Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Confidence helps us feel ready for life’s experiences. When we’re confident, we’re more likely to move forward with people and opportunities-not back away from them. And if things don’t work out at first, confidence helps us try again. It’s the opposite when confidence is low.

Detailed explanation-2: -Confidence in one’s abilities generally enhances motivation, making it a valuable asset for individuals with imperfect willpower. This demand for self-serving beliefs (which can also arise fromhedonic or signalling motives) must be weighed against the risks of overconfidence.

Detailed explanation-3: -Self-confidence is an attitude about your skills and abilities. It means you accept and trust yourself and have a sense of control in your life. You know your strengths and weakness well, and have a positive view of yourself. You set realistic expectations and goals, communicate assertively, and can handle criticism.
