相信自己。即對自己的想法、做法等的正確性、正當性由衷地抱有堅定信心，在任何情況下，都會堅定不移地為之努力，絕不放棄自己的信念和目標，不含糊動搖，不屈己就人。自信的前提是自我誠信，只有做到了自我誠信，才能給予自己強大的信心，也才能得到他人的信任?！白孕拧彼鶑娬{(diào)的是主體性的樹立，與“自強不息”的精神相通。

Have trust in oneself so that one strongly believes in the correctness and validity of one's thoughts and actions. One who has such a belief will give up neither one's conviction nor one's goals. He will neither waver nor submit to others. A strong sense of personal integrity underlies this sense of self-belief, which in turn wins the trust of others. The term expresses a sense of self, and relates closely to the concept "strive continuously to strengthen oneself."
