About This Quote
The purpose of confidence is to give us the ability to be at our best. When we are confident, we can make wise decisions, make others feel good about themselves, and be happier in life. A confident person has the ability to see their shortcomings and learn from them. They make mistakes, but they don’t let those mistakes define them.
Instead, they use those mistakes as a learning tool for the future. Confident people are not afraid to go after what they want in their lives. Instead of worrying about what others think, they do what is best for them and are happy with that decision.
They are less concerned with how they look on the outside and more concerned with how they look on the inside.
