Self-confidence, the foundation of success

Emerson once said such an intriguing statement: "Confidence is the first secret of success." Indeed, self-confidence is our companion on the road to success. All the way with us, we are rushing through the waves, breaking through all the difficulties and obstacles, and arriving at the other side of success. So, what is self-confidence? Some people say that self-confidence is thunder, it is snow, it is a sudden wind, sweeping all drag, delay, melancholy and laziness; some people say that self-confidence is a drum, a horn, a flag, and a courageous move forward. It is bold and advancing, and it is refined day by day; others say that self-confidence is sunshine, it is a sap, it is rain, helping people to be quick-thinking, energetic, and swaying everything... confident life is not normal, and life is full of confidence!

Last week, I participated in the keynote speech contest of Hepu County's “Sports of Dreams and Building a Chinese Dream Together”. In the first speech, there were a lot of bad things, but it was not like words, but later I was taught in my school. Under the guidance of Mr. Lu, I gradually made progress. This is the credit of the two teachers. Of course, the self-side is also indispensable. As I just said, “confidence is the first secret of success.” If I didn’t start the game, I would be arrogant, and I would abandon myself before the game. Since then, why have you achieved today? Therefore, students, the external influence is important, but the essence of success lies in you!

This shows that I am confident that I am successful. Then, as an ordinary person, how can our classmates build self-confidence and achieve success? First of all, in the face of difficulties and failures, not to give up, but to easily tell yourself: I have found a channel away from failure and near success. The famous singer Liu Huan’s "Starting from the beginning" has such an inspiring lyric: "Look at success or failure, life is heroic, just start all over again!" Without such optimism and self-confidence, many things will be abandoned halfway. Secondly, we must see our progress and strengths. We all understand the truth: if you are confident, you will have achievements, and if you have achievements, you will be more confident. The results of this are the progress made every day. Classmates, in fact, as long as we pay attention to it, we are making progress every day, so why not take the opportunity to be confident?

Of course, self-confidence is only half the battle. If you want to be confident, you must have a firm goal and fight for it. But what I want to say is that if you have the will, you must have confidence. Strong backing. "If you think you are defeated, then you are defeated. If you think that you are unbeaten, then you are unbeaten. If you think that you will fail, then you have indeed failed. If you think that you are outstanding, then you are Excellent." This is what I saw in the textbook. What a philosophical statement! In the battlefield of life, not always strong people win. But the people who win in the end must be those who think they can win.

I hope that every student can have two points of "frozen" firmness, three points of "Einstein" perseverance and five points "Mrs. Curie" heart-like confidence to promote you very successful. Explain the true meaning of life with the "self-esteem" of "born with my materials" and "inferiority" that I can only defeat myself. Step on the shoulders of self-confidence, fly your wings, leap into the top of the world, be a winner!
