Many a times, our friends, relatives
and society tend to misunderstand these two adjectives. I want to highlight a
simple difference from one of my dictionary (Cambridge).
Confident- [certain] - Being certain that something will happen. In other words, certain about your ability to
do things well.
Proud - [Pleased] Feeling very pleased about
something you have done, something you own, or someone you know.
[Important] Feelings that you are more
important than you really are.
Analyzing the
adjective form of both, we can make a simple conclusion that being confident is
not an act of proud even though it may seem so. Some people have all the ability to do certain
things in them still they couldn’t achieve their goal due to lack of confidence.
Being confident is one of the common behaviors that all successful people have.
If you are not certain about the things you do, you will never have confidence
in it. But too confident always make one’s look proud to the people nearby. It
is one of the simple reasons that stopped some people on the last second page of
their goal. Being afraid of looking proud fails them repeatedly. On the other
hand, the society should also change their mindset that being confident is not
always an act of pride. At the same time, confident people should also limit
their level of confidence according to the situation. Thank you.
