GaryUranga it depends if you are outcome dependant or not. If you believe you are the sh!t period, and don't care what happens or what anyone thinks it will work. If you think you are the sh!t but the when a girl shoots you down you think 'What happened? I'm supposed to be the sh!t' it aint gonna work because you obviously have deeper level problems. The second one happened to me... more than once.
More important that 'believing you are the sh!t' is not caring about the outcome. This is when you have belief in yourself and you are secure enough to know that her reactions say more about you than her. It's having an abundance mentality. It's truly believing that you don't need a girl in your life. People talk about all these things here and on some level you can gain anew belief but I don't think it can be truly strong untill you ahve ahd experiance with it.
Everyone has their own path and there are different means to an end. I don't have delusion confidence anymore, I am just completely secure with who I am. I don't get down about rejection anymore. At the same time that delusion confidence was good in some ways, but it was always shallow for me. Not having that doesn't mean that you can't have got rid of your negative beliefs. For me it is confidence not arrogance, security not delusion.
But this could all come down to semantics. I am sure you are going great and have a good mindset
To redspicyflag, just don't believe that rejection will always hurt.
