Was machst du, wenn dein mangelndes Selbstvertrauen deine Chancen in der Filmbranche beeinträchtigt?

Agreed Sir. No problems are permanent, perhaps we should search reasons in our life to overcome it and make it look very small. In my opinion rather wasting time thinking about it, we should start working on our self development and betterment as you said sir a small step and a big difference.

Yes an underline assumption is creating a problem. I am not good enough. I am not confident enough I am not creative enough And how did I come to this conclusion ? My self image is possibly generated by any small failure on stage in childhood from which I draw the conclusion immideately and my imposter syndrome helped me to conclude easily. Later this self image is further substantiated by my inaction due to fear of failure ( or poor definition of " failure" ) and other's opinion fuelled to my current personality. But no problem is permanent. Self positive image followed by action in that direction followed by reputation can in loop can Again change the story.

Remember, Moses lacked CONFIDENCE, to name one of the most powerful men in the Bible! Moses’ own description of himself is that he had trouble speaking, and God allowed his brother Aaron to act as spokesman for him (Exodus 4:14–16; 7:1–6). Find out the source of your issue and ask God to help you conquer it as He did for Moses!

Sometimes, lack of confidence arises from uncertainty about your work. Actively seek feedback from peers, mentors, or industry professionals on your projects. Constructive criticism can help you identify areas for improvement and validate your strengths. Additionally, surrounding yourself with a supportive community of fellow filmmakers can provide encouragement and reassurance during times of self-doubt.

A coach of mine told me to add a "Did you Celebrate today?" sticky note to my office door, so whenever I walk out, I am reminded. It takes effort to celebrate your wins. So often we just roll on to the next thing. But this is crucial for building confidence. A big dinner with friends, a fancy new kitchen appliance or even a 5 minute dance party are ways to celebrate your wins. Make it a habit so you have something to look forward to. It's not selfish to celebrate yourself!

Celebrating wins is utmost important to give a healthy diet to your mind . Small win celebration - Dopamine release - temptation to repeat this win again will make our path smoother. Celebrating a small win will pave the way for a bigger win.

How confidence we are can fluctuate throughout our entire career journey. Typically a lack of confidence can be triggered when we encounter new situations or lack faith in our abilities. Many things cause low confidence, it can be due to past experiences or when we feel overwhelmed by a situation. For me keeping a lessons learned or mindfulness journal can help me gain perspective and acknowledge the wins, no matter how small they may be. Sometimes in the hustle of day to day we forget all of the things we've achieved and end up focusing on what went wrong instead of what went well.

Confidence is a weird concept. Either you're oblivious to the task, or you're too self-conscious. if you're the latter, talking to people can help you gain new perspectives on what it means to be a human. Everyone has their issues, nobody is perfect and there's more people who have no idea what they're doing than the opposite. Gaining confidence is a long and difficult road for those who are all to self-aware. View confidence as a skill, and try to practice. see what works and what doesn't.
