Lack of confidence or Low-confidence

When one lacks confidence or has no confidence, one will be too daunted to face any situation since he or she believes that they have little ability to solve and overcome the problem. Lack of confidence or low-confidence stems from how we have been brought up, and how we have been taught to react to certain situations. Our environmental and societal surroundings can inhibit us making our confidence grow less. That is how we no longer believe in ourselves, and instead, we think too much of what others will think of us. This prevents us from achieving things that we want or need. You may ask if it can ever be remedied. The answer is YES. Good news is there are many ways to boost or regain our lost confidence. There are a lot of courses even online on how to build up your confidence and even to reach self-mastery.

 

Confidence

Confidence simply means having faith in yourself, feeling sure of yourself and your abilities. Having confidence means you are capable of facing your everyday challenges in a realistic and secure way. It is one of the basic requirements everyone, old and young alike, should have to overcome obstacles in life and then succeed. Is it something innate or is it something that we can nurture? It may not be too easy to validate, but it is truly believed that confidence can be nurtured. One’s upbringing and surroundings are integral parts of developing one’s confidence. In other words, it is the outcome of how we have been brought up, and how we have learned to react to certain situations. What we learn through our experiences affects what we believe about ourselves and other people. Accordingly, with no confidence, what would the result be? With low confidence or no confidence, people are likely to avoid opportunities since they do not believe in their capabilities.

Overconfidence

It is unquestionable that having confidence is one of the desirable attributes of a human being. But the danger is when it becomes overconfidence, you start believing in yourself that you can do anything even though you do not have the necessary skills, abilities and knowledge to perform it well. That is how people with overconfidence face failure. When you become overly confident, you tend to act arrogantly towards others while you do not really have what it takes. Thereby, it is very much likely that one can lose the trust of people who depend on you. Being overly confident, one may take things for granted, and he or she is likely to make bad decisions which can ultimately affect their studies, career, business and even life in worst-case scenarios.

Let me sum up here with my own quote.

 

Lack of confidence can be a barrier to your dreams. Hence, ‘confidence’ is a requirement to reach your goal. However, overconfidence can lead you to pitfalls.
