Can you really develop self confidence or is there a “natural” level for each individual? Personally I think it can be developed, enhanced and improved. To a certain extent, it’s quite natural that our confidence levels will be determined by our experiences - but that doesn’t mean that we are powerless to change. After all, it’s not so much what happens in our lives but rather how we view these events. If you’re the sort of person who views each setback as a calamity or disaster then you could probably benefit quite a lot from looking on minor, and even major, reversals as learning opportunities. Tell yourself “I won’t make that mistake again” - but don’t let anything stop you trying new experiences and setting new goals.
