In 1871 an astronomer in Europe discovers an asteroid on a unique Earth-crossing orbit. Motivated by this unusual discovery, astronomers around the world begin to search for Earth-approaching asteroids, a difficult and nearly futile task until photographic technology arises to permit effective searches. The science and mathematics for tracking and predicting the orbits of these asteroids develops slowly, until by about 1890 it becomes clear that the first discovered near-Earth asteroid is passing ever closer to Earth on each trip around the Sun, one orbit every six years. It becomes clear that the asteroid, now named Thanatos, will pass extremely close to Earth, close enough to be a serious collision hazard, in 1938. Is this a death sentence for Earth?

Do you doubt yourself a lot? Do you tend to be a people pleaser? Are you a little down because you have the feeling that you are not good enough? Then keep reading....
You are in the weekly meeting at work. You want to speak up. But you wait for the right moment. The men around you interrupt each other, and you do not grab your chance to jump in. After the meeting, you feel bad that you didn´t say what you wanted to say.
Don't worry, a lot women (and men) suffer from this. It can be a sign of a low level of confidence and a low self-esteem.
Maybe it's caused by your genes, or how you were raised, or by something that happened when you were a young girl. The reason doesn´t matter. What matters is that you can do something about it.
Did you know, for example, that famous artists like Jenifer Lopez and Lady Gaga had a low level of confidence once and that they worked their way out of it? You can do the same.
Here's a tiny fraction of what you will discover in Confidence for Women:
