Reviews" Confidence nails it-if you want to achieve great things, you are better off being your own worst critic than your own biggest fan. Read this book and you will never look at the concept of self-esteem the same way again."- Laura Vanderkam, author of All The Money In The World and What the Most Successful People Do Before Breakfast   "Chamorro-Premuzic has rethought confidence shattering myths about what generates confidence but also reassessing low confidence as a positive attribute. A fresh, more balanced, approach, presented in a well-researched, accessible, and, indeed, enjoyable format. I like this book: a lot."-Robert Kelsey, author of What's Stopping You?   "I can't remember the last time I finished reading a book and wanted to applaud.  Confidence is a life-changing book - it will convince you, through brilliant arguments and an abundance of compelling evidence, that much of the advice you've been given on how to be successful is worse than useless.  In fact, it's been holding you back.  Before you read anything else, read Confidence. "-Heidi Grant Halvorson, PhD author of Focus and Succeed   "Maybe you have always intuited, as most sensitive people do, that all the talk about boosting self-confidence and raising self-esteem is not the answer to success or happiness.  This charming and thoroughly fact-based book will give you the evidence to back your wisdom, that being kind and competent works best."-Elaine Aron, PhD, author of The Highly Sensitive Person and The Undervalued Self                                                , " Confidence  nails it-if you want to achieve great things, you are better off being your own worst critic than your own biggest fan. Read this book and you will never look at the concept of self-esteem the same way again." -Laura Vanderkam, author of  All The Money In The World  and  What the Most Successful People Do Before Breakfast   "Compelling and zippy." - Financial Times   "I can't remember the last time I finished reading a book and wanted to applaud.   Confidence  is a life-changing book-it will convince you, through brilliant arguments and an abundance of compelling evidence, that much of the advice you've been given on how to be successful is worse than useless.  In fact, it's been holding you back.  Before you read anything else, read  Confidence. " -Heidi Grant Halvorson, PhD author of  Focus  and  Succeed   "Outstanding." -Inc.com   "A provocative work, an excursion into the role of confidence at work, in relationships, and the impact on leading a healthy life. Dr. Chamorro-Premuzic repeatedly challenges our beliefs, which makes for a stimulating read." -The Globe and Mail   "Maybe you have always intuited, as most sensitive people do, that all the talk about boosting self-confidence and raising self-esteem is not the answer to success or happiness. This charming and thoroughly fact-based book will give you the evidence to back your wisdom, that being kind and competent works best." -Elaine Aron, PhD, author of  The Highly Sensitive Person  and  The Undervalued Self     "Interesting and transformative thinking that will not only have you accepting your inner critic and low self-confidence, but embracing it.... Chamorro-Premuzic writes in a kind, gentle, yet authoritative tone that will inspire the "insecure" reader and retire the over-confident ones....a new and enlightened perspective...This book is required reading for any professional." - Small Business Trends  "An expose of the dark side of confidence. I absolutely loved it, because it shatters so much incorrect but conventional wisdom with key scientific research." -Matthew E. May, Rise Networks   "Chamorro-Premuzic has rethought confidence shattering myths about what generates confidence but also reassessing low confidence as a positive attribute. A fresh, more balanced, approach, presented in a well-researched, accessible, and, indeed, enjoyable format. I like this book: a lot." -Robert Kelsey, author of What's Stopping You?   "Pleasingly counterintuitive." -- Elle   "Buy and read this book. Give it to a young person...I dare say I'm confident it could turn a life of miserable self-doubt into a life of empowerment." -Doug Michaelides, Vice President and Practice Leader, Sales and Marketing, for Stratford Managers Corporation   "Persuasively argues that we've taken our culture of self-assurance and self-promotion too far." - Harvard Business Review
