How do you know when you’ve become confident enough to do the things you really want to do?
What will it take for you to stop saying “I can’t” and start saying “Sure I can“?
It’s entirely possible that you’ve given no thought at all to this question, which is exactly why I’m asking it.
Every person I talk with has their own way of thinking and feeling about self-confidence and I couldn’t begin to count the number of different answers to this question I’ve heard.
I have my own answer that’s based on what I’ve observed from my clients and my own experience, but I wanna hear your thoughts first.
How will you know when you’re truly confident? What will it take?

interesting question. For me it means that I need to find out what is *really* stopping me from not doing what I want to do. Often it is because I am scared of something. So finding out what the fear is and finding a way to solve that fear is waht it is going to take.

@Jolanda: So confidence for you is what happens when there’s an absence of fear? Or is it more the point when you conquer a fear?
You make a great point about finding what’s really holding you back - often it’s not what you think it is.
