Self Esteem And Confidence


(Nitin)

I am an above average tennis player who once had a lot of confidence.

The next year my friends were far above my level, and one 11 year old was a high school level.

My confidence dropped and I lost many matches.

Soon I felt like quitting tennis forever. That's when I realized that my weakness was in my confidence.

Ever since I practiced hard and never gave up. In the end I didn't beat every one but I was third best.

If you work hard then you can surpass the the elite.

Now I have a long road ahead of me.

Thanks for sharing, Nitin.

Yes, one way to fuel your self confidence is to remember all the hard work you put into training.

You know that this will help you play better.

You cannot control the outcome of the matches and so I don't recommend that you base your confidence on win-loss record.

Rather focus on effort - which you can control - and be confident, that this will undoubtedly improve your game.
