•Confidence comes from achieving success. The thought of previous success gives you confidence, knowing you have done it and can do it again.

•Self-confidence and Self-Esteem are different. Work on improving both.

Self-confidence: Self-confidence is a belief in one's abilities, skills, and judgments. It relates to how a person perceives their competence and effectiveness in specific areas of life. Self-confidence is often situation-specific, meaning it can vary across domains, such as academics, sports, social interactions, or work. A person with high self-confidence may have a strong belief in their abilities and feel capable of handling challenges and achieving success in a particular area. For example, someone may feel confident in their public speaking skills but lack confidence in their artistic abilities. Past experiences, achievements, and feedback from others can influence self-confidence.

Self-esteem: On the other hand, self-esteem is a broader evaluation of an individual's overall worth and value. It is a global assessment of self-worth unrelated to specific skills or abilities. Self-esteem reflects how individuals perceive and feel about themselves on a deeper level. It involves accepting oneself, recognizing one's strengths and weaknesses, and having a sense of self-respect and self-acceptance. Factors such as childhood experiences, social relationships, cultural influences, and personal achievements influence self-esteem.
