Good morning, CoSo!

Confidence is sure of itself. Therefore, confidence has no need to brag. Confidence takes its time, paces its breathing, walks sure-footedly, and gets where it needs to go without much noise or looking from side to side.

Bravado is full of doubt. Bravado fills the emptiness caused by its lack of confidence with brag and bluster. It seizes on meaningless moments to prematurely claim victory. It claims to be the voice of the people when it only voices its own insecurities.
