Helen. Keller once said: "Confidence is the master of destiny." And growth needs confidence support.

Confidence is the pillar of the towering building. Without it, we are just those scattered bricks and tiles; Confidence is the riverbed of a mighty river. Without it, we are just a deluge of waves; Confidence is the fuse of a raging fire. Without it, we are just a handful of cold firewood.

Without self-confidence, we will not be able to grow healthily; Without self-confidence, we cannot grow optimistically and positively; Without confidence, we will not have a sunrise smile and grow up day by day. Therefore, growth requires confidence.

In real life, there are countless things that show confidence. In ancient times, Bian He found that jade was mistaken for stone and cut off his feet for bullying the king. However, he was confident that it was absolutely beautiful jade and was finally carved into the famous He's jade in the hands of the third generation of kings.

In modern times, under the control of strong self-confidence, Li Siguang has searched the motherland for 30 years and successively discovered large-scale oilfields such as Daqing, Shengli, and North China, thoroughly crushing the fallacy of "China's oil poverty theory" with facts. It is not uncommon to fail because of lack of self-confidence. In 1972, President Nixon, as we all know, ran for re-election. Because of his outstanding political achievements in his first term, many people believe that he will win the election. However, Nixon himself was very unsure and extremely worried about failure, so he sent someone to sneak into his opponent's office for installation. After the incident, Nixon repeatedly shirked his responsibility, prevented the investigation, and was forced to resign shortly after the election victory. Nixon, who was already sure of winning, lost miserably because of his lack of self-confidence.

Even a great man like Nixon ruined his political future because of his lack of self-confidence. We can easily see how important self-confidence is in the journey of life!

"We are born to be useful", let us all have confidence to move forward to a sunny and bright future!
