Regain confidence

Reconsider what we believe is impossible in our own country

When self-confidence is fragile, it becomes easy to see only our limitations, our mistakes, or what we think we are incapable of doing. By constantly repeating certain things to ourselves, we can end up considering them as truths about ourselves.

L'expérience est simple : lisez d'abord le texte de haut en bas, puis cliquez sur le bouton en bas (Lecture 2 — De bas en haut) pour faire le chemin inverse. Observez à quel point le sens se métamorphose.

Reading 1 — From top to bottom (from 1 to 10)

I am worthless and I am a mistake.

And it would be naive to believe that

I am a person capable of change.

I have no particular talent or strength.

It is pointless to believe that

I can make a difference around me.

I am not capable of making good decisions.

I refuse to believe that

I can learn to better understand my needs, my limits, and my priorities.

My past mistakes entirely define who I am.

It is foolish to think that

My history does not condemn me to remain the same.

I am certain that I do not deserve any success.

It would be misleading to believe that

I am a person worthy of respect and trust.

I cannot be proud of myself until I have succeeded.

It would be wrong to consider that

I can recognize my efforts, my progress, and the ground I've already covered.

Every attempt is doomed to failure and shame.

It would be illusory to hope that

Trying is already a form of success and learning.

I am convinced that I am a burden to others.

It would be incorrect to believe that

I possess inner resources, however modest.

I don't have the strength to overcome the obstacles.

I refuse to believe that

I am capable of resilience and rebuilding.

I need to wait until I feel completely ready before acting.

It would be wrong to consider that

Trust can be built simply by taking the first step.

🌱 Mot de la fin

The words remained the same. Only the reading path has changed.

En remontant le texte, les mêmes phrases peuvent faire apparaître une autre manière de regarder nos capacités, nos erreurs, notre histoire et notre potentiel d'action.

Retrouver confiance ne signifie pas ne plus douter, ne plus échouer ou se sentir capable de tout. La confiance peut aussi se construire lorsque nous découvrons que nous pouvons avancer, apprendre et nous ajuster, même lorsque nous ne nous sentons pas encore pleinement prêts.

Vous n'avez pas besoin de croire immédiatement à toutes les possibilités qui apparaissent dans cette seconde lecture. Il suffit parfois de ne plus considérer nos doutes comme des verdicts.

Et peut-être que la confiance commence précisément là : non pas lorsque nous sommes certains de pouvoir réussir, mais lorsque nous acceptons de nous donner la possibilité d'essayer.
