In today’s episode, Aliya will enter the sorry world of teenage confidence. How does confidence impact your life and decision-making? There’s no better role model to use for this issue than Forrest Gump. Forrest out of all people should have the least self-esteem since he’s been bullied all his life. So then, how does he go on to win a medal of honor, start a multi-million dollar shrimp company, and play for the All-American Team in the Chinese Ping Pong Diplomacy Program? Whether you read the book, or more likely, watch the movie, there is a lot to discuss when it comes to Forrest Gump and his earth-shattering mindset.
