The book touches upon confidence, with references to faith and the Bible. The author quotes William McFree: “The world belongs to enthusiasts who know how to keep their calm,” adding, “Stay enthusiastic, but keep your enthusiasm under control.” Each chapter begins with a biblical quote.
The book seemed designed to make the reader believe specifically in what the author believes. This approach felt somewhat forceful.

The book offers motivation and positivity. “It’s pathetic that so many people, especially young people, are so sad, feeling that something terrible is happening to the current world. There are a lot of things wrong in the world, […] there is something wrong with everyone and everything. But we must not forget what is good in things.”
People often see the negative side, complain about what doesn’t work, and “judge a book by its cover.” Concentrating on the good, even if a moment has only one positive aspect, is vital. This may be the most important lesson from “About Confidence.”
This book offers a relaxing read.
