It is the foundation of all personal success.

Self-confidence is extremely important in almost every aspect of lives, yet so many people struggle to find it. People who lack self-confidence can find it difficult to become successful. After all, most people are reluctant to back a project that's being pitched by someone who is nervous, fumbling, and overly apologetic. On the other hand, you might be persuaded by someone who speaks clearly, who holds his or her head high, who answers questions assuredly, and who readily admits when he or she does not know something.Self-confident people inspire confidence in others: their audience, their peers, their bosses, their customers, and their friends. And gaining the confidence of others is one of the key ways in which a self-confident person finds success.

The good news is that self-confidence can be learned and built on. And, whether you’re working on your own self-confidence or building the confidence of people around you, it’s well worth the effort. If a man has willed, he will find the way to do a thing. He must summon all our powers, physical and mental, and bring them to bear on the performance of a work.It there is this single-minded devotion, success is bound to come.

Of course, success can come in those fields of life in which one's aptitudes find sufficient scope and one's ambition is related to one's powers and parts. Therefore, we must know how to choose our vocation, according to our taste and temperament, our capability. People must have pleasure in their work. Often failures in life come through a mistaken choice of life's vocation.

If people are able to choose their career according to their natural inclinations, the chances of success are very bright.
