The Confident Entrepreneur

Do you know what self-confidence is? It is belief in you. It is belief that God made you smart, capable, and beautiful. It is belief that you may not be perfect, but you have positive attributes that you feel good about. It has a lot to do with your self-confidence. It defines how you feel about yourself. Are you self-reliant and independent? Are you self-motivated and self-starting? Do you always need someone looking over your shoulder? If you are one who does not need to be told what to, you get things done just because you know it needs to be done, then you are independent but not necessarily confident. An independent and self-reliant person will not need to be told to clean up their room or do your homework. An independent and self-reliant person will do them just because they need to be done.

Do you have self-respect and self-pride? These also play an important role in your self-esteem? Self-esteem is your own satisfaction with yourself. The fact that you know you are intelligent, beautiful, or talented plays a major role in your self-esteem. They way you feel about what you are able to do is also part of your self-esteem. Don’t confuse a person with self-confidence and high self-esteem with a person who is arrogant and full of pride. There is such a thing as too much. The better your self-esteem, the more self-confidence you will have. The more confidence you have the better you will be at work, in school, or in church, and in having good relationships with both friends and relatives.
