Are you a confident man?
Author's note: hmm, I did not think I'm THIS confident before the quiz, but oh well, since confidence is merely a matter of attitudes and perspective, accurate or not, this is likely induce self-fulfilling prophecies just as what astrology did to most people. The future me will likely try to emulate what's been said of me as follows.
Think of your confidence as like the bank balance of your wellbeing. When you're in the black you can face anything life chucks your way. You respond with a positive attitude and don't worry if things don't go to plan. But when your confidence is in the red your performance suffers across the board. You take things personally, self-belief drops, you stop being a 'do-er' and you’re even at risk of becoming stressed out.

High levels of confidence - (complete confidence)
You've got confidence cracked but make sure it doesn't border on arrogance. It can be a fine line at times.
Make a point of encouraging others so that your confidence spreads to them.
Definitely let less confident colleagues/friends have their say seeing as you probably always express your point of view/opinion.
Keep thriving and being confident at work but be careful it doesn't build into an excessive need for achievement.
Allow yourself some daily down-time where you just chill out and enjoy some relaxation - great for keeping a good balance in your mental attitude.
