So, I have been thinking about what it means to be a confident person. I have had several conversations with my friend Ken about wishing I wish I could be more like him. He always rolls his eyes and tells me "you gotta just do it, you don't have anything to lose". There is so much truth in that, but yet, why is it so difficult to be confident?
Then I started thinking, and the more I thought about it, I couldn't help but ask myself "when does someone gain confidence?" It's not like people are equipped with the confidence gene or anything, or even take a confidence pill or anything that suddenly boosts their confidence. So, if confidence isn't something you can genetically enhance, or chemically endorse, it leads me to believe that the root of confidence is mental, and thus, something in the brain needs to change to "gain" confidence. Which also leads me to think, what part of the brain do I need to train in order to make it more confident about myself.
I think I am going to continue to think about this a little more and post tomorrow about what I think I need to do. Stay tuned.
