00:00How do you raise a confident human?
00:03The two things for confidence that we can do.
00:05The first is, remember that competence builds confidence, not praise.
00:11Like, telling your kid they're amazing is not going to make them feel like they're amazing.
00:16It's the competence, like helping them develop the skills.
00:20Yes.
00:20And those skills don't have to be that you're like a star violinist or tennis player.
00:25It can be that you know how to cook or put the dishes away.
00:28Just a functioning individual.
00:32So we tend to do everything for our kids, even if they're capable of doing it, but then praise them as if that's building the confidence.
