Insecurity Insight

The reason we struggle with insecurity is because we compare our behind-the-scenes to everyone else’s highlight reel.”-Steve Furtick


This seriously made everything so clear to me about insecurity.  We might see other people and how great and happy they are but we really don't know what they are facing themselves.  They are probably facing the exact same insecurities that we ourselves do!

  1. I saw this quote and thought the exact same thing. I realized that 9 times out of 10 if I'm feeling insecure its because I'm looking at myself right out of bed with messy hair in sweat pants and a giant t-short and comparing it to the way some beautiful girl was dressed yeasterday at school.

  2. Right?! I mean don't get me wrong, we look damn fine in our sweats and messy hair though! :)

  3. This is so true! And to make it even worse, the behind-the-scenes features commentary from the voice inside your head that hates you. Like, "Ugh, my hair looks horrible today, look at that other girl with the perfect hair," et cetera. I've heard that 9 out of 10 of our thoughts are negative-- I don't know if it's true, but if it is it probably causes a lot of insecurity!
