QUALITIES OF SELF-CONFIDENT PERSON
Confidence comes with knowledge and attitude. It is an age-long process of knowing yourself. If you are aware of your
tasks, there will be very less chances of failure and this force is big enough to motivate you.
There are lots of good qualities a self-confident person should possess to make his own identity in this world. Let us
now study those qualities of a self-confident person:
• Hardworking: A hard working person is always more confident. He is aware of the fact that if nothing else, his hard
work will be able to make him sail through the most difficult situation.
• Positive Attitude: A positive attitude causes a chain reaction of positive thoughts, events, and outcomes. It is a
catalyst and adds to the confidence of an individual.
• Self-Belief: When we feel confident in ourselves, we are able to trust in our abilities, qualities, and judgment. When
you believe in yourself, you are more confident to try new things.
• Committed: When you are committed to doing something, you accept no excuses, it's only results. Your confidence
level will automatically increase with your commitment.
• Focused: It is only when you begin to focus, you transform, change, and grow. If you stay focused, you will grow up
to be a more confident person.
• Knows Your Strengths and Weaknesses: Our strengths and weaknesses make our character. A confident person
always focuses on his strengths and not on weaknesses.

Factors that Decrease Self-Confidence
It is important to identify the factors that contribute to low self-confidence and take steps to improve self-esteem and
confidence:
• Negative Self-Talk: Constantly criticising oneself and having negative thoughts, can lead to low self-esteem and
confidence. Especially, when we think we cannot do a particular work.
• Past Experiences: When we keep thinking about our experience of pain, hurt, or trauma in the past. Instead of
learning from them, we feel bad about it.
• Lack of Skills or Knowledge: Feeling unprepared or lacking the necessary skills for a task or situation can decrease
confidence.
• Not Putting Enough Effort: When we expect to be successful at the first attempt itself and do not try again.
• Criticism: When we are surrounded by people who have a negative attitude and constant criticism in the form of
verbal or behavioural criticism from them, can harm self-esteem and confidence.
• Stress and Anxiety: Persistent stress or anxiety can undermine confidence and make it difficult to cope up with
challenges.
FACTORS THAT HELP IN BUILDING SELF-CONFIDENCE

There are various factors that influence our self-confidence. Let's take a closer look at some of these factors.
