00:00 How can I be more confident in my decision making as a student?
00:03 No, you do not need confidence.
00:05 You need inquiry and honesty.
00:08 Most people you find radiating confidence are actually just radiating false confidence.
00:14 So remain an inquirer.
00:17 Inquiry is difficult and uncomfortable because the mind wants to come to quick conclusions.
00:23 Say yes or no.
00:24 Have you not seen people do this?
00:26 Please say yes or no.
00:27 Whereas the facts of life are otherwise.
00:30 They demand rigorous inquiry.
00:33 They demand continuous attention.
00:35 You cannot just label them as right or wrong in one go.
00:41 Life is not like that.
00:42 You have to be continuously on the vigil.
00:44 You have to keep asking what is happening.
00:46 Is it alright?
00:47 Is it not alright?
00:48 Do not feel inferior.
00:49 Do not allow others to dominate you.
00:52 And do not be easily impressed by those who appear confident.
00:56 Ding it!
