Insecurity

Dependence on insecurity

Nature

Insecurity is a feeling of unprotectedness and helplessness against manifold anxieties arising from an all-encompassing uncertainty about one's self.

Insecurity is largely fostered by unpredictable fluctuations in which there is no cohesion. The resultant insecurities may be personal (insecurity regarding one's goals and ideals, one's abilities, one's relation to others, and the attitude one should take toward them) or societal (disintegration of society's values and mores, societal responsibilities, and societal cohesiveness).

Claim

People's productivity is usually strongly influenced by the insecurity and unpredictability of their environment. Insecurity is thus exacerbated by social strife within countries and by political and military pressures or aggression of external origin.

Counter-claim

Insecurity is often overstated and used as an excuse for personal shortcomings. Many individuals focus excessively on their fears and doubts, neglecting the power of resilience and self-improvement. Instead of wallowing in insecurity, people should embrace challenges and learn from failures. Life is inherently uncertain, and rather than fixating on insecurities, we should cultivate confidence and adaptability. Ultimately, insecurity is a minor hurdle that can be overcome with determination and a proactive mindset.
