Not being confident can lead to the downfall of one’s entire life. When people see that you are not the most confident person they try to take advantage of you. Most famous people and leaders around the world have larger than life personalities and are very confident. You will very very rarely see famous people and leaders that are not confident. In order to gain a high and respectable stature, in whatever society you may be in, you need to learn confidence and show that you have it in a public setting. This can be anything as simple as volunteering to speak first or speaking with a proper clear and proper volume.
It is important to be in control of your own self-confidence. Being in control ensures that you will not require affirmation from others, allowing you to do more with your life.
