Which brings in dependency perhaps? If that job goes or fitness takes a dip, does your core confidence get affected?

Question then is.. if one cannot (or should not?) improve core confidence using a great job or a fancy car or a six pack of abs.. then how to do it?
Good question. Circumstances are different for each person, in my case there are personal goals that I am now working toward. I already have confidence, but know I would have even more confidence if I'm working towards something. Having made that decision, I already feel much better for it.

Goals are not static - if you lose your job, then your new goal might be to find another one. If your fitness takes a dip, then you might look at new ways of fixing that issue.

For some, getting that nice shiny sports car might be their goal; for others it isn't. Really depends on the type of person you are
