really good insights about confidence! i love the familiarity + validation diagram - it is such a wonderfully simple way to visualize the elements that build confidence. i think the spectrum of confidence, to which you refer, is a hugely important element that people don't normally think about. i find people are black and white with confidence: either i'm confident doing something or I'm not. but that familiarity + validation is the real explanation of how it is a spectrum...greater familiarity and validation brings greater confidence.
