I got it from my family. There was alot of attention paid to me...even while in my mom's stomach. There were alot of eyes attemtion, and analysis given to me. My family is quite large and I was the first of my generation...as was my mom...as was her mom. I later took the place of mini matriarch... of a this motley crew.

Can't tell you how much the fam was like "do your thing [Venus]!"

I like to think confidence is the way in which you express yourself.

Get to know and understand yourself. Accept and like those parts and sides of you you do like. Remake and approve that which you don't.

Other then acknowledging "the good bad and ugly" of who you are "now", the most important thing is to understand you always have a choice and every choice has consequences, cause and effect. A huge part of confidence is accepting this fact and being willing to deal with what comes next.

My only advice is to learn any craft that you can excel in. Practice practice practice the craft and wait for the accolades to flow your way. The ROI will without a doubt boost your confidence levels.

Yep, confidence is demonstrated ability. There's no fake it til you make it because anyone with discernment will be able to see through it. Once you've shown to yourself that you can chart a course and accomplish anything you can conceptualize then tackling a new goal or task is just a formality. You can then be truly internally powered and know that you can rely on your own resolve and resourcefulness regardless of the situation or obstacle.
