The Role of Self-Efficacy in Personal Achievement

Self-efficacy is an individual’s belief in their ability to succeed in specific situations or accomplish tasks, influencing motivation, persistence, and the pursuit of goals based on confidence in one’s own capabilities.

A student who believes in their capability to master complex subjects is more likely to engage in learning activities and persist through challenges, leading to academic success reflective of their efforts and abilities.

Coupled with self-efficacy, resilience is vital in overcoming obstacles and maintaining progress toward goals.
