"Underconfidence." That is the best description of my state of mind about 20 years ago. I was in my 20's and looking for answers in life and didn't really know who, what or where I was. I did look for answers in some places that I later came to know weren't very good choices on my part.

     One day I crossed paths with a Scientologist named Doug. He asked me some questions about my state of mind and I trusted him with my innermost fears of underconfidence and uncertainty of life. He suggested that I take an introductory course in Scientology and then another course in communication. These courses started me on a path to understanding people and the world I am living in, but most of all they gave me, for the first time, an understanding of myself. Once I had an understanding of myself, the confidence I had always been seeking followed and then ability to achieve my own goals in life. I have had many other successes in Scientology, but I really value this initial one the most.
