People are insecure because they're weak. People are afraid of living their life strongly because they're familiar with the taste of failure. Insecurity pushes them into a safe zone, where the chances of being hurt are diminished. Without ambition, the chances of failure fall. Even further, our weaknesses can be very real. In refusal to overcome and take responsibility for our weaknesses, we become imprisoned within insecurity. Sure you can blames all facets of society, but, fundamentally, our personal confidence, esteem, and security are qualities for which we are wholly responsible. When people refuse to take that responsibility, they suffer their insecurity because they relinquish their own power to the will and push of others.

If you grow up with people who tell you daily that you're stupid and crazy, it can make you a tad insecure...

I think people are so insecure because we send off such negative feedback to eachother. We have to learn how to be nicer to eachother and accept eachother faults and all.
