Yes, it is so important yet some people take it for granted. Some people think that they have confidence, but actually they dont. Why, because they win a lot, they never lose and that dont really require confidence. Seriously, if u keep winning because you are good at it or what not...then that is not confidence. Its because you are good at it. Confidence is when u fail and still be able to think at that moment that you will not let the words, the eyes, and the expression of others sway the deep believe you have within youself.
I was attack by that numerous time, why, i admit it, i lack self-confidence. I have been lacking that for a long time. I dunno, maybe too emotional le gua, lack sports? well i guess these are the determinants. Ok enough crap. So it struck me yet again. It happen when i could not answer the question, which i did was wrg. Then the lecturer was said i lack critical thinking, i could not twist my mind. Even thou it sounds small, it hit a nerve on me. I thought "what if she is right"...and i started to accept it. Then my whole day was just thinking about it...the scenario keep replaying itself.
Then i though...maybe i am dumb. It gets worst right. Ya i lack confidence. Anyway i have been through these situation tons of time....what make this different is that, its been a long time since this emotion came back. Anyway i though "i have been through this" "if you dont like it, change it" this has always been my life-motto and it never failed me. So yes i said ok since u said that i might or is true that i lack analytical skills, i will change it.
I have found a way to overcome confidence, you find a way to change. Change is inevitable...everybody needs change to improve. So yeah ok. The tricky part is to know whether that comment is true or not...that you need to answer it by yourself...do u think that this will make u truly happy. If that is the case then go ahead...if you do this because of somebody else....my advice "Dont change". Why, cuz its dumb, seriously, why change for someone else, at the same time causing a detriment to oneself.
Oh i just found out something at Forbes. Hate to burst your bubble. But actually there is not such thing as talent. No scientific evidence what so ever that can prove it. However, they know what caused this thing called "talent" which is over-rated. Some people may say it is an in-born talent but actually its the passion and determination that makes someone stood out from the rest.
Its not about doing the things you are good at...its doing the thing that you are NOT good at. Yes its true, but its not all about practice also. Its not practice make perfect. But its actually practicing with your brain. As quoted "you can practice for the whole day, but when u practice with a brain you take only few hours".
Many so called talented people....practice with such determination and passion that it looks extraordinary. They do something that no average people will do. They dont get into their comfort zone. They get out of it and explore ways to improve it...once they found how they can improve...hell they will practice. It is said that Tiger Woods practice till his hands bleed...and the next day still go on doing it. He even purposely find spots that is impossible to hit the ball and just work on that spot until he finds a way to get the ball out.
Its all in the heart and mind. Doing something that no other ppl will do. Forbes did say "if everybody can do it, then everybody will be very talented". "When you deem it impossible, then it will be impossible. "
Anyway blog some other day....its late i need to study my tutorial and calculation....haiz. Oh watch HEROES season 3...its awesome if you are in to the superhero thing.
