You know you can do it, you believe in your abilities to do great but still, a negative thought lingering in your mind tells you, 'You can't do it!' What is the way to go?
I guess majority of us have at one time been advised to 'have confidence.' This confirms that the other person believes in what you are capable of, but still you need to make yourself ready to make it alone. Being ready to stand alone and do what to love the most.
Building confidence is just easy, however, one has to take the first step-
Being ready to ditch that fear of failure: This is something that drains hope in people's mind and allows a negative idea to dominate. In this case, self-confidence seems so elusive provided that it has no chance to touch the broken heart and heal the wounded positive mind.
Believe in oneself: Actually, the more you believe in yourself, the more you will realize how confident you are. Let nothing stand in your way as you pursue that much-needed self-confidence. If needed, avoid people who would discourage you and make friends with those who are already there. That way, it will be easy for you to focus on your goal.
Practice more: In life, there is nothing great that can happen without putting in more effort. Like a baby, you have to nurture its growth from childhood to adulthood. Provide it with essential needs and watch it closely at it grows into that level of adaptation and self-independent. This can only be done by close effort and learning from mistakes. Of course, that is what practice is all about!
Okay... anything to add? Feel free to drop a few.

Yes, I agree. Believe what you choose and do what you can do to gain more confidence.We should always challenge ourselves.

People may show us the way but it takes our own effort to make it a reality. self-confidence can be challenging for many of us, it might be chilling to make that first move, but the moment you step out it counts as the beginning of a journey whose end is forever.

Staying positive helps a lot and having good support around you. Never let the negative get to you
