alright. i know i'm awesome. i just need to get that out in the first line. i don't have deep game issues. i've been instilled since birth with the ideal that i am an amazing person in every possible aspect. however, having said that, every now and again, i run into a situation that makes me feel insecure. i realize this is tough to offer advice on because you guys don;t have any information about the situations and scenarios surrounding it, but im not sure you need information. does anyone have a quick little thing that they do that helps em deal with that feeling of not being good enough? as a bit of background, i am in a relationship. im a traditional guy who doesn't really believe in plate spinning if your in a committed relationship (so not an option); that's merely my belief, don't condemn me for it. thanks in advance for the help you guys.

I'm sure everyone 'feels' insecure or inadequate in atleast fleeting moments.

The idea is that you must conquer these emotions. Do not let them control you.

Women act on emotions, men do not.

As far as not being good enough for something, look at it rationally. Are you trying out for the Denver Broncos? Or are you applying for a job?

Don't let fear control your decisions. You know what you are capable of. You know what you must do to be capable of much more.

Wanna know something cool?

It's ok if you're not good enough.

The sun will still rise, the waves will still crash on the beach, even if you're not good enough. In less than 100 years you're going to be dead as well as everyone around you. All them. DEAD.

As far as being insecure... a great way to get over insecurities is to purposely put yourself in places where you feel insecure. Kill your ego. It's protecting you from living!

Anxiety comes from NOT knowing YOURSELF in a wide variety of circumstances.
Identity Insecurity.
This is in constant flux, and needs to be worked on.


A 'quick fix" in the moment is Deep Breathing. And concentrating your inner focus on your Solar Plexus.
Also, as an added boost, place your hand right on your solar plexus while you breathe deeply , hold the breath for a couple of seconds and release it.

Do this before you go into the club, whil you're in the car, and before you approach a really really hot woman you're really really interested in.

Hit the gym. Every time I walk out of there I feel invincible.
