Confidence is a tricky thing, isn’t it? Have too much of the wrong kind and it’ll blind you with arrogance. Have too little of the right kind and it’ll freeze you in uncertainty and fear.
If you really think about it confidence is how the world was built, designed, torn down, rebuilt, reimagined and reimagined again. How much confidence must it take to head off to unknown lands in hope of a better life? Is it more or less confidence than it takes to open a conversation with an attractive someone whom may one day start a life with you? More or less than the confidence to admit that dream first to yourself and then to the world?
Or the confidence to look in the mirror and like who you see looking back? Ahhh that’s the one I think. Is that the same confidence necessary to demand the person in the mirror grow and be better while promising you’re going to be right there with them? This is the confidence that could re-write your entire life’s story.
Confidence is a tricky thing. When you tag “self” to it it may be the most important thing you have or don’t have.
Anyway thanks for reading my thoughts.
