I have a bunch of brothers, and it is incredible how they are all so different from each other. Yet, two of them are similar in how confident they are despite using that confidence in very different ways.
My older brother is an engineer and a US Veteran. He thinks he is always right, and it is impossible to convince him otherwise unless it is extremely obvious. He is constantly building things, fixing things in practical (sometimes ugly) ways, and just filling his life with all kinds of small projects.
On the other hand, my younger brother is a Doctor. He works hell of a lot while completing graduate studies. He chose a complex and demanding branch of medicine (internal medicine), and I am sure his confidence helps him a lot in achieving his goals. I do worry about him because he can get awful migraines when he lacks sleep and is under a lot of stress, but I hope for the best.
My brothers are the way they are because of our dad. My dad exudes confidence as well. It’s a good thing he is smart because confidence and stupidity are a dangerous combination, and I’m thankful that’s not the case with my dear family (hehe).
Being the only sister they have, it is funny that I’m not nearly as confident as any of them. Still, oh well, I am constantly working on improving myself every day (it’s something!). Thanks for reading, and have a wonderful day filled with confidence and happiness.
