Definition of self-confidence:

It is the judgement that we have of ourselves and that we carry of ourselves.

Where does it come from?

As of a very young age, our need of love and security is going to influence our self-confidence.  The more love and security that parents have given a child, the more self-confident the child will be as an adult.
