The opposite of anxiety is agency - training yourself that you can handle a wide variety of situations, independently, and successfully 🩷

And u cannot change the goalpost afterwards. Doing smth that scared you bc it was hard and then going “well it wasnt that bad anybody could do that” will mess you up!

The original word for “confidence” is the Latin word “confidere” which means to “have full trust” so confidence is less about ego(like a lot of people believe it is) and just the ability to trust yourself or others so it really is about developing self trust 🥰

this is why I watch Survivor. it's people proving to themselves that they are capable. it makes me want to push myself further and work harder at all of my goals. I tell myself that I CAN do hard things

I’m 37 and am graduating with my Bachelors degree in 3 weeks. I’ve worked full time while going to school part time for the past 2.5 years. I move different now - the confidence that has come from proving myself worthy of this accomplishment feels incredible. Everyone has the magic in them ✨
