self-esteem or self-confidence

[Guest guest]

Hello Rose-Marie,

Without a formal dictionary - these are my thoughts:

1)Self-Esteem for me means I think well enough of myself and my

abilities to make a first contact, then get an appointment, then walk

into the Board Room of The Nestle Company and ask them to become

sponsors.

2)Self-Confidence means I dress up in my power suit, do my hair, makeup,

KNOW WHAT I WILL SAY, take 100 Fact Sheets with me, walk into some huge

towering building and potentially intimidating situation with my head

held high, make my presentation to Executives who know nothing about

CMT, graciously make my pitch, subtly close the deal, and thank them for

their time. When I get to my car with windows UP I say " YES! Good job

G! "

I do feel self-esteem and self-confidence are connected, at least for me

anyway.
