Question 16: "I lack confidence and hate the feeling of it. I think I can't do things right, which holds me back. I want to feel more confident so I can realize some of my dreams. How would you approach this?"

Kiro:

Confidence is good,
but lack of confidence can be even better friend.

How is that possible?
Lack of confidence can show what you need to learn.

Use your lack of confidence to teach you.
What is it telling you to learn?

Once you know what you should learn,
work hard to learn it.

When you do, you will gain ability
so your confidence will grow.

Lack of confidence serves you in another way.
It keeps you from being arrogant.

Arrogance will lead you to make mistakes
and get into trouble.

Instead of thinking lack of confidence is big problem,
see how it serves you.

Instead of hating your lack of confidence,
bow to it with respect.
