The most important trait of all

Confidence ~ 

Perhaps, most of the people out there thinks the most important trait of a person is kindness, loyalty, love or even generous.

But in my opinion, confidence is by far the most important trait we should train.

This is because of the simple fact that a person's good trait will be useless without confidence.

For example, one can have great vocal or debating skills, but all that is useless if you lack the confidence to join a competition, show it off or even practice with others because they FEAR the judgement people place onto them. 

So what, if a person has a million ideas, but lacks the confidence to express the ideas or suggest it out. 

So what, if you're a very curios person, but lacks the confidence to ask your teacher in FEAR that it was a "stupid" question. 

I'm speaking this from my own experience. I used to be the guy who sits silently in the backseat waiting for the opportunity to roll towards me. 

But the problem do not lie in the opportunity not coming to me or everyone else ... it lies in the person waiting for it. We shouldn't wait for the opportunity, we should stand up and grab it !!

After I've became more confident, I realize my life became much more interesting ~ especially since I became more involved in many more things ~ 

And there is this one thing I cannot stress enough. In my opinion, confidence is a very hard thing to build up, in my case, it took me longer to build my confidence than the judgement of right from wrong, 

However, with the extra dose of confidence, comes another problem ..... "arrogance "

As the saying goes, "too much of anything is never good" 

Same goes with confidence. 

When one is loaded with confidence, one becomes blind to the truth or the opinion of others. 

That is no doubt a very dangerous trait one can own. 

That's why we should be someone with confident with your own ideas and opinion, but at the same time practice an open mind to be able to accept the ideas from others which might be better than yours. 

As always,stay open minded, be confident and stay frosty.  =D
