Confidence is something that has a significant impact on how we interact with the world.
Perhaps there are some aspects of your life where your feel like you very confident and others you notice you really lack confidence? It is quite normal to feel that polarity.
Your confidence might be challenged when you are are on your growth edge, that place where you are not good or competent at something but you know it is required for you to grow (i.e. putting yourself out there or public speaking).
Perhaps you have a harsh inner (or outer) critic that has been beating you down for some time and it has left you questioning your abilities and worth?
Or have you been moulding, pleasing or adapting yourself to meet others expectations and along the way you have lost your true self?
One thing I have come to realise is confidence is not static or black and white. Our confidence is something that goes up and down based on where we are on our journey, who we are with and how competent we feel about what we are doing.
