Confidence
If there's one thing I've always lacked, it's confidence. That's not a bad thing despite what some will say.
Yet apparently, lack of confidence is a problem. When someone is confident and does good, it's 'determination'. When someone is confident and does bad, it's 'arrogance'.
I'd much rather doubt myself than be arrogant any day. Confidence is just as much as a flaw as a lack of it is, it's not some ridiculous black and white 'NO CONFIDENCE BAD, CONFIDENCE GOOD' stuff. World's more complicated than that.
Confidence isn't even a thing that comes to some people regardless, so to tell them to be 'confident' when they might not even be capable of it shows a lack of thought on one's part. It's okay to be scared and afraid and by the 'be confident' logic we'd probably all be dead by now by throwing ourselves at deadly things from arrogance.
