SELF CONFIDENCE - I

There was a recent news item stating that one lady named Rosaria of Mexico, had took just 1.59 minutes to run a 200 meter race. You may ask, what is special in it ? The special factor in this news item is the age of the runner. She is just 95 years old ( or 95 years young ? ). How it is possible to do such an exemplary achievement at this age ? Is it the belief system that “I can achieve”.?

Many a time, we are asking ourselves, ‘whether this is possible for me ? ‘ ‘Can I achieve this ?’, Can I complete this job ?’. But if you analyse the life histories of achievers, you will come to a conclusion that all these people had a strong self confidence.

We should not stop with just questioning this to ourselves. The next stage is action plan. The background support for the action is our self confidence..

Can you imagine the state of mind of the astronauts when they landed first time in Moon in 1969?. It was the confident mood that I CAN DO IT mentality. Because of that only, it was possible for them. Not only that, whenever you say ‘I CAN DO IT’. ‘IT IS POSSIBLE FOR ME’ your body system supports you to perform the job. If you say, IT IS NOT POSSIBLE FOR ME or I CAN’T DO IT, your entire system makes you sick so that you will not do that job.

We all may be having dreams in our life. (If you don’t have any dream, then have it first). If you don’t have any confidence over your dreams, then it will remain as dreams forever. To give an action plan to your dreams, you need confidence. If you don’t have that, then you will not do even a bit of action to achieve your dreams.

In our life, we have seen many people who has self confidence becoming achievers...Apart from this, those who have self confidence, find it easy to come out of stress, at any point of time. They rarely undergo stressful conditions. Those who has little self confidence, suffer most at that time.

If your are lacking in self confidence you will find all the things difficult. When you are confident enough, you will find all the things damn easy. When you are allotted a particular job, if you lack in self confidence, you will be fearing how you are going to complete this particular job. Your energies will be wasted on such fears and doubts. If you are really confident enough, you can concentrate hundred per cent in that particular job and succeed.

You should have solid self confidence and reliable, to make most things easy and fun. Self confidence will allow you to achieve your goals in your life. You will find it difficult to fulfill
our potential areas, if you are not confident enough about yourselves. You are found more relaxed with your old friends, relatives. You enjoy the time. But when you asked to address a new gathering, you feel shivering. You could really feel ‘I can’t do this, should I take it or leave it’.

Could you go into any situation with curiosity and a sense of fun, with the thought ‘Whatever happens here, I’ll be fine ?’. Guess, how would things be in that situation ?

This is not only possible, it is pretty easy too. But it will take a little work from you. Just keep the benefits in mind.

Whatever be the situation, just easily, calmly confident about who you are and what you can do. You have to motivate yourself. Think a little about it now. If you are confident, you will deal with such old situations, which you find difficult. You will handle that person that currently causes you problems in a casual manner without much difficulty.

You have the ability to empower you with confidence. You can bring the confidence into yourselves. Just allow yourself to achieve everything you are capable of. You are capable of solving any situation, finding solution for any difficult problems.

With efforts alone, you cannot build up self confidence. With more practice and making it a habit, you can do it. Instead of anticipating what may happen, how to come across, learn to enjoy the situation in a relaxed manner.

We will learn some ways to boost self confidence in the next issue.

Achievement begins with self confidence
Happiness follows
