SELF CONFIDENCE: FIRST STEP TO SUCCESS and the power of the subconscious mind

“Self-confidence is the first requisite to great undertakings” — Samuel Johnson

This world, in which we live, is a very competitive one. It is popularly described as a rat race, full of competent people and the fittest of them survives. Success is not a cake walk. One has to face lots of hardships and obstacles to taste success. The most important aspect of achieving success is self-confidence. However, people are ambitious but not confident enough to go for it. In fact, most of them don’t know how to go about it or are terrified to take risks in their lives. Self-confidence is not something which can be achieved in a day or two. Let us understand that we are not born with it. It’s the situation we face, motivation from others and self-motivation that make us truly confident. Hence, those of us, who feel that we lack confidence, have no reason to be upset. There are 3 kinds of people. One, who dream big but do not have any idea how to pursue it, The second, who are overconfident and end up ruining their opportunities. Lastly, the ones who are confident and have talent. This segment knows what they want and how to move further. For attaining a goal, it is important to strive for it and work on the strategies relentlessly. It is necessary to make proper planning and follow up. We will come across ups and downs but should not lose focus and give up. Work hard throughout and be focused until the desired result is achieved. Now, the question arises as to what are the plans/strategies. At the outset, one has to be disciplined. It is not easy as it sounds, but, requires a lot of commitment. However, it is not impossible. Take good care of physique as it is very important when it comes to self-confidence. Healthy food habits and proper sleep are very much essential. Since hard work is involved, it is imperative that we do not lose hope or be disheartened. Knowing who you are? And what your strengths are? is an area that requires your utmost focus. However, it depends on how we perceive it. Everybody has flaws, but we have to shine through them. Don’t lose hope, be patient, take care of oneself and work hard. The self-confidence mentioned above is closely termed with the power of the subconscious mind as the word uncommon may be a rough word to many but it can make you do the extraordinary. I have seen many people complaining out there that about their life, their failures and obviously the problems they have but they often forget that everything is happening to them is the result of their choices, desires the lack of confidence. The struggle behind achieving that desire and choice is not powerful enough; they focus more on the desire than the ways of achieving it and then complain which is not worth doing. Remember? There can be 999 reasons not to try but only 1 reason to try it because the power of doing is greater than the power of letting go.

The starting point of all the achievements is a burning and intense obsession along with the self-confidence which must be accompanied by both a plan and sticking to the plan until you achieves it wholly. Our subconscious mind acts beneath the surface to accomplish what it is directed to accomplish and that's why the desire is the way to transform our thoughts into physical strength.

The reason behind the success of Great Britain was the way they believed that they will always succeed, their struggle along with their confidence in themselves lead them to great conquerings. Likewise, it's extremely important for the subconscious mind to believe in the visualization and attainment of the desire which is called as “self-confidence” altogether.

If someone lets his subconscious mind to believe in the negative thoughts and has communicated to act upon them and translate them into reality then the power of negative thoughts will cancel the positive energy likewise believing oneself and having positive energy through self-confidence loser to success! Those who neglect the practice to control his subconscious mind are likely to succeed!

As humans, we control our subconscious mind through our five senses but most people don't often exercise the control.

Success people are those who create something from nothing in a real way.

Ever thought? Zero gets its value when putting 1 with it because obviously nothing goes wasted! Have you ever wondered how things come into being? It is when the creator of ideas and seller of ideas work in harmony having a self-confidence that whatever they are going to do will rock! Faultless plans are those which are organized and well planned so before going to put an effort it is necessary to think about doing it in ways and then act in an actable way

People who have no desire of their own are heavily influenced by others and are not likely to succeed but successful people make permanent decisions and work on them with a belief that they are going to make it no matter what as great accomplishments come from courageous decisions.

A desire without willpower is like a room without walls and is the basis of all persistence.

Try to focus on the position, because thoughts which are negative will ruin you and your life.

Faith is faith, it can only come with the self-confidence which comes from the power of the subconscious mind but can never co-exist with fear which will totally ruin it.

In conclusion, there is an enormous value in the key principle of the power of the subconscious mind which produces self-confidence and directs far more of our lives than we can ever realize!
