Who is the most confident person you know?
Hey…
I hope all of you are doing well…!
This day started at 6:43 for me as I forgot to put my tab, laptop, phones and power banks on charging and I spent doing my morning routine of freshening up while putting all of my devices on charge and then I decided to follow my routine of morning walks…!
It’s currently 7:16 in the morning and I’m blessed to have woken up to live another day…!
I really want to tell you all something…;
After talking about how I cope with my negetive feelings in yesterday’s prompt,
I began to be considerate towards the things I mentioned in it with care and much attention,
Like how much they saved my life instead of thinking they were just a part of this life..!
And,
I genuinely felt happy after a long time,
Thinking about how grateful I was for this life…!
I say that because a few people,
Genuine people who are a great part of my life told me that I seem happy and I should keep on doing what I did…
And to my astonishment I don’t know what it was until I started to think about this as I’m writing…!
A sense of security came with that thought and how i acknowledged the things which helped me get through my sad times…!
Coming back to the prompt
Most confident person I know…
I think all of us are confident enough at some aspect of our life—
Imagine thinking about
A Small Business Owner or
A Music Producer or
A CEO of a large MNC
Or
A Singer,
Or a Writer
(Just like you and me…)
All of them are in a position that requires a high level of confidence and certainty in their skill…
Do you think any of this would’ve been possible without taking risks and trusting ourselves with our initial abilities and skills—
on top of that having confidence to start everything of which we once possessed a figment of…!?
And now that all of us are in a position above others,
I look back at my past and think,
What was it that started all of this…?
Was it the love for the language,?
Or
Was it a need to talk to someone when there was none…?
Or
Was it a blessing that I earned from my teachers back in high school for being attentive enough in my English classes…!
Only fate knows what it has planned ahead for it all…
But,
If you look at it from a third person’s point of view,
Imagine someone who thinks you have a good prowess of the language English;
And for them,
You are a big source of confidence and they might take a good skill from you if they are around you…!
Even if it’s not your first, second—
maybe the third language…!
But the fact that you can talk and write in a language that they lack at;
They might look at you like you are the epitome of confidence and someone they aspire to be like…!
And,
If we are in your shoes,
Maybe you work in corporate world,
And
There is a boss that you look upto,
Who you want to be like;
You like how they carry themselves,
When they talk it feels like a free flow of information that is easy to grab…!
And when they speak to you in a quiet setting it feels like a personal win,
Even shadowing someone like that feels you are gaining some momentum from them which makes you feel that you can reach their level someday…!
And if you get into that bosses shoes,
They might have someone they look upto for something that gives them a chance to grow even more…
Now,
Consider yourself in that child’s shoes,
That employee’s shoes or that boss’s shoes…!
When looked up from their pov,
There is something that we have to learn from each of them;
It’s the matter of perspective when it comes to confidence and a confident person…!
A crook might look upto the underboss to learn skills and his confidence to execute someone or do things that are illegal with such ease that it might feel unbelievable…!
No matter where you look,
There’s something to learn and someone to look upto,
Someone to be like,
Someone’s confidence becomes a bar that one wants to cross…!
Unknown to the fact that there might be someone looking up to them and want to be like…!
Isn’t it…?
Cheers 🥂
