It's so much easier when you feel good about yourself, your abilities and talents."* *Donald Trump* *"Giving people self-confidence is by far the most important thing that I can do. Because then they will act."* *Jack Welch* *"There was never any fear for me, no fear of failure. If I miss a shot, so what?"* *Michael Jordan* *"It doesn't matter who you are, where you come from.

If people believe in themselves, it's amazing what they can accomplish."* *Sam Walton* *"Security is mostly a superstition. It does not exist in nature, nor do the children of men as a whole experience it. Avoiding danger is no safer in the long run than outright exposure. Life is either a daring adventure, or nothing."* *Helen Keller* *"Whatever you fear most has no power.. it is your fear that has the power." * *Oprah Winfrey* *"How am I going to live today in order to create the tomorrow I'm committed to?"* *Anthony Robbins* *"We are not animals.

It's that feeling of confidence that can banish negativity and procrastination and get you going the right way."* *Donald Trump* *"Action is a great restorer and builder of confidence.

This special secret, it seems to me, can be summarized in four C s. They are curiosity, confidence, courage, and constant."* *Walt Disney* *"Failure is the opportunity to begin again, more intelligently."* *Henry Ford* *"Confidence is the most important single factor in this game, and no matter how great your natural talent, there is only one way to obtain and sustain it: work."* *Jack Nicklaus* *"A clear vision, backed by definite plans, gives you a tremendous feeling of confidence and personal power."* *Brian Tracy* *"Some of the best business and nonprofit CEOs I've worked with over a sixty-five-year consulting career were not stereotypical leaders.
