Secret of Success - self confidence

If you wish to achieve success in any area of life, the secret of success is nothing but self confidence. If you have observed very carefully self confidence is highly sensitive to our experiences and has a relatively proportional effect on the things you do. The higher your self confidence the better the success, the lower the self confidence greater the chances of failure.
This you might have observed yourself in your schooling days when you are approaching an exam, probably in the subject of your interest, you would never have the fear to take up the examination. Its just because your self confidence is really high. You automatically come out with flying colors. while the subjects that you hate, your self confidence is lying low and hence you just feel you would be greatly relived if the exam gets over.
