“Self-confidence is key. You do not have to have the best shoes or a designer dress; you just have to be true to yourself.”

“You have brains in your head.
You have feet in your shoes.
You can steer yourself
any direction you choose.”

“You do have to rise above. If you're true to yourself and you're confident with who you are and you really know where you're coming from, you'll be fine. No matter what anyone says and no matter what anyone tries to do to you.”

“You have the freedom to be yourself, your true self, here and now, and nothing can stand in your way".”

“Power doesn't have to show off. Power is confident, self-assuring, self-starting and self-stopping, self-warming and self-justifying. When you have it, you know it.”

“Stay afraid, but do it anyway. What’s important is the action. You don’t have to wait to be confident. Just do it and eventually the confidence will follow.”

“The Self is only one. Do you feel hurt if you blame yourself or scorn yourself for your errors? If you hold the Self there is no second person to scorn you. When you see the world you have lost hold of the Self. On the contrary, hold the Self and the world will not appear.”

“It is best to act with confidence, no matter how little right you have to it.”

“Leadership tip: Sound confident even when you have no idea. Just do not make a habit of it. They will find you out.”

“Arrogance is a killer, and wearing ambition on one's sleeve can have the same effect. There is a fine line between arrogance and self-confidence. Legitimate self-confidence is a winner. The true test of self-confidence is the courage to be open—to welcome change and new ideas regardless of their source. Self-confident people aren't afraid to have their views challenged. They relish the intellectual combat that enriches ideas.”
