i excel at being me
sometimes it really doesn't matter to me what other ppl think..sure that's a sign of arrogance..but i like to think of it more along the lines of confidence..
confidence: defined as the state of being certain or the feeling of self assurance..
i can't comprehend not having confidence in myself or the things i do..without confidence, you lack so many things..you lack motivation, intelligence, poise and common sense..
maybe that's a reason why i can't stand pushovers and people pleasers
i also suppose this is why i come across as a bit stuck up sometimes..but really, all it's about is me being confident..and as a direct result..i excel at being me

mmm. Confidence is a key character trait for me. Much of it stems from faith - hope in that which is unseen - an assuredness which carries peace. Of knowing who I am, my place in this world. Not fully, of course, but to an extent which instills confidence. To know I am weak in flesh but simultaneously made strong in Christ. My worthlessness and simultaneous worth in Christ.
anyway that's the mainspring of my confidence. But it certainly expresses itself in ways not so spiritual as well, pervading every facet of life. I agree, confidence is pretty key. And it is definitely different from pride. Although ya... sometimes people mistake it for pride. And also, we must admit, sometimes leads to actual pride.
Chicken or the egg, I don't know.
I believe/have confidence that I can change the world in some way. And I believe that everyone has that potential - if only they'd realize and seize it.
