Question

What is the bigger reason for DOUBT !! lack of "knowledge" or lack of "confidence"?

Answer 1

It is neither. It is the lack of faith.

Answer 2

Lack of confidence and low self esteem.

Answer 3

Lack of confidence and low self esteem

Answer 4

Atheists doubt the existence of God in a complete lack of knowledge one way or another.  But their confidence is exceptionally high to the point of arrogance, in support of atheism.  Faith is still faith, be in anti-theistic or theistic.  Christians doubt God when confidence in him diminishes.  Atheists doubt God because confidence against him increases.  Knowledge one way or another is impossible in a world that is, in practice thus far, agnostic.  

This is just one example

Answer 5

Lack of knowledge to know that if you believe in yourself (confidence) then  their is no doubt only hope :)

Answer 6

lack of knowledge, which eventually leads to lack  of confidence.

let me explain, if you are ignorant about a topic , you are going to have your doubts about it. you dont know much about the topic, so you begin to speculate. if you dont brush up on your knowledge about that topic, then you will keep getting conflicting ideas about it and never know the truth about that particular topic.hence the doubt.

the more deeper you get entangled in your doubt, the more confidence you lose. your inability to resolve the situation raises the level of doubt and hence you become less and less confident.

so if you stock up on your knowledge of any topic, you know the facts as they are. no one can then shake your faith because you know what is right anad wht is wrong . that means you are confident in you knowledge about that topic. hence no DOUBT.

Answer 7

If you doubt on someone who work under you, what you would say? You doubt on his loyalty, honesty or integrity with you or with your company based on something that he made wrong in his job, right? Either he might have done it knowingly OR unknowingly and in this two positions YOU GET BOTH of them namely, lack of confidence and lack of knowledge!

Yes, lack of confidence means if you have confidence on him, you would not mind on his error which you will point out and would CORRECT him not to do it again and this is so because we love the people whom we trust and THAT LOVE JUST OVERLOOK the mistakes they make!

On the other side, it also means,  you have the lack of knowledge on what he has committed as wrong and how and in what circumstances he had committed it and also it does questions YOUR KNOWLEDGE of giving that job without checking his ability to complete it successfully!

In life, in every given situation the LACK OF KNOWLEDGE ALWAYS LEADS TO LACK OF CONFIDENCE!

Answer 20

I find this question to be very interesting to me cause, besides unfortunate mishaps, bad and or negative experiences, sadly within SOME Family households are where children begin to become exposed to these emotional elements of self doubt, and also lack of confidence, lots of parents don't make themselves emotionally available to their children when they seek their attention, there fore forcing them to seek it else where, this is where their impressionable mines become jaded by negative sources, It's sad but true that some parents make attempts to live their dreams through their children's lives by putting them in competitive sports and child pageants where the child is always told that they have to be the best in what they do in order to win and be the prize example, and when they don't win the game or that pageant prize kids begin to see themselves as not 'good enough' I hope this helps.

Answer 28

First of all.. having a doubt is good... only when u r interested in any topic/ subject.. and r striving hard to know it more.. only then will u have doubts and Qs regarding it..

Then.. i think.. lack of knowledge is the cause of doubt for sure.. and resolving a doubt is equal to increase of knowledge...

Lack of confidence.. is the reason for that doubt remaining as it is forever.. coz when u dun have the confidence to Q u dun gain the knowledge.. and the doubt remains...

the process hence shud be like- having a doubt ---> having the confidence to clear it ----> questioning abt it -----> hence gaining the knowledge...

hope i could expalin myself and i didn't confuse u !!

Good Q by the way !

Answer 29
