What You'll Learn

Confidence and arrogance might look similar on the surface, but they're actually very different! One helps you grow and make friends, while the other pushes people away. Understanding the difference is key to becoming a true leader.

By the end of this workshop, you'll be able to spot the difference, build real confidence, and balance self-belief with humility.

Key Learning Points

1

They Look Different

Confidence lifts others up and comes from inner strength. Arrogance puts others down and comes from insecurity.

2

Actions Reveal Truth

Confident people admit mistakes and celebrate others. Arrogant people refuse to be wrong and need constant praise.

3

Confidence is Built

Real confidence comes from trying hard, learning from mistakes, and valuing yourself without comparing to others.

4

Balance is Key

You can believe in yourself while staying humble. That's the sweet spot where true leaders shine!

Scenario 2: Mike brags, "I'm way better than you at this game. You'll never beat me!"

Scenario 3: Emma makes a mistake and says, "Oops, I messed up! Let me try again and learn from this."
