Lovely article. Thank you. Such lovely pearls of wisdom in there. I especially liked and resonate with the concept of trying something to fail. I won't harp on about this but, I've been reintroduced to the concept of Vulnerability. And your points illustrate that quite well. The essence, in my opinion, of confidence in anything, is being more and more vulnerable. That doesn't mean breaking down and crying every chance you get (although a good cry can do a person so much good) but, to expose yourself to the unknown. To challenge one's perceived shortcomings. To challenge limiting beliefs.
EVEN IF YOU FAIL. That is the key part! It's really the only way to validate whether those beliefs are true or not. Resilience and it's beautiful bi-product, confidence is developed like this. In anything one does.
Hey Leon! Thank you for reading my ramblings :D I appreciate it first and foremost. and YES! that is exactly true! Confidence is definitely a beautiful bi-product of resilience.
