How self-confident are you?

Do you feel confident at work and in life? This short test will help you see where your self-confidence stands and what you might work on. Answer honestly - there are no wrong answers, only reflection.

How scoring works

For each question, choose how often it applies. Each answer has a point value:

Always = 1 point
Often = 2 points
Half and half = 3 points
Sometimes = 4 points
Never = 5 points

After you finish, your 20 answers are added up. Possible total: from 20 to 100 points (fewer points means higher self-confidence).
