The book was discussed in detail, focusing on the difference between confidence and evidence, and how to cultivate confidence by selectively choosing memories and narratives. It emphasizes building a 'mental bank account' of positive experiences and using that to build confidence in new tasks.
I don't believe in myself. I have evidence.
I have evidence because I've looked for it. I haven't left my attitude, my confidence up to chance. I have deliberately sought out that evidence as I carefully filter the memories from my past and as I carefully filter the way that I talk to myself.
Confidence to me is a knowledge of what one is capable of doing and that is different to me than just faith which one might take without evidence.
