Why Are People Insecure?
The root cause of all insecurity is fear, and it’s shaped by our past experiences
Like any situation, overcoming insecurities can look different for each person.
Insecurity starts in the home, with your primary caretakers
We don’t know how to do something or because we don’t measure up to others
It is due to the relationship they have established to themselves
Narcissists are ironically some of the most insecure people you will meet.
It came from fears–mostly about the future
We are our own harshest critics

Well, we often think it’s because of who we are – it’s our personality, or it’s because we don’t know how to do something, or because we don’t measure up to others. But that isn’t the source. And believing that feeling insecure is just something that happens to us, or that it is just a descriptor of who we are, only sets us up to feel worse. Instead, we need to know where insecurity truly comes from. It’s a feeling. And, all of our feelings stem from our thoughts about ourselves. To understand why we are insecure, we must understand what thoughts we are having that are leading to that insecurity. Once you identify those thoughts, the next step is to realize that a thought – is just a thought.
