Don't be a sheep, be you. But how can you be confident in yourself if you don't know yourself? Don't get caught up in what the outside appears to be, watch yourself over a mirror and discover yourself. Don't fake anything, not your thoughts nor your style, but don't use that as an excuse to do bad things either. It's ok to be alone doing something, be confident.
Dewayne NoelLife has no meaning and the world is there for no reason according to Nihilism. Existentialism followed by saying that, at least, we are not attached to anything, that every decision is ours, that no one will come to help us, and that no one is in control. The beauty of this anarchy is that everyone can create meaning from it. Albert Camus adds that we are abandoned to freedom in search of meaning in a cruel and unpredictable universe. We have 3 fields of action left: refusing to play the game by killing ourselves, placing our faith in something, absurdism. The only way to face a world without freedom and to be so free that your existence is an act of rebellion. It is not the absence of meaning that hurts but the contradiction between looking for meaning and not finding it. We must get out of it in the French way: passion, freedom, revolt. The passion to follow the joy of being for the pleasure of doing it, the freedom to choose to continue or leave, the revolt to live with more intensity rather than sinking into the abyss of meaning. We do not know why all this is happening for now so let's dance and do what we want. Courage is not the absence of fear but the mastery of it.
Alexander McKechnieStop taking the path of inaction and you won't need to care about not having confidence. You can't fake it until you make it, it start with competence and pushing through your insecurities. You first need to believe that you can do it, then work daily. Know that the human brain is pessimistic by default and build your confidence and positivism step by step. You should celebrate wins, small or big, even though they will feel less impressive over time. Even when you're ranked as the best once, how long can you keep it and how hard can you beat others? 1 champion ring won't cover your 10 fingers. Everybody has the same challenges, even small ones like getting out the couch, and you differentiate yourself by not falling in comfort and quick dopamine. Be open about your imbalances and struggles while fighting them, you are human and normal, not a character.
James SmithYou are useless and irresponsible during the first years of your lives. By 25, you have spent a quarter of your life, if it lasts 100 years and knowing that the average age of death is 80 years. By retiring at 65, work is the main period and represents the passage from youth to old age. When you are old, health hinders you so you must not wait to enjoy, knowing that you can die at any age. Enjoy today because you may not be able to tomorrow. The time spent with your loved ones is already well underway, especially parents who you have already seen for 90% of the time that you will never see them. There is a last time for everything but it is never too late to spend time seeing someone or doing something. Take matters into your own hands.
