What skill is described as believing in and respecting yourself?

• A. Confidence
• B. Humility
• C. Self-esteem
• D. Pride

Answer: (A)

Believing in and respecting yourself points to confidence. Confidence is the trust you have in your own abilities and judgments, which shows up as you take on tasks, speak up, and push through challenges because you believe you can handle them and you deserve to succeed. It’s more about the active belief in what you can do and your right to pursue goals. Humility focuses on recognizing limits and valuing others; pride can involve an inflated self-view; self-esteem is about overall feelings of worth. While healthy self-esteem supports confidence, the phrase in the question most directly describes confidence because it centers on belief in your capabilities and maintaining self-respect in action.
