Confidence

Being in control.

Empowerment.

My fate is in my hands, as the Irish say.

I booked my flights, my car rental, my hotels. I scheduled my appointments. I chose the restaurants. I arranged everything myself.

Last night I asked the question,"How does one get confidence? Is it acquired?"

I thought that you gain confidence through achievement. The more hurdles you overcome, the more confidence you gain.

I noticed that a self-confident man is extremely attractive to women. But how does a man become self-confident?
