The Power of Self Confidence

Hey, how's it going?

You know, I wanted to share with you a very important perspective today on self-confidence.

You see, but years back, just when I got started after my education, in in my first interview, I mean, I I was just blessed that I did not attend much interviews, you know, someone or the other would recommend me, you know, I think I was just lucky.

But in the first interview, you know, my I'd gone and you know, my qualifications were very good and You know, I I just went there, my brother recommended, and the interview just lasted for 5 minutes with the CEO, with the CFO.

And then later on he told me that he told my brother rather, that you know, he's good but confidence is lacking.

That's what he told about me.

And confidence lacking in the work or whatever.

I mean, and that guy was very good, the CFO.

You know, he had great experience and all, and I didn't pay much attention at that time, but later on, when I look back, you know, after 10-15 years, I say, okay, all the success that I had were in areas where my confidence was sky high.

And wherever I was like, you know, the confidence, self-confidence was low, you know, no matter how much I know, you know, the success was not there.

I mean, the reason why this is important is because, you know, knowledge is something which is important, and, you know, we we are providing that, you know, I'm doing my best, you know, you're doing your best.

However, knowledge cannot get you to that goal.

What you need is self-confidence, and that's an area which people most often overlook.

That means your approach and attitude.

Let's say you're sitting for meditation, you'll say, okay, you know, if I do a good job, it's okay.

If I don't also, it's okay.

Well, that attitude should not be there.

You should approach the meditation or spirituality or anything that you're doing in this domain with tremendous confidence that it will achieve a certain result.

Now, it might not, that's a different thing, but if it does not, it will lead you to something else.

But you should always approach with this attitude that it will certainly lead you to something very, very important.

But if you just approach saying okay, it's okay, you know, if it happens, if it doesn't happen.

That sort of casual attitude will not help you win.

This is very, very important.

Now, and I experienced that, you know, a couple of years back, you know, I had so much knowledge of internet, I could do so many things.

However, my attitude was casual.

I'd say, all right, if I do this, it will- and a year passed and nothing happened.

And and so then I I realized that, you know, that's not the same approach I do for my prayer, meditation, and in building all your courses or something.

And so I said, you know, this it's it's very clear that knowledge is something which is extremely important, but when you try to execute the knowledge, when you execute the knowledge, you got to know that self-confidence is very high.

Your self-confidence is very high.

Your attitude should be very good.

That means you might have this much knowledge, but if your attitude towards executing that knowledge is very good, you'll get great results.

Don't go into that attitude saying, "Okay, if it works, it's fine.

If it doesn't work—" I mean, you might have challenges, but that's fine.

But you should never go with that attitude.

Very important.

And self-confidence is something which gets better every time that we do it.

So, you know, don't try to get into the perfection mode.

Just know that knowledge- for the knowledge to be executed, Self-confidence should be high.

You see, most of the times, if you look back on the areas where you have won, you will notice that your self-confidence was high.

You see, only when your self-confidence is high, meaning that, okay, you know, I think I can do it.

And and we all know there are challenges, right?

There are thousand challenges.

Like when I sit for prayer meditation, I know inside I can see God.

Now, I have not seen God like Ramakrishna has seen Goddess Kali.

But I have had tremendous, you know, experiences and tremendous insights into this whole domain.

And whenever I go, I go with that attitude, and that's what has made me, you know, made me so much powerful there.

I mean, I cannot fail there.

I mean, it's- I've done that 15 years straight.

And same thing people do with work.

So, I want you to know that have that same attitude.

In work, in meditation, in relationship or whatever, to the extent possible, that go with tremendous self-confidence, and that will ensure that whatever knowledge you take will get, you know, tremendous mileage.

Otherwise, you know, it would be just saying, okay, if it works, it doesn't work, you know, never go with that attitude.

It doesn't matter if it work does not work, it might lead you to something important.

That should be the attitude.

So just want to let you know that self-confidence, build your self-confidence a little, little, little every day, whether you do 2 minutes or 5 minutes or whatever amount you allocate, whether you're reading a PDF, listening to an audio, just for that 5 minutes, remove all distraction, put your heart and soul and know that it can get you to a certain distance.

And when you do that, when that attitude creeps into your meditation, into your work, into your relationships, you would have known that you are on the right path and you're headed towards glory.

Thank you and God bless.
