Importance of Self-confidence for Young Scientists

The quality of self-confidence is very important and truly necessary for young scientists. Without self-confidence it would be impossible for the scientists to accomplish① their research projects. As we know, sometimes research is very difficult and needs one‘s confidence and strong will to carry it on.

Let us take Albert Einstein for example. He published his theory of relativity② when he was in his thirties. At that time, few scientists would accept this young man‘s idea. However, Einstein had great self-confidence and stuck to③ his discovery. As time went by, his idea on relativity gradually became popular, and has finally been adopted in the world.

Self-confidence is closely associated with one‘s education background and working environment. Young scientists sometimes lack confidence in themselves simply because they are young and not experienced. In addition, they haven‘t established their status④ in their fields of research, and they are not sure if they can succeed or not.

To gain self-confidence, one needs to have strong motivation⑤ and has to work very hard. If you could manage to be successful in even a simple task assigned to you, you will build up your confidence step by step⑥. Certainly you‘ll meet with some failures, but don‘t give up and keep on working. One day you will succeed and will have more confidence for any kind of work.
