Yesterday late in the evening, before falling asleep, I checked the volume of my phone and the time I set the alarm for I need to fall asleep with confidence in my heart that in the morning I will not oversleep and will be able to wake up the children for university on time and see them off.
An interesting topic "Confidence" sometimes it is difficult for me to understand this, because the matter of this concept is very unstable and it is easy to confuse confidence with what we call self-confidence, or confidence that we will not be created in any way.
Sometimes confidence appears when we develop some skills in ourselves for example a cook easily prepares complex dishes and is confident that he will cope with the task because he has already prepared it many times and knows every subtlety of this matter.
Or for example punctuality, to which we gradually accustom ourselves gives us some confidence that we will not look in the eyes of people with whom we have made an appointment as people who have no idea of the word "respect".
But even if I am punctual to the second, this does not give me complete confidence that the person who is supposed to come to a business meeting will also be punctual and I will not have to wait for him for a long time... a familiar situation?
It is good to be confident when our confidence does not bring us sadness and disappointment but this often happens for example your boss can say that he was confident in you but you did not justify his high trust and were unable to make a report on the work done on time, and your report depended on many other reports other employees who in turn, also, not on time submitted their reports to you lol.
To be honest there was a time when I didn’t really think about what I was confident in and what I wasn’t I just confidently walked forward and it seemed right to me but today I understand how careless and even stupid it was because it wasn’t confidence, but self-confidence born of pride.
About forty years ago, various kinds of calendars came into fashion, a calendar for a gardener a calendar for a mushroom picker and fisherman a calendar for a beekeeper where the best periods were indicated for example for collecting certain mushrooms or for planting garden plants.
At that time it seemed that having such a calendar you can be sure that now success will follow you on your heels but as practice shows these calendars have too many errors and it will be much more useful for us if we rely not on calendars but on the recommendations of our ancestors and personal observations.
Have you noticed that some animals and birds, being wild, allow us to come quite close to them which is not typical for them but for some reason these individuals are confident that we will not harm them.
I once heard a joke that said that a sign of mastery is consistency, in which confidence is born, but even if you know the schedule of public transport your confidence in its punctuality can become something unjustified and I have seen this many times standing at a bus stop, shifting from one foot to the other and angrily cursing the bus driver who did not go on the route.
When my friend taught me to drive a car I heard from him every day the phrase: If you are not confident in yourself do not get behind the wheel of a car!
And where did you get it, this confidence? lol.
Yes, it is difficult to find it after my first experience of driving a car with my father's permission ended in the repair shop of a car service where they brought his company car for repairs and the car of our neighbor in the country which I very confidently rammed into when I was pressing the pedals and my father was trying to turn the steering wheel lol.
Probably the topic of confidence can be continued it is so comprehensive that you can't say everything at once.
You know even the fact that I set the alarm clock yesterday was a manifestation of some self-confidence if at the same time you do not entrust your fate to God because only He knows whether I will wake up in the morning or I will not hear the alarm clock ringing.
