Hi Golden and Simon
As I have experienced a lift in self-efficacy I have experienced a lift in self-confidence.
Confidence can refer to so many fields of endeavour, it can refer to confidence to be able to do any skill under the sun.
So whatever you want to get confidence in you need to have the Maps in your mind of the Territory, this is having the knowledge of all the possibilities that could occur in a situation and knowing that you know what to do with those possibilities. Knowing what to do when there are unknowns also has a Map.
Photoreading and Direct Learning on a skill to a great extent will form the environment of understanding of what's involved and confidence can flower. You have to have the inner resources to pull upon to give you the feeling of confidence.
Confidence also comes from integrity knowing who you are and speaking honestly, being real and open, and accepting your fallibility.
