    You need to think about things and picture them done and how it will feel like a good accomplishment. Set goals and be realistic. Realize you can not get anywhere if you procrastinate and make excuses.

    André Maurois:
    If you create an act, you create a habit. If you create a habit, you create character. If you create a character, you create a destiny.

    Lanes Company:
    If you don't make things happen, things will happen to you.

    David Feherty:
    It's how you deal with failure that determines how you achieve succes

    Anonymous:
    A person who aims at nothing is sure to hit it.

    Francis Bacon:
    A wise man will make more opportunities than he finds.

    Typically,we are on the same boat. I am not good in dealing with challenges in my life, fearful of changes and making decisions, thinking ahead that the worst may happen when I'm in front of a crowd. I am pretty much the worst critic of myself. So if you feel like you're the only one having fears and worries concerning confidence and stuff.. think again.

    I did not know your age, but often we get help in life by giving help.
    Spend some time doing work at a local mission ( you can be a atheist and still help feed the hungry at a mission) , go to a senior living facility and read or just visit with some of the people there. Get invovled in life and in helping others you often find the things missing in your own life.

    We all fail, I am not sure how many times President Lincoln failed, his law practice, several business, he was to many in the worlds eyes a complete failure, but he went on to become one of the US greatest Presidents and one of the worlds greatest leaders.

    I understand in working on the telephone Bell failed and failed and failed.

    There is no shame in failure, we all do from time to time, the shame is in giving up
