in my opinion, confidence can be key to success. If you are confident in yourself and your situation, you will believe you can do it. If you believe you will succeed, you are more likely to actually succeed. I like how he said to write a letter to yourself saying what you have done good and why you should be confident and then when you are feeling down about yourself then read it.

Self confidence is the ability to belief in yourself to accomplish any task regardless the obstacle or challenge. It is important to notice that self confidence is a skill, not something that you are born with. Skills can be developed and there are developed through repetition, and more repetition! When you have done something so many times, you have developed the confidence that you can do it! Practice doesn't necessarily make perfect, perfect practice makes perfect. Persistence is important in developing your self confidence skill.

You have to have self- confidence in everything you do. If you don't have confidence in yourself how would you expect anyone else to believe in you. Confidence is important when building relationships as well.

I feel like we already watched a video about self confidence, but this video described it in a great way as well. Self confidence should definitely be considered a skill, and the belief in the belief in yourself. It can be a very difficult thing to get over, or incorporate in your daily activities, but it absolutely can be learned and developed. Just like anything else, practicing self confidence will make you better at it.

Self-confidence is the ability to believe in yourself to accomplish the task no matter the odds. Having self confidence will push you farther than you ever thought you would be able to go. Training people to believe in themselves is the best way to help someone in their personal life as well. It helps them grow and see what they are capable of. Self confidence can go a long way in any individual's life.

I enjoyed this video The Skill of Self Confidence by Dr. Ivan Joseph at TEDx. When someone lacks self confidence it is very noticeable. You can almost read it on their face when they are given a situation in which confidence would be key. Learning to be more self confident can you really far in life, both personally and career wise. If you learn to be confident in what you do and the outcomes of your actions it will be noticeable to others and will allow you more opportunities. The only thing is you need to draw the line between being confident and cocky. When an individual is cocky it is seen as arrogant and it can hurt your chances in life.

Self-confidence is the fundamental basis from which leadership grows. You can't effectively lead an organization if you do not believe in yourself and what you are doing. Self-confidence is one of those essential leadership skills that can't really be taught.I have heard my teachers also stress the importance of self-confidence. In this video, he says that the best way to gain confidence is repetition. When you are giving a presentation in front of your organization, it is important to practice. If you have practiced and repeated your speech over and over, you will be confident when you present it. At the end of the day, leadership is about having the confidence to make great decisions.

Self-confidence is an important trait to have in every aspect of life. This leads to higher esteem and belief in one's self to the point where they know they can accomplish these tasks and they set out to do it. I believe self-confidence is contagious, because being around other confident people can improve one's esteem and outlook on situations. Constant repetition is the key to building confidence on a certain task or field.

I know a lot of people have trouble with self confidence. I personally have had experiences where I am totally down on myself. Self confidence is something you have and sometimes you have to practice in order to achieve it. If you have no confidence in your golf game you should go to the range daily and build up some strong confidence and you will succeed. I think this is a great tip for the business world, confidence is important in a business. Without confidence and knowing you are able to do something you will fail as a company. He also mentions how your body can give off signs of nervousness and you need to calm your body down and calm your mind down. You cannot show signs of panic you have to be cool and collective. I enjoyed this video and would pass it along to others.

Repetition and persistence is one way to get self confidence. Religion and really knowing your material will help with nervousness because when you know the subject really well, nothing can stump you. Perseverance is also important because you have to have the desire and will to do well no matter how nervous the group you are speaking to makes you. It won't matter how many people are in the room because you will need to succeed. This is one way to gain self confidence.
