What is International Confidence Month?
International Confidence Month, celebrated throughout April, is a global movement dedicated to raising awareness and changing the narrative around confidence. Millions of people silently struggle with self-doubt, low self-worth, and hesitation—holding them back from opportunities, success, and personal fulfillment. This initiative is about rewiring the way the world sees and builds confidence, proving that confidence is not an emotion, but a skillset, an attitude, and a behavior that can be built and strengthened at any time.
This month, we are equipping individuals with neuroscience-backed tools, resources, and exercises that ‘biohack’ confidence at both a physiological and cognitive level. These strategies rewire neural pathways, reshape self-perception, and help individuals develop confidence as a default state, rather than something fleeting or situational. Confidence is not about luck or personality—it is a trainable skill that has the power to transform careers, relationships, and every area of life.
Myths About Confidence:
• You either have it or you don’t.
• Confidence is an emotion.
Realities About Confidence:
• Confidence is not an emotion—it’s an attitude and behavior, meaning it’s a skillset that can be strengthened at any time.
• Confidence isn’t something you’re born with—it’s something you build through self-belief and daily actions.
• Research from the University of California, Berkeley identified 27 distinct human emotions, yet confidence is not one of them. Confidence is a mindset, not a fleeting feeling.
The Overarching Mission of International Confidence Month Is To:
Raise awareness and changing the global narrative around confidence, emphasizing that it is not an emotion, but a trainable skillset that anyone can develop.
