Is confidence overrated?

Question

and isnt con man short for confidence man?

Answer 1

Yeah it's overrated.

Answer 2

it's overrated...unless you ask the ladies.  you could be the biggest ****** or loser and if you are uber confident...some lady will find that irresistable.  you could be extremely smart, funny, good looking, good income, etc. and if you show the slightest inkling that you are unsure of yourself then it will give the woman of your choice the opportunity to doubt you.  You can NOT doubt yourself or others will.  It's natural and we all do it but you have to learn to overcome it.  

this is where NIKE's slogan is perfect.  Don't think about it, Just Do It!
