For me one of the most important soft skills in life or at work is self confidence. We need self confidence in everyday life to enjoy more the things that matters and to not be always focus on the bad things that can happen. Self confidence is about knowing yourself more deeper and have a better self-image and self-esteem. With self confidence we can also appreciate more our skills and our talents and to use them more freely. Self confidence help to standup for yourself, to not be afraid to raise your voice to defend yourself in moments that matters.
Today especially because of social networks, teenager's self confidence is in decline. I think overexposure of ourself leads to a bigger vulnerability in the eyes of other. We have to help other to build self confidence for them self, to offers them a more easier life.
