Why Seeking Comfort Won’t Build Confidence—And What Will!

Hey guys,

What if I told you, in order to feel more confident, you need to make things a bit harder for yourself.

I understand this feels like a slap in the face when you're already going through so much.

Confidence comes from taking on challenges and dealing with tough times, not just from winning or being successful.

Many people who lack confidence want things to be easy and smooth sailing.

But if we always look for the easy way out, how can we adapt, overcome, and grow stronger?

And discover what we’re truly capable of?

When we don't know what we're capable of, we're full of self-doubt and every little problem throws us off.

Everyone faces challenges, and we can’t avoid that.

It's not a matter of what you might face, it's a matter of when.

If you only look for comfort, you’ll struggle when things get tough.

And when you inevitably face challenges, you won't have the ability to handle them.

Iron sharpens iron.

True confidence comes from having undeniable proof that you really are who you say you are.

And that comes only from enduring hardships and growing from it.

To quote a timeless wisdom from Friedrich Nietzsche:

"I know of no better life purpose than to perish in attempting the great and impossible. The fact that something seems impossible shouldn't be a reason to not pursue it. That's exactly what makes it worth pursuing, where would the courage and greatness be if success was certain and there were no risks. The only true failure is shrinking from life's challenges."

We are rooting for you. You've got this.
