Confidence for SSB Interview
An officer should be able to command the room
One thing I know that is stopping you from achieving your dreams:
“Comfort zone”
You can do anything you want to, once you step out of your comfort zone. Let me give you an example.
Before I get to giving you tips for SSB Interview, read this story:
This is a story about a tigress named jess that was in captivity in a zoo, who was rescued from an animal sanctuary, Jess had been confined to a 10×10 foot cage with a concrete floor for 8 to 10 years. They finally released her into this big pasture: with excitement and anticipation they released jess into her new and expensive environment, but it was too late, The tigress immediately sought refuge in a corner of the compound, where she lived for the remainder of her life. She lived in that corner until that area was worn bare of grass.
Perhaps the biggest tragedy in our lives is that our goals are achievable and yet we fail to achieve it because we pass out years trapped in the same old patterns. Stop carrying your past limitations ( real or perceived) as a baggage. Often, everything you want is a mere inch outside of your comfort zone.
Step out and be ferocious ✨
If you have decided that you want to become an officer, recognise that it is your career choice, and for a good future you have to invest in it, you have to work hard!
Tips for understanding your inherent confidence:
1. Look at what you’ve already achieved: Note down everything you’ve achieved in your life, and look back at it when you’re low on confidence. An incentive is to be confident is to keep adding things you’re proud of to this list.
2. Analyse what you’re good at, and focus on those strong pursuits to help you build confidence in your own abilities.
3. Set some goals, begin with aiming for small achievements to tick off from your list of goals, this will help you gain confidence in everything that you do.
4. Talk yourself up: Daily self-affirmations of things that you’re good at is an important practice! You must remind yourself of what you’re capable of.
5. Get a hobby: Practicing skills or learning
