13. Average Advice - Confidence
We believe that one of the most important traits one can obtain is 'confidence'.
Confidence is something that everyone should have, but it is not always obtained easily. Confidence leads to a better understanding and comfort within yourself, which in turn leads to strength, charisma, and humour. These attributes are key to obtaining many things that are desired in life, such as relationships and employment.
Join us as we discuss the times we had low confidence, how we sought out to increase our self-confidence, and how our lives improved once we found that confidence.
