Self-assurance
To be self-assured is to know that one has the abilities and the knowledge one needs in a given situation, and to know that one will have access to these when needed. One is assured about oneself - one trusts oneself.
A positive self-esteem and good self-awareness also support self-assurance, so working with these levels will strengthen this one as well.
You might need to work with your self-assurance if
- You often feel uncertain of yourself and
you have poor self-assurance.
- You never believe that you have prepared enough for a task.
- You often ask others for advice,
even when you in reality know the answer.
- Most of the time, you think others’ abilities are superior to yours.
Certain basic skills sometimes need to be improved
One may have deficiencies in certain basic skills, which may lead to poor self-assurance despite good knowledge and skills in a certain area of expertise.

- Perception Channels: Much in the areas of education and information is based on visual skills.

Assess your primary Perception Channel and make demands on how to get information in a way that corresponds to how your brain works!
