: that link is not applicable - she is saying "one thing I'm sure *of* about myself (though she omits it) - doesn't mean your entry is wrong; it's just not a good link. "Sure of myself" = confident; "sure about myself" = wavering or insecure

make up one's mind
Предлагаю как вариант. Возможно, это выражение звучит более разговорно, чем оригинал, но все равно оно мне кажется уместным.
I've made up my mind (about myself). I'm a creator.
