"Confidence is the necessary spark before everything that follows", says educator and activist Brittany Packnett.

Confidence sounds simple

BUT confidence is something that we underestimate the importance of. Compare with the world long times ago, we have more knowledge and technicals right now at any other point in history, and still, injustice abounds and challenges persist. If the knowledge and technicals were all we need, we wouldn't still be here. Thus, Brittany believed that confidence is one of the main things missing from the equation.

 

Without confidence, we get stuck

A lack of confidence crushing us between a flurry of CAN'TS, WON'TS, and IMPOSSIBLES. Once you get stuck, you will not start to do the things you need to do or want to do. 

 

So how do we build our confidence

Brittany believed, it takes at least 3 things: permission, community, and curiosity.

"Permission births confidence, community nurtures it and curiosity affirms it", she said.
