Imagine a person being stranded on an Island with no people on it, limited food supplies, and an escape plan. The escape plan can be either successful or unsuccessful. In order to determine the success, people would need others to motivate, support, and point out the problems for them. Confidence is when a person has motivation from others or from themselves. At a certain time in life, a person would need some support and motivations from others in order to succeed something. Most people believe one cannot build self-confidence by themselves; it would be difficult to do so.

Motivation from other is the key to success. Without motivation from others, a person will never know what he or she did wrong, will not have any determination to do anything, and will not strive to do better. For example, if a person wants to run a six km marathon, he would asks their family or friends for some support. Family would dedicate their time and money to help support their children to run the six km marathon. When that marathon comes, the family and friends would go to the event and cheer for that person. With that kind of motivation and support that would make the person feel happy and successful. If the person finishes last or first, his family and friends would go comfort the person giving him good comments like “You did a great job!” or “You almost had it. Next time you’ll get it!”

Sometimes, when a person does not have support from others, inside of them will motivate him or her to do better, prove others’ wrong or gain respect from others. For example, Naruto, from an anime show, never got any respect from his village. Everyone looked at him as if he’s a demon. He did not
