Therefore, my quest to have a balanced understanding of what self-confidence is all about began. Philippians 4:19 says, "I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me." This scripture served as an eye-opener to me and made me brace up to opportunities with boldness, because I've been made to know by my heavenly Father that I can accomplish anything through His strength.

Biblically, it was stated in the book of Matthew 5 during the sermon on the mount, where Jesus Christ was admonishing his disciples He thus said “Blessed are the meek: For they shall inherit the earth." This invariabl...

If you feed it with garbage it will give back garbage, but when the mind is fed with the right contents, it exudes positive vibes.    For the mind to be robust,one needs to feed it with the right things. The mind is not supposed to be blank or idle. If one does not intentionally feed the mind with viable things, automatically the negative things will have no option than to fill in the mind. The mind works in accordance to what is being poured into it. This is what inspires a person to act the way they do. When the mind is right, everything about you will be right. Because out of the abundance or content of your mind actions are displayed. Therefore,if you intend to act right, first have the right mind and every other things will fall in place.     To make the mind robust, first know the state of your mind. Because...
