Is it your job? Your financial position? Your house? Your family? Friends? Or just an inner happiness with what and who you are?

It comes from within. The external stuff if transitory.

Inner Happiness

My inner strength & confidence come from being a practising Scientologist. Those who ridicule it are niaive and do not know the truth. It really has turned my life around and I have found true inner happiness :-)

All of the things mentioned are helpful, but material things don't bring inner strength or happiness. We have to look within ourselves to find what we like or don't like. If there are undesirable things, we make a effort to change. Learn to like yourself by taking good care of yourself and try to keep a positive attitude. God also provides a lot of inner strength for me. Good luck and God Bless

My faith. I am not a religious person, but I am a spirtual person. When my mom died, and she was really so peaceful, I knew that wherever she went, I want to go there someday. So I do my best at being good. I try not to judge others, and I try VERY HARD not to let others judgements on me cloud my mind. Im very happy with who I am as a person, and I believe I was put here to do good things and I work on that as much as possible. I think all of the things you mentioned above besides family and friends are really things that question my strength sometimes. My family and friends add to, and benefit my life immensely. I am very content with the way my life is going, and I hope it continues this way for all my days.

My inner strength and confidence comes from the fact that knowing that "if God be for me, who can be against me?" I fear no man, I only fear God, and my greatest competition is pushing myself to outdo something I have already done.
Material things do not define me, no matter how much of it I have. When it is gone, my true self will be all that shows, so that is all I work on.
I know that there is a lesson in all things and I know that when I am at my best, the devil is trying to be at his worst. So my strength comes from knowing that as long as God is on my side, I have no fear at all.

First of all it is an inner happiness with who I am; knowing that I only need to survive one day at a time; that I have the power to choose to be or not offended by someone or anything; that I have the power to love inconditionally; that I don't need another person to tell me how to be happy; that I choose to be happy every morning...

it is within you and its not friends ,familly or job these things are on the surface and can help but i say to you honestly learn to love yourself not in a condecening way to others but find your inner strength with mediation or religion it doesnt matter.But at the end of the day you were born alone and will die such so find peace in youre soul and show it to others .you will wake up happy with love and thats the strongest strength

I think what gives me inner strength, is knowing that Jesus loves me and that when I die I will be going to live with him in his Fathers house.

The hope that things will get better. I think that hope exists within all of us. Depending on the person though, it is sustained by family, job, financial position and all these things you mentioned.

I believe in three main things regarding my strengths and confidence:
1. Believe in God (Allah)
2. My Parent's support (they pray for my success a lot)
3. Hard working ( I Believe If you work hard to get things done you will definetly get it...sooner or later)
