What is confidence?

“Accomplishments?” “Successful repetition of any endeavors?”

To me, Confidence is comfort:

• Comfort in knowing that we are playing a game of progress and not a game of perfection.

• Comfort that comes from the accumulation of experiences where I survive my own failures.

• Comfort in our own skin.

I try to apply this to how I want my team to feel.

• I want them to know that we are playing a game of progress.

• I want to create an environment where they can be in their own skins.

• I want them to accumulate experiences where we survive our failures.
