Confidence and "Locus of Control"
Completion requirements
View
A strong person, ready to face new challenges with determination, is usually also a confident person.
Where does this confidence come from?
It largely comes from belief in yourself, the belief of being in charge of your own life rather than at the mercy of events. This concept is the basis of the "Locus of control" model, already presented in Week 1 - Module 4 and gone into depth in this attachment.
