The Mirage Of Insecurity

Feeling insecure, simply translates to feeling inferior, it may be because of a physical attribute or an intellectual one. But everyone has them right? You already know that everyone has flaws, and no one is perfect, still you can not get yourself out of this bind? Why? Because it's not they who are looking down at you, rather, it's you who is looking upto them. Most of the times, it's not they who have superiority complex, rather it's you, who has inferiority complex.

So, if you're insecure that someone is more smarter than you, that means you don't consider yourself that smart.

The Mirage Of Insecurity (Cont.)

In oder to get rid of it, you have to take a reverse route.

Since, your goal is to get rid of your insecurities, you need to first accept that you don't have that particular quality, you lack that triat, and second, start upgrading yourself in regard with that quality.

If you are insecure that someone is a better speaker than you, than start speaking more, take lessons, write more. If you're insecure that someone has a better, more fit body, start working out.

This is the key, to not try to push it outward, but to embrace it inward.

Realise that your insecurities is just a mirage.
