/her to see a broad picture of a situation of circumstances. It can broadly divided into two parts: Self- confidence and Confidence in others. Their is also third type of confidence, which is harmful for ys: Over- confidence, about which I will discuss in sort in last 
paragraph of this post.

Let's start from ourself, the Self-confidence. It is nothing but the quality of a person having confidence in himself /herself. Self confidence is defined as ability of the person to keep him/her full of positivity when he/she is either going through ups or downs in life. Whenever we stuck into some situation & there is no solution seems to be possible, if we have self confidence in our self then we inspire us from inside to find or create the solution in any adverse case. Self confidence is a small step of the big ladder which we called success, or I can say successful life. When we read biography or listen to the outstanding person's in our society, they mostly talk about self confidence. Self confidence make ys to take meaningful risks in life.

Confidence in others come into picture when we see human being as a social animal. Humans like to be in society, interact with each other and have a good social life (differ person to person). The moment we take birth, confidence come into effect. At first we have confidence in parents, then in our siblingsc(some may have different view on it). At every point of life confidence help us to build good social relations let it be with parents, siblings, spouses, friends, etc. Confidence is the building block of every thing ( knowingly-unknowingly). This is our confidence in our political leaders which led us to elect them, which led to country's development, good team work, achieving the common goals. All the leaders have confidence in either their team mates or competitors which motivate & inspire them to improve their skills continously and be a role model.

Now lets take an example, the newly recruited project manager is need to lead the team of 10 members in order to complete a project. Now this project manager must have self confidence in himself which drive him to find solutions & bring the team together in order to achieve a common goal of project completion. After that comes confidence in his team mates and their confidence among themselves. Until unless he don't have confidence on the abilities of his team members, he will hesitate to assign work to them & will be worried about it. But if he has confidence in them, he will be stress free and also ask solutions from them. He will be a good leader, not a boss everytime.

There is a thin line between confidence and over-confidence or self-confidence and over-confidence. While self-confidence (confidence) results into extra ordinary achievements, on the other hand over-confidence could pave the path to destructions. Over confidence is always harmful for the personality & bring other negative qualities with it. It's always recommended to be aware of thin line separating confidence & over-confidence.
