Be confident, stand behind your intellect and remember, you don’t know what you don’t know… who cares.

You should always try to reach for your dreams when you can! It shouldn’t matter what anyone else thinks!

What truly matters is that you enjoy your hobbies, not what your friends or associates think about it.
18. I don't think I have what it takes to start a business.
If you’ve crossed your “T’s" and dotted your “I's" when it comes to your business idea, then maybe it’s time to make a move! You have to believe in yourself and your mission statement.
19. I think I'm too old to go back to college.
You may never be as young as you are today so maybe you should just go for it!
20. I don't think I'm strong enough to completely open up tp my partner.
If you have a loving and caring partner by your side, they would probably love nothing more than for you to open up and show them your true self. To be completely vulnerable is such a great feeling, especially when shared with that special someone.

As you can see, there are tons of insecurities that can creep themselves into our heads. It’s all about recognizing and facing them head on! Don’t be afraid to call yourself out and ask yourself why is it that you feel the way you do. Most insecurities are just fear that we make up in our own heads. But they can also be sparked by people or businesses that don’t care about us in the first place, so why should we allow them to dictate how we feel about ourselves. Just remember, we are all great just the way we are!
