In order to succeed, people need a sense of self-efficacy, to struggle together with resilience to meet the inevitable obstacles and inequities of life.

    Albert Bandura

When faced with various problems in life, do you feel that you can no longer raise up and all your dreams will be lost? Do obstacles seem too big for you?

Self-efficacy is the key to success in life. In particular, we can say that it is an important pillar for the success of teenagers‘ life.  

This is a concept proposed by the great psychologist Albert Bandura. It is the individual’s belief system in their capacity to execute necessary behavior to produce specific results. The effects of self-efficacy are in each and every area of human beings. Self-efficacy usually develops based on past experience, beliefs, values, and meta-programs. 

High self-efficacy gives mental strength to get out of many big challenges as well as common problems of human life, Some of the notable are:

• Self-efficacy helps us to develop our belief system. 
• It helps us to develop our self-confidence.
• It helps teenagers to Academic achievement.
• It helps any person to overcome phobias, anxiety, stress, etc.
• It also helps to achieve success in any area of life. 
• It helps to improve the amount of effort towards any task.
• Self-efficacy helps to become more focused on goals.
• Self-efficacy determinants of anticipated fears and calamities.
• Self-efficacy strongly influences the power of a person to face any challenges in life.
• Self-efficacy affects human endeavor in every case.
• Self-efficacy gives us the ability to handle adversities and hard situations efficiently.

A person with high self-efficacy takes life problems as a challenge and moves forward with his steadfastness toward his goal without fear of failure. People with high self-efficacy blame their lack of effort without blaming others for their own failures and look for ways to get out of failure quickly. The moral of all these people is extremely strong. Extrinsic motivation is not much needed for high self-efficacy individuals, all of these people are inspired by themselves. 

On the other hand, people with low self-efficacy see little problems in life as a personal threat to themselves and find ways to hide from there. People with low self-efficacy have very little faith in their own abilities so their minds are controlled by their scarcity and weaknesses. 

Although the pattern of self-efficacy is formed in the subconscious mind from the early age under the influence of various experiences, activities, and situations, a person can increase his self-efficacy and develop himself as a person with high self-efficacy. Even this personal development procedure continues throughout life. 

Here are some specific processes through which you can develop your self-efficacy. 

Self-efficacy can be enhanced if there is a definite goal in life and if that goal is realistic and not fictionalized. But not only goal setting is sufficient, you need to connect emotionally with them, you need to bring feeling, and you need to visualize again and again so that you can feel like everything is happening.

Enjoy honestly every success even though it is smaller in life, give a reward to yourself for every success, it can be a lunch in a restaurant or a small gift. The more you enjoy the successes, the more confidence you will have. Success helps to break down barriers of self-doubt and build a high level of self-efficacy. The more you succeed, the more you will get rid of unnecessary fears from your mind and self-efficacy will be developed.

There is a wonderful presupposition in NLP that is “if anyone can do something, you can learn to do so”, make these words your guiding belief which will help you to develop your self-efficacy. Everyone has the ability to learn anything. Try to model an extremely successful person or your ideal person in the field you want to achieve success, follow their attitude, behavior, and thinking process, this will help to increase your self-efficacy. 

“The mind is everything. What you think you become” Buddha. 

 

We all are driven by our thoughts, by our minds, but we have the power to control our thought processes. Our subconscious mind takes on about 90% of the responsibility for managing our internal and external affairs. It is like a horse that has much more power and potential. On the other hand, the conscious mind is like Rider it has less power, i.e conscious mind takes less responsibility, but it can control our thoughts, our subconscious mind. To take control over our thoughts we need to take conscious responsibility, so that when some negative thoughts arrived then and there we are able to stop them. 

Self-efficacy is the pure result of our thought process if we represent any task as irrelevant or critical to our mind, then our self-efficacy automatically goes down. The day we will take responsibility for controlling our thought our self-efficacy will be nourished. 

It is most important what we are saying to ourselves. If our affirmations are negative our self-efficacy will be low. Throughout the day we talk a thousand times with our minds, and these are the words that program our minds. The more our minds are programmed with negativity, that is, if we keep saying ‘no’ to ourselves over and over again, our self-efficacy will naturally decline. If our mind is programmed positively self-efficacy will be nourished. Positive affirmation is one of the best ways to program our minds positively. 

Once you develop confidence in your own ability, you’ll be able to make a real contribution to creating a better world. Self-confidence is very important. Not in the sense of blind pride, but as a realistic awareness of what you can do. As human beings, we can transform ourselves by our good qualities and reducing our faults. Our intelligence enables us to judge what is good from what is harmful.
