Conviction from Confidence, Confidence from Exposure

A huge percentage of my failures have been due to a lack of conviction which stemmed from a lack of confidence. More times than not, that lack of confidence was the product of inexperience of one kind or another. Some people muster conviction and confidence and find success without experience in a particular situation for various reasons I won't dive into now, but it mostly boils down to how other dicey scenarios have played out for them (or others they've observed and can relate to) and the fact that getting out of your comfort zone and exposing yourself to things does greatly increase your odds of success in most senses of the word, even when for no other reason than giving you the confidence to commit to your next uncomfortable leap.
