Belief is something that gives you a feeling of acceptance that something exists or is true.

Self-belief is a person's belief in their talents and abilities to complete differently or one particular task to achieve their goals.

It means that one should have enough self-confidence to change yourself in the right way but must not over-estimate your abilities. One must set big but realistic goals, acknowledge and celebrate one's achievements, and not compare oneself to others. Self-belief reflects how right a person is to handle various problems and different aspects of life.
