Self- Confidence

Never let anyone dissuade you. If you believe you can achieve something and they believe you can't, it breaks my heart to see people listening to the dissenting voice of confidence of others in their inabilities rather than listening to their own inner 'Voice of Confidence', in their abilities.

In face of your subsequent success, you will be amazed to see the sheer speed at which these dissenting voices of confidence suddenly sing hosanna and congratulating you. You just have to experience the high of that moment...

Let me share my latest free verse with you:

“

This what they call Self-Confidence

is soon you will find

just a worm of strong belief

hidden deep down

in your mind

Dad said No

and so did mother, brothers,

Uncles, cousins

and friends. They all loved.

They knew the task was grinding.

Thus NO.

But

You trusted the worm hidden in your mind the others were blind

with the outcome now in the hind

Sheepishly they Congratulated.

Some Uncles in whispers said in our hearts we always knew

you could do it !

Mom smiled.

Looked up and said

Good

but too risky

Don't try it again! “
