THIS is where CONFIDENCE comes from #jayshetty #shorts
Jay Shetty explains that confidence is built through developing competence and repeatedly showing up for yourself, which creates evidence of your capability. This foundation of confidence then extends positively into all areas of life.
Summary
Jay Shetty presents a framework for understanding the source of genuine confidence. He argues that confidence is not an innate trait or external quality, but rather something that is constructed through two primary mechanisms: building competence in specific skills and areas, and consistently demonstrating commitment to oneself through repeated action. The speaker emphasizes that the key is creating evidence—tangible proof through your own actions—that you are capable and reliable. By combining skill development with consistent follow-through, individuals establish a foundation of self-trust and capability. Shetty concludes by noting that this confidence that originates from competence and self-integrity has a radiating effect, positively influencing and shining through into every other dimension of a person's life.
