Recently this topic came up as a desirable topic for analysis in JoS Donors platform. The platform works by voting on higher members who choose what we will be focusing upon from a series of topics. We will also be renaming the platform soon to encapsulate better it's essence, as it's for all people who are actively doing things in the JoS.
As I realize this is something very important, I will go over key points here in this thread, to clarify certain things about confidence.
Now, confidence is most of the time mistaken as a feeling; ie, to be "confident" and feeling like this. However, this is not the essence to this, the feeling one has is more of a by-product. Real confidence is something deeper and it goes deep into the mind and psyche. In the seminar it has been explained, with exercises, on how to articulate reaching the roots of this and fixing confidence but it might not be what you expect.
With most topics, people just expect there is just a spiritual solution to it all. For example you want to sit in a basement and you want a magickal spell or formula to just suddenly find the love of your life, without having nothing to offer them. While such magickal formula might exist [yes, there is powerful knowledge] this is not going to make it possible on it's own. Similarly, while meditations can increase the feeling of confidence and so on, the real way to raise your confidence through meditation is only one way. Below this, one must work with themselves psychologically in the following areas:
1. Trauma relief
2. Being powerful in the actual world (productive, achieving goals, etc)
3. Physical fitness or at least having a valid self-image (not paranoid over it, a healthy balance)
4. Doing things for the world and doing something as part of the world
5. Meditation and improvement to advance.
6. Mentally making certain changes to become better attuned with one's self.
Confidence won't come for free and it's something that requires work and possibly a lifetime of work. All the courses you have heard on the subject up to now are fake, especially all these things that are said by "gurus" and related. They are lying to you, especially if they promise an instant fix in confidence. The belief of self-esteem is not built from a single day to another day, and any such rises in confidence are mostly emotional, not hardwired deeply into the mind (this can take time, but it's the best way to enhance your confidence levels).
Actions, progression and actual reforms are needed to attain higher confidence in life. It's not just a feeling.
Lastly, the key takeaway from this is that humans have to improve and advance and that this is what makes confidence truly valuable and truly valid. Confidence is a secondary result of advancement and not the "aim in itself". Further, there are also cases of people who are wonderful and they are doing very well, but still, they don't really believe in themselves all that much (also fixable with time).
The above and further depth of the topic will have the result that there is going to be also a second Seminar on this, complementing the first. The knowledge is very accurate, so when you follow it, you will reach the anticipated results no matter where you are at now. That's the difference with the knowledge offered there, than with general knowledge.
However, as with any opportunity to evolve, it has to be tapped into. For those who will, then they will receive since they make themselves deserving of reception and therefore they get rewarded. That's also the case when it comes to confidence and related; in order to get it and raise it, one has to engage in certain ways of life that make it possible to further it's power and experience. Alternatively, it will hang low until one engages in the proper choices and follows them through.
If someone wants the confidence or power of the 10%, they must not be like the 90%. Even here we have the same analogy. The more people want to advance, the less they want to sit idle and do nothing; then our existence rewards us with confidence, healing and so on. We don't do this, we just wither around and we don't have much to expect out of life really.
If one wants to reach the confidence, understanding, or power, or anything in life pertaining to the 10%, they must do equal amount of effort and love themselves to reach that point.
You can do this but where are the decisive steps?
