Self Confidence is a phrase you hear frequently, but do you actually know what it means? Do you think it’s a good thing? A bad thing? Do you think that you have self confidence? In this blog I will answer all of your questions!
What does it mean literally?
Straight out of the Webster Dictionary, “Confidence is the feeling or belief that one can rely on someone or something; firm trust.” To be self-confident is to have confidence in yourself. Self-confident people don’t doubt themselves. This is usually a positive word: you can be self-confident without being cocky, arrogant, or overconfident. If you know what you’re doing, you have every reason to be self-confident.
When is confidence a bad thing?
Self confidence becomes a bad thing when you begin to believe you are better than people because of the subject you are confident in. For example, one being a marathon runner and thinking that they are better than 5k runners because they know how to run a farther distance.
