TOPIC: CONFIDENCE

INTRODUCTION:

What is confidence?

Confidence can be described as, "self-assurance", or "a feeling of certainty, firm trust or belief, faith, or boldness.

REASONS TO BE CONFIDENT:

i. It's the bedrock of every success: Failure or success depends on your thoughts and beliefs about what you want to do. If your mentality is negative, then your confidence is liable to be killed, hence failure is imminent.

ii. It serves as a catalyst to your potentials: Even if you possess the capability to carry out a particular task successfully, once fear or inferiority complex sets in, you may not be able to make headway.

iii. Gallant approach to every adventure: Bravery approach is very crucial in every task, and highly required if triumph must happen.

iv. It helps in regaining of emotional stability: When one is confident adventurously, he or she will be able to overcome fear of the past failures in no long time. This is another great clue to achieving breakthrough in life.

v. Confidence adds value to a man: In whatever one does in life, confidence is very key because it's the only thing that get people convinced that you really know what you are doing or what you are about to do.

vi. It retains people's trust in you: It's only when you trust your own capability that people can trust you, and there is no way you can trust yourself without being confident in your own abilities.

SCRIPTURAL POINTER:

Psalm 27:3

Though an army besiege me, my heart will not fear; though war break out against me, even then I will be confident.

This Bible verse is an indication that with confidence in GOD, we can overcome any challenges in life.

CONCLUSION:

Confidence is part of our emotions that dictate how we handle tasks or adventures. It's a factor we must treat as a culture and practice regularly as it's a huge catalyst that hastens our successes in life.
