Welcome to the Leadership Training Blog for JCI Philippines members; this post on Leadership Skill Training about “Self Confidence Key To Success”.

When you are able to make an accurate self-assessment, you will then best understand yourself, your flaws and your strong points. This is very important especially for those who want to improve their own performance.

A person who lacks correct self-assessment of his abilities will most likely initiate reluctance to carry out a task. That is because they feel that they can’t perform the task simply because they believe they can’t. This is where self-confidence is needed.

Self-confidence is extremely important to success. In spite of that, many people still work hard to find it. Unfortunately, this can be a cruel turn of events — people who don’t have self-confidence will find it hard to be a leader and will find it difficult to succeed.

After all, you wouldn’t want to follow a person who is edgy, messing up, and overly remorseful? For many, it is easier to follow someone who can deliver clearly, speak evidently, and exude an aura of poise.

Keep in mind that leaders lead by example. If people see you fidgety about something, chances are, they will imbibe that kind of personality and will be influenced in the end. The point here is that for leaders to direct people to the right track, they must first project the impression that they know what is right and that they know what they are doing.

To help you develop self-confidence as the first step in becoming a leader, read on:

1. Come up with an accurate self-assessment

To come up with accurate self-assessment is to have a good understanding the level of one’s ability in relation to the responsibilities bestowed upon him. For this perception to be correct, the concerned factors must be recognized to a sufficient degree of precision. For example, if the leader says that they can jump safely off the bridge, he must assess not only the physical capabilities of his members but also the condition of the environment below the bridge.

2. Accept responsibility

Realize that what you do are consequences of your choices. So if you are responsible for every action you make, you feel confident in making decisions.

3. Competition for yourself

It is better to beat yourself than the others. You will only create disillusion if you try to come to par with the others.

Lastly, keep in mind that self-confidence is also about stability. To be stable is to balance the act of being self-confident — not too much, not too low. By then, you will become a better leader.
