Listen, we are all just out here trying to act like we know what is going on, but half the time I am just faking it till I make it. This collection of confidence memes is for everyone who has ever walked into a room like they owned it while secretly having zero dollars in their bank account. Whether you are hand-drawing software in class or looking for a pirate crew on Indeed, you have to have that main character energy to survive!

Confidence memes 

I am all about that delusional humor because honestly, how else are we supposed to get through a Tuesday? You see that meme about new friends seeing your unhinged posts for the first time? That is the moment of truth, honey. You either lose them or you find your tribe. I love the guy who has big aspirations and dreams while sitting in his car. We have all been there, giving ourselves a pep talk in the mirror before heading into a job that we definitely lied on the resume for. That is the spirit of fake it till I make it. It is about Maddy from Euphoria telling us that ninety percent of life is just acting confident. She isn’t wrong! And that job posting for a pirate crew? Sign me up! I have zero experience with treasure maps, but I look great in a hat and I can yell “arr” with the best of them. We are living in a world where everyone is a brand and everyone is trying to look busy, even if that means meticulously drawing a music interface in a notebook. It is about that main character energy that tells the world you belong there, even if you are just a January version of yourself pretending to be a September version.

The Anthony Bourdain quote about putting down phones and talking is the realest thing in this gallery. Real confidence is being able to look someone in the eye without checking your notifications every five seconds. We use these confidence memes as a coping mechanism, but they also remind us that we are all in the same boat. We are all just pretending to be adults while secretly wishing someone would tell us what to do. So go ahead, write that bold note to yourself that confidence is the key, and then go out there and act like a boss.

If you need a boost of self-esteem today, go check out some motivational memes or maybe some main character energy videos to get yourself hyped up. You might also enjoy some successful fail stories or even some workplace humor to remind you that nobody else knows what they are doing either.
