Personal Power - Confidence is earned

You can’t fake your way to confidence.

It’s not something you can manifest by good thoughts alone.

Confidence is a byproduct of taking action that produces results which helps build confidence.

The more you achieve, the more you succeed, the more your confidence grows.

In a way, confidence is very much like a bucket.

It can be filled, but it can also be depleted.
