How to gain confidence?

You don't actually need confidence. If you truly lacked confidence, you wouldn't be thinking this deeply, right? You wouldn't be questioning your direction and you wouldn't be searching for clarity. What you're experiencing right now is not low confidence. It is internal conflict. There's one part of you that wants to move forward and there's another part of you that wants to slow down. One part wants growth and the other part wants peace. And when these parts pull in different directions, That's when your confidence feels a little shaky. Not because you're weak, but because you're split. Now let me explain. Most people think confidence comes from certainty and conviction and all that, but it doesn't. Confidence comes from alignment. When your values, your goals, your energy, your actions, when all of these are pointing in the same direction, confidence feels more natural. Stop trying to become more confident. Instead, ask yourself, uh, where am I internally misaligned? Siddharth Rajsekar.
