Many people yearn to be more self-confident. Y et they have no idea how to achieve that objective. They look at others who have the gift and say, “Hey that‟s what I want. I hate feeling unsure of myself. I wish I could stop obsessing about what others think of me and quit worrying about disappointing other people. I want to stop anguishing over my decisions and torturing myself about my mistakes. I think it would be so great to feel self-assured, hold my head up high and stand tall. I‟ve never been self-conf ident. I wish there were a way I could be.”There is a way. Y ou don‟t have to be born with self-confidence. Self-confidence can grow and flourish and ripen and blossom until you actually come to feel as though there is a different person inside of you. Here are some insights that might facilitate the quest.Learn what a self-confident person is really like. They are not cocky, know-it-all people who don‟t care what anybody else thinks. They have their doubts. And make mistakes. And are far from perfect. However, they are willing to acknowledge their inadequacies without dwelling on them. They do this by maintaining a sense of humor, putting problems in perspective, and focusing mainly on what they‟ve done right, not wrong.Though self-confident people d o believe in themselves, they don‟t try to suffocate others with their ideas or beliefs. They are confident in what they know not only because they read, learn and think but also because they respect their instinct, intuition and the unique body of knowledge that they‟ve developed by living life. They realize that one doesn't have to be labeled an “expert” to believe in one's own truths.Self-confident people don‟t undermine their own worth by comparing themselves with others, only to conclude that they ar en‟t “good enough”. They appreciate their strengths and accomplishments and can acknowledge, without embarrassment, their weaknesses. They don‟t live in the “victim” position. Even if something really bad has occurred, they turn it into a challenge, remembering to be grateful for the little things in life.Self-confident people let the world know who they are. If they want something badly enough, they know they have every right to “go for it.” Y et, they also know that the path will rarely be easy. Mistakes, blunders and failures are part of the learning process. They seek to learn from their mistakes and do not waste time torturing themselves over what “could have been”.Self-confident people are not obstinate people. If they have an idea about something and it differs from the way another person is thinking about it, they will usually try to look at it from that person‟s point of view, see why it makes sense to them. Y et, a confident person‟s sense of self is grounded. It does not blow in the wind. Their ideas do not fluctuate based on what others deem are important.I hope these insights are helpful to you. If so, perhaps one day you will be able to say what the actress Phyllis Rashid once said, simply but eloquently, ” I am just myself and who I am is a lot.”(2) The Key of Success——Self-confidence Hello, everyone! My name is .I come from . I’m in Grade. I am a self-confident girl. And I believe the power of self-confidence is very strong. Self-confidence is to be sure of oneself and one’s abili ties. It is extremely important for all to be self-confident as it isthe indispensable condition to their success. Now, let me tell you a story about a player. When he was a boy, a terrible fair devastate the lower half of his body. Since he was doomed to be a lifetime cripple with no use at all of his lower limbs. But the boy was confident to himself, so he made up his mind. He would not be a cripple. His mother would massage his little legs, but there was no feeling, no control, nothing. Yet his self-confidence was as strong as ever. One sunny day his mother wheeled him out into the yard to get some fresh air. This day instead of sitting there, he threw himself from the chair. He pulled himself across the grass. He worked his way to the white picket. With great confidence, he raised himself on the fence. Then, stake by stake, he began to dragging himself along the fence! Since that, he started to do this every day until he wore a smooth path all around the yard beside the fence. When he did that, he always said to himself :＂I believe myself, I can walk!＂Finally through his daily exercise and strong self-confidence, he was able to stand up! Then to walk haltingly, then to walk by himself——and then——to run! He began to run to school. Later in college he made the track team. Still later, in Berlin 1936 Olympic Games, this young man got a silver medal of the running race! Now, you know, everyone needs self-confidence which can help them overcome the difficulty. So we can say self-confidence is the key of success. Come on, let’s be self-confident! That’s all, thank you!We Are the World, We Are the Futuresomeone said “we are reading the first verse of the first chapter of a book, whose pages are infinite”. I don‟t know who wrote these words, but I‟ve always liked them as a remind er that the future can be anything we want it to be. We are all in the position of the farmers. If we plant a good seed, we reap a good harvest. If we plant nothing at all, we harvest nothing at all.We are young. “How to spend the youth?” It is a meaningf ul question. To answer it, first I have to ask “what do you understand by the word youth?” Y outh is not a time of life; it‟s a state of mind. It‟s not a matter of rosy cheeks, red lips or supple knees. It‟s the matter of the will. It‟s the freshen Of the deep spring of life.A poet said “To see a world in a grain of sand, and a heaven in a wild flower, hold infinity in the palm of your hand, and eternity in an hour. Several days ago, I had a chance to listen to a lecture. I learnt a lot there. I‟d like to share it with all of you. Let‟s show our right palms. We can see three lines that show how our love. Career and life is. I have a short line of life.What about yours? I wondered whether we could see our future in this way. Well, let‟s make a fist. Where is our future?Where is our love, career, and life? Tell me.Y eah, it is in our hands. It is held in ourselves.We all want the future to be better than the past. But the future can go better itself. Don‟t cry because it is over, smile because it happened. F rom the past, we‟ve learnt that the life is tough, but we are tougher. We‟ve learnt that we can‟t choose how we feel, but we can choose what about it.Failure doesn‟t mean you don‟t have it, it does mean you should do it in a different way. Failure doesn‟t mean you should give up, it does mean you must try harder.As what I said at the beginning, “we are reading the first verse of the first chapter of a book, whose pages are infinite”. The past has gone. Nothing we do will change it. But the future is in front of us. Believe that what we give to the world, the world will give to us. And from today on, let‟s be the owners of ourselves, and speak out “We are the world, we are the future.”世界是我们的，未来是我们的一些人说“我们正在读一本无穷的书中的第一章的第一节。
