Confidence helps us find success in every arena of our lives. When we’re sure of our next steps and believe we will reach the goal, the inevitable complications and detours are easier to see beyond and we are able to move ahead with determination and focus. Personal confidence is important but may be fragile from time to time. If someone criticizes choices we’ve made it may chip away a bit of our certainty. If we have a few failures in a row, a little more may chip off and if we make a decision that brings us trouble and trials, we may lose even more. As we face difficulties going forward, bit by bit we may lose our confidence. If we believe we cannot succeed we will never reach the destinations we desire. There are a lot of things that can go wrong but our confidence is built within us and we are in complete control of how weak or strong it becomes. Failure will come at some time but failure is just an indicator that the path we chose did not take us to the destination we were seeking. It doesn’t mean we can’t choose again and it’s not the end of the road. Finding out what doesn’t work is as important and finding out what does. We need not internalize the disappointment indefinitely. We can reset, and begin again in a new direction. Success is always possible and we can bolster our confidence when needed and continue on. Our lives belong to us and every dream we desire can become reality. There isn’t anything we can’t accomplish. We can learn from mistakes and trust ourselves to move forward and reach any goal we desire.
When others disagree with a goal we’ve set and believe we are going down the wrong road, if they cannot dissuade us from our course, they may choose to sabotage us to divert us from the path. If they are determined they may stand in front of us to block us from proceeding. The opinions of others belong to them and have no bearing on our personal decisions. We don’t need the agreement of anyone to make personal choices. We know who we are and what we want and have everything we need to achieve it.
There will always be many reasons not to do something we dream about. Maybe it’ll take a lot of time, cost money, take us from our routines and require us to learn a new skill, or countless other details. If we focus on the difficulties of trying something new we will never leave the comfort of where we are. It’s impossible to make our dreams come true by doing the same things over and over again. We are capable of change and can accomplish anything. All possibilities are available and we can go anywhere and do anything we desire. The whole world is there for us and we can achieve every single dream.
Today if you’ve lost confidence because of something that’s happened and aren’t sure you have what it takes to succeed, step back and remember all the times you’ve overcome trials and hardship. You are strong and capable and nothing is too difficult for you. Be sure. Every dream is possible. Step forward and reach beyond your grasp. Everything you want is there for you and you will achieve it. Nothing is out of reach.
