Answer 2

I'm Short. I ware glasses and I'm always making myself feel worse than I need to. But if you stop thinking about all the things you hate about yourself or the things you think are wrong and think about the people in your life and the people that care about you, I find the feelings go away rather quickly. I know it's a little cheesy, but it honestly works. Because of just thinking of the positives and the people that truly mean something to me, I'm not so insecure and I've actually managed to land myself a boyfriend, who assures me every day I have nothing to be insecure about. You just have to try and have a bit more confidence in yourself and you'll be fine :) Good Luck x x

Focus on the things you do well.
Also, surround yourself with people and learn all there is to know about them.
Do fun stuff.
Volunteer at a place you feel safe.
You are spending too much time in your own head, you need to see there are amazing people and things to see and do. I suffer from this too, you just gotta get out there, the world is waiting for you.
I've learned that everyone is a little insecure and worried about looking stupid. Stop worring, it won't keep you from looking stupid now and then, that's part of being human. It will stop you from leading a great life.

Answer 4

you are insecure because of past experiences or whatever.

all you gotta do is to build your confidence.
go to the gym eat healthy look good get a job
when you got the confidence
you would b comfortable to do anything
and thus more success and that leads to more confidence more fun and alla that.

insecurity isn't permanent. you can easily overcome it.
just make a healthy plan and stick to it build your confidence
a confident woman/man is sooooo much more attractive than a nonconfident person. cuz you are just going to stand out no matter what.

it's true.

Answer 5

You've got a belief that you're insecure. If you change that belief you'll be set. One way is to act like you're secure, you've got a lot of confidence and that you're powerful. For a lot more on what you can do I highly recommend that you go to a bookstore and buy yourself a copy of Anthony Robbins' Awaken the giant within.

Answer 6

only speaking for myself: i ( to this day compare myself to others, i try not to, yet i still do it) usually, i find fault with myself, i am too perfectionist. so we already know that i have "set myself up" for failure. in my own mind ( i have learned) that i am never going to be pretty enough
, smart enough, good enough, or even measure-up enough, to anyone according to my own standards. these insecurities not all but alot of them have been put there by my own mind and alot of "old talk"
through therapy, i have learned 1. i needed support, ( others just like me)
2. i was not responsible for my childhood however i am responsible for my adulthood.
3. there are good and great qualities about
myself, i just need to start believing in myself
4. yes, i will make mistakes, like everyone
else. dah, we are all human, and so ( me included ) make errors and learn from them.
some of this may help you some may not. i am sharing this so you know that you are not alone
and that yes, maybe one of the things i shared you might want to try. you have nothing to loose
good luck
( past childhood stuff)

Answer 7

I was always insecure also, until I began martial arts training. I had no faith in myself, no courage, low self-esteem, etc. I would suggest that you find a martial art that interests you, that is taught locally to you, and has a good instructor. Other than that, perhaps some counseling would help also.
