How does one overcome being so insecure?
Answer:
Insecurities and Nervousness are emotions that serve us well most of the time. They can be described as little caution flags that come up as we encounter risky circumstances in life. If you ever felt insecure when a friend was knocking a beehive with a stick, you probably benefited from that insecurity. Maybe someone at a party made you feel nervous, so you left, later to hear that he had done something harmful or mean. Again, the feelings were helpful for you. In fact, a person who genuinely feels no insecurities or nervousness is probably very dangerous to be around. These feelings become a problem when they are there all the time or when their presence prevents us from enjoying the challenges and risks of life. Risks, like roller coasters, can be enjoyed. Insecurity and nervousness must be controlled when the emotions rob you of the joy, limit your performance, or limit your willingness to participate at all.Instead of thinking 'what if?' we learn to think 'So what!' Most performers (speakers, singers, etc.) feel there performance isn't up to par if they don't have significant nervousness beforehand. It's what gives them a dramatic edge. Even their mistakes are entertaining. No one sees your mistakes like you do.
Start by doing things you know you are good at and slowly add things to it. Build up your self confidence.
I find that if I fake it until I make it, I can get over the insecurity. So, basically, just get out there and pretend you are not insecure and you eventually will not be.
I hope this helps.
good question
i think u need to surround yourself with people that understand you and will see the best in you
therefore show you how to see the best in yourself
its very tough, especially if your a girl
goodluck, i feel you!
insecurity would arise if the person feels incapable of doing sumthng or if a person is afraid of losing something...he/she just has to realise that they are as good as oders-and a lil hard work and de can outrun the other person..also have faith in oneself and know that you deserve wat u have...so dont have o be afraid of losing it..
It depends on what you're insecure about...
If you don't like how you look -- hang out w/ ugly people (will probably make you feel better)
If you don't like your weight -- exercise and eat right (then you feel better becuase you're doing something about it)
Really tough to reccomend anything beyond that because the question is so inspecific, but for the most part action will change almost anything.
