Word of the Week: “Confidence”
Parents! As we are entering week three of our Keys 2 Life Performing Arts Summer Camp, we want to share with you some of the things we have been teaching our campers! ๐โฃ
โฃ
Last week the word of the week was confidence:โฃ
โฃ
“๐๐ถ๐ญ๐ญ ๐ต๐ณ๐ถ๐ด๐ต; ๐ฃ๐ฆ๐ญ๐ช๐ฆ๐ง ๐ช๐ฏ ๐ต๐ฉ๐ฆ ๐ฑ๐ฐ๐ธ๐ฆ๐ณ๐ด, ๐ต๐ณ๐ถ๐ด๐ต๐ธ๐ฐ๐ณ๐ต๐ฉ๐ช๐ฏ๐ฆ๐ด๐ด, ๐ฐ๐ณ ๐ณ๐ฆ๐ญ๐ช๐ข๐ฃ๐ช๐ญ๐ช๐ต๐บ ๐ฐ๐ง ๐ข ๐ฑ๐ฆ๐ณ๐ด๐ฐ๐ฏ ๐ฐ๐ณ ๐ต๐ฉ๐ช๐ฏ๐จ ๐ช๐ฏ๐ค๐ญ๐ถ๐ฅ๐ช๐ฏ๐จ ๐ฃ๐ถ๐ต ๐ฏ๐ฐ๐ต ๐ญ๐ช๐ฎ๐ช๐ต๐ฆ๐ฅ ๐ต๐ฐ ๐ฐ๐ฏ๐ฆ๐ด๐ฆ๐ญ๐ง” โฃ

We discussed how confidence means feeling sure of yourself and your abilities – not in an arrogant way, but in a realistic, secure way. Confidence isn’t about feeling superior to others. It’s a quiet inner knowledge that you’re capable. Confident people feel secure rather than insecure.โฃ
โฃ
The campers were very engaged and gave great insight. Parents, what additional insight can you share regarding confidence?๐
