This is a great advice and a better way of stating it than I was going to. Confidence is experience combined with being comfortable in your actions. The comfort usually comes with experience, and hence going through the process of all the little actions, and knowing that you can do it. Also, I had to learn that no one is as critical of me as much as I am.

That's a great way of putting it all into a single sentence. Thanks for this.
