Self-confidence is not a gift reserved for a few. It is something we build day by day, shaped by our experiences and the way we see ourselves. Yet, it’s easy to fall into certain traps that quietly erode confidence. Recognizing these mistakes is the first step toward avoiding them and nurturing a strong sense of self.

Self-confidence is an inner strength that helps us move forward despite doubts and challenges. It is not just about “believing in yourself” in a general sense, but about cultivating a feeling of competence in specific situations. Confidence acts like a motor: it pushes us to try, to persevere, and to step outside our comfort zone.
