How to Build Confidence by Overcoming Fear and Self Doubt

True confidence isn't characterized by the absence of fear but rather by having a positive relationship with it. Any time you step out of your comfort zone or take a risk, you will feel fear. That's not weakness because fear isn't your enemy; it's a powerful source of energy you can tap into for your own benefit.
