How should a confident person be like?
Someone who does everything well, believes in his competence, and has pride in his achievements? Or someone who does stupid things occasionally in front of others?
The former description might seem to fit the typical definition of confident people. Innumerable articles and discussions tell us that to be more confident, we need to remind ourselves of what we have achieved whenever we doubt ourselves.
But what if the answer is the other way round? In fact, the ones who are more willing to accept their idiocies are more confident.
