You know when you do stuffs and sometimes you hit a rut and you just don;t know what to do about it? You are just not inspired and you are blinded by the inner self-doubt that usually engulf you at times like this. It's like you are so in the zone that you don't see the forest in the trees so to speak.
How do we gain confidence in the first place? Does it just come about out of nowhere. Of course not. It has to be nurtured. ANd how do you nurture it then? Most of the times it is from external forces. It comes from people who tells u that you are good enough, you are the best and you have done a great job. Essentially from the things you have done in the past. Sometimes, a much less than external forces is you build it yourself. It depends on the extent to your tendency to believe in yourself. How much do you see yourself completing this task? It's a believe system which most of the time stems from your past achievements, which is somewhat external as well(you can;t be knowing how good u are unless you are told so, can you?) or that you are trying to lie to yourself. I said aptly as trying for it is not easy to lie to yourself.
So that's how you build your confidence. Which is not very encouraging for self-confidence sounds like something like a divine intervention.
But what if you are the divine intervention. What if you drew your confidence level too high and mighty and call it hyperconfidence. And lie straight out and strong to yourself that you could do some task which only before that you told yourself it is freaking tough. With hyperconfidence you are the bomb, and you have absolutely no doubt about getting the task done. With hyperconfidence you are lieing to yourself that it is a piece of cake and that nothing will and can stop you from completing the stuffs.
It's a bit like lying which I mentioned just now, which is hard to believe for you have your own believe system, and people just can;t lie to themselves. But it is more than that, it is hyperlying. It's like chanting to yourself that you are an astronaut so many times that your brain began to know that it's true. It's like living no room for doubts that you are not.
Hyperconfident people say this things:
This is piece of cake
Let's divide and conquer the thing
Let see what first I should do
Let's find resources to help me deal with this task
They stay in the ground but not letting the tremor scare them the wit out of them.
Cool idea isn't it? :)
