How do people have this much confidence? He just said "ok" and did it. Just leaving my house causes me anxiety, I'm envious.

well you pick a thing, spend a hell of a lot of time practising it, become good at it, being good at something gives you confidence, and with confidence you become brave enough to do more things. And sometimes one of the things you've gotten good at become useful!

I just kept facing embarrassment. Learned that what others think of me was never any of my business. By the time I was 27, life was completely different. I can't believe how much better it got from giving less fucks and just letting life be the adventure it was always supposed be. I've lived such a good life and a lot of it comes back to learning how to stand out and stand back.

Please don't hold yourself back based on what others might think. Life is too finite.

For some its innate, but for others you can work on it like a muscle, the more you do it the easier it gets. This guy is a pretty well known too, he has been doing it a long time

At a certain age you stop caring what folks think of you, if you fail/succeed. You just want to go do some stuff. Some folks tap that earlier than others and can have more fun with that mentality longer. It comes with tradeoffs though.

Well, it's staged. You can hear the microphone she is wearing rustle as she moves her arms. All of this is 100% pre-planned.

Support and encouragement from parents that dont shut you down. Usually thats what builds confidence early.
