I have a friend who has been talking about the same business for 3 years but did nothing about it simply because he thought he did not have enough capital to start the business, I have advised him several times to begin anyway but he did nothing about it later I realize that my friend is just scared about the whole process of starting something new, he doesn't want to start afresh and he lacks the confidence of required to be rich.
I have seen so many people in life with the same problem with confidence because they are scared of starting from the ground zero again even though they know the opportunity and see the potential of becoming successful in the process but they are scared of failure and starting all over again. Most people are just trying to save the little they have gathered and not to risk it on something promising and not try to jeopardize the life they have struggled to build.
Tomorrow is not promised and everybody that are successful just have confidence and it is as if they can see the future.
Believing so much in the future you don't see can bring about confidence even though people will call you crazy but it is the line between genius and crazy. If you later succeed and the future you believe so much in becomes a reality people will call you a genius and also celebrate you but if you fail they will call you crazy. the worst that can happen to any man is to see another man living his dream just because he doesn't have the confidence to carry out what could be his life because he doesn't want to be called crazy.
We have to always look past what people will say and focus on doing what will believe in because regardless of the outcome people will talk and if we are still scared of what will say this might even drive our potential helper out of our life. Intelligence people love those who have confidence in themselves and also in what they are trying to do. Nobody will invest in you when you have also doubts about what you are trying to do. Some people are also too smart to make it happen but they are making it happen in their head.
Make it happen and let your head rest.
Some people have confidence but are too smart and keep planning in their heads, they believe so much about what they want to do but they want it to be perfect. I have seen people like this because there is so much confidence in talking about a business but it is all happening in their head and the confidence to start it is the problem because they believe they need one thing or the other to make it happen and at the end, they are also scared of failing what they did not try but it is perfect in their head. Instead of building it in our head and imagination, we should start it anyway.
The reason most people who don't think too much are successful is that they just want to get things done and that is what we should apply to our lives. when we think too much people who are less smart than us will be more successful at things that we know so much about, confidence is very important in life, and must develop a way to grow our confidence instead of fear of failure or thinking about what people will say because all this will not help our confidence level.
Thanks for your time.

Confidence eventually comes when we take first step forward.
We all have ideas in mind some are great ones with potential yet we hesitate to execute or begin with it just because of "it might fail" or like that friend of your who think have no capital for it.
The way I see some people fear failure more than death, fear of failing is where your confidence get shaken easily.
Taking risk is literally the only way these people are successful in their life.. only if we have this mindset of getting things done and let's care about the results later.. everything would've been so much better.

A lot of people don't like to change and when things are working, they will just settle for things. I do agree that it leads to confidence but things are always changing. So you should always be trying to adapt.
That's why they say "Done is better than perfect". In our head, we can think amazing plans to do amazing things but the reality will always be quite different and we have to be okay with that. The worst that can happen is we fail and failure isn't the end of the world. Sometimes, we just have to stop thinking and start doing, it's really the only way to make progress.
