How many of us are not confident about how we handle lifes situations? Truth is you may be confident in some area of your life but not others.
I grew up a very shy person and was not comfortable going out of my comfort zone. I always stayed in the background and tried to make myself less noticeable. It was especially painful in-group activities that involved boys. But as luck would have it, it was at a school dance that I had a breakthrough.
I was sitting in the background hoping a boy would ask me to dance but also terrified that I would get asked. It finally happened. There was a boy approaching me and I was shaking. But I noticed something odd, that he was shaking too. He stuttered when he asked me and it suddenly occurred to me, he was as scared as I was. It was a huge revelation to me. That moment changed me and in later dances I became the one who would ask the boys to dance and I felt very confident. I stepped out of my comfort zone and it became easy. This was a major step for a young girl.
This is true in all areas of your life. Confront what you dont want to, get it done and you realize its not so bad.
Oddly enough it was my daughter...
