The story of Thomas Edison best exemplifies the idea of believing in yourself. Thomas is an American scientist famous for many inventions. At one time, he set out to construct an electric light bulb. In his quest to complete the project, he hit so many deadlocks, enough to make anyone give up.
Thomas Edison believed in his ability to make it work and decided to keep working until he got it right. This self-believe he had birthed his famous saying, “I have not failed. I’ve just found 10,000 ways that won’t work.”
The willingness to learn from his mistakes and the belief that he could achieve his goal despite the challenges made the invention of the electric bulb a reality.
Adapting a positive mindset to fuel your self-belief
A positive mindset is the foundation upon which self-belief flourishes. When you have a positive mindset, you see challenges as opportunities, setbacks as learning experiences, and failures as stepping stones toward success.
Having a positive mindset helps you to believe in your ability to navigate whatever situation comes your way. When you approach tasks with positivity, you’re more likely to invest effort, stay committed, and find innovative solutions.

- The last tip for building your self-belief is visualization. In order to strengthen your belief in your abilities, you can envision yourself as though you have already achieved your goals. For instance, say you want to become a professional basketball player and play in the NBA, every once in a while, you can imagine yourself as an accomplished NBA player, living the life of your dreams.
