A feeling of ease with yourself and your situation.
2) Where does confidence come from?
Kindness to yourself.
3) Can you think of someone who is completely confident?
Yes and no. I know a couple of people who are totally at ease in any social situation they find themselves in. I suspect however that it's a mask for insecurity.
4) How can you tell if someone is confident or not?
Erm, observation?
5) How do you feel when you talk to someone who is not at all confident?
Fine. I try to put them at ease, but that can be quite hard sometimes.
6) Does a confident person always feel confident?
Nope. A confident person may often by quaking on the inside. The point is they don't like it show.
and my own one for number 7:
7) What is the difference between being confident and acting confident?
If it walks like a duck and it quacks like a duck, then it's fair to assume it's a duck.
