There are two aspects to our brain when it comes to trying out new things. One of them is the activation system and the other is the inhibition system. The
activation system encourages us to do things based on potential rewards, for example like putting up our profile on a dating site in the hopes of meeting our future soul mate. The inhibition system on the other hand uses our basic survival instincts of stress and anxiety to stop us from doing thing that might be uncomfortable or just plain risky.
People who push themselves into the activation mode by bypassing their inhibitory thoughts will be able to create their own opportunities of luck – because they are willing to talk to strangers, get out of their comfort zones, ask for help, seek a promotion and so on.
After all, the trait that makes us attractive and magnetic, confidence, is nothing but our capacity to focus more on the rewards and outcomes than on any potential risks.

So, as parents who want to raise well rounded adults, we want to give them the right tools for their personal development.
Here is CONFIDENCE as described as the 6 C’s of Future STRONG.
