VALENDA ROBINSON

Having confidence is like having the keys to the kingdom.

DAG ALBRIGHT

---

Confidence is a good name for what is intended by the term directness. It should not be confused, however, with self-confidence which may be a form of self-consciousness -- or of "cheek." Confidence is not a name for what one thinks or feels about his attitude it is not reflex. It denotes the straightforwardness with which one goes at what he has to do. It denotes not conscious trust in the efficacy of one's powers but unconscious faith in the possibilities of the situation. It signifies rising to the needs of the situation.

JOHN DEWEY

We all intuitively know that confidence is important. Most of us know that if you always struggle with confidence then something is wrong. Either you are suffering from low self-esteem or you are working or living in the wrong place. It just doesn't match. However, did you know that if you never struggle with confidence, you obviously are not stretching yourself far enough. You are not pressing to the edge of your abilities. In other words, the only way to never struggle with confidence is to play it safe. Play it known. Play it in a way that you achieve stability, but lose opportunity.

JOHANNA ACS

There are those who lack confidence in their own abilities, timid, fearing ones who always underrate their own efforts. Mankind is, however, not largely afflicted with this class.

HENRY F. KLETZING

Confidence is keeping your chin up; overconfidence is sticking your neck out.

EVAN ESAR

---

Self-confidence cannot be totally destroyed, for it is an inbuilt ingredient of our growth and evolution. What happens is that self-confidence is suppressed by the conditioning of the mind by external forces. A negative syndrome is formed. We can overcome this syndrome by taking a strong, positive view of life.

P. C. GANESAN

So my confidence doesn't come from not having any fear. It comes from trusting that in spite of my fear, I'm going to act; I'm going to take one step after another toward my goal.

BARBARA DE ANGELIS

So do not throw away your confidence; it will be richly rewarded.

BIBLE

---

Confidence is the feeling you have before you understand the situation.

EVAN ESAR

Self-confidence doesn't come from sitting on your hands and waiting for something to happen. It is about throwing everything you have against the wall and waiting (patiently) for something to stick.
