Maybe I see these two as weakness because I have been rejected on more than one occasion and have built a wall of comfort behind not taking action so that there is no place of rejection to fall. My objective for this self-leadership development plan is to build my self-confidence so that I can move to a place of self-motivation and success. After giving the concept more thought, I realized that I harbored a great deal of negative energy and behavioral outputs.
