I love the idea of hootlessness, because it's only when you drop your attachment to what you want that you're free to really be yourself and find real success. Good to have you here Marc. @Marc: I had a similar experience to yours, which is why I’m doing this confidence thing.

I was touched by your post "don't give a hoot if you want real inner confidence" (probably from long ago) because it touches the core of what I think is confidence: to develop and stick to your own line of thinking/action in which YOU feel happy. Too often we do or think what is expected of us out of fear what the other or "society" might think or might consider "successful" - this leads to a "fake" identity and is very hurtful in the end. I have experienced that to the full extent and I had to rebuild my confidence from scratch; luckily I have got some people who are helping me, but I always have to be alert to keep my thoughts positive and constructive. Confidence-building websites are a great aid to stay on track and not to give in to the forces of mainstream society. Keep up the good work. Regards, Marc The Hague, Netherlands Hi Steve,
