Why Confidence and Optimism are important to me

To satisfy my need to express my opinion and to help others achieve their "best self", it was paramount to make this blog, "Be Confident and Happy, Keys to Happiness."  Currently a sophomore in high school, making this blog is a new outlet for me, a place to communicate my ideas, thoughts, and opinions.  

I have found the qualities confidence and optimism to be the keys to happiness.  I pride myself on these qualities, and try to applying them on a daily basis.  Confidence is important because it makes me self assured and assertive, and I rarely regret and worry about past decisions.  Optimism continues that same quality as being forward thinking, but also introduces the philosophy of approaching new ideas and situations with a positive mindset.  It is evident that these qualities make a more successful individual in society, one who is self actualizing and has a great sense of self worth.  This blog was motivated by my want to exemplify these values.

Confidence and optimism play a prodigious role in my life today.  As a high school student, homework, grades, sports, family, and high expectations from both myself, peers, and parents all amount to large stresses as a teenager.  If it was not for my optimistic mindset, I am compelled to think that these strainers would be far too much to handle.  I attribute my optimism from my overall calm and relaxed personality I retain during stressful situations, as well as from my church with always serves as an out let for me to express my problems to.  Reducing the stress in my life has made me able to have a vividly bright outlook on my future, and the optimism to know that it is obtainable.  Confidence has played huge for me as I am always able to speak my mind.  Whether for conversation or for input and advice, I feel free to say whatever without regret, and feel joyful doing so.


On this blog I will share thoughts and know-how illustrating how to be a optimistic, confident, and happy individual.  Please enjoy!
