The striker is set to start for Everton in today's derby against Liverpool.
“I think it’s just because I don’t give up,” he told the Everton matchday programme regarding his goalscoring form.
“I know people in my position would have given up. Me? Even if I go to the last game of the season and I only have one goal to my name, I will still be there, putting in everything I have to make it right. Until it’s over – why think if it’s good or bad?
“My last season was an example of how you can get rewarded for that. When you keep working and you give it everything, things will go for you.
“When something goes for you, like it did for me with the equaliser at Brighton, you get more opportunities to play, when you get more opportunities to play, your game understanding hits a different level and you get the confidence back. I believe confidence is the most important thing in sport."
On his experience with Everton, Beto admitted: "Everton is a club that has really challenged my mind.
"I know I can play, I know I can score, I know I can improve – but the first season here was tough – mentally really tough – then, the second season as well.
“I think I’ve become stronger, mentally. Now I have the mindset that I will just keep going and it will be a sunny day again one day. I can work through anything. I understand that momentum and confidence are a big part of it, too.”
