Perfectly Confident

Don A. Moore

Confidence is a potent weapon – yet it must be earned. When you're making choices, don't forget to take into account a variety of scenarios so you can be more well-informed and better adjust your confidence going forward. False confidence will be quickly revealed, while authentic self-assurance comes from recognizing your limitations. Create a likelihood prediction. The next time you're tackling a major task or working towards a long-term objective, jot down your estimation of how probable it is for you to finish the job within several different time frames. This exercise will likely provide you with a clearer understanding of the actual time required. Once you're finished, you can review your initial forecast and gain insight into whether you have a tendency to over- or underestimate tasks, and the reasons behind it.
