It's ok to feel insecure. It's not fair for others to dictate the person you should become. Free will gives you the chance to make your own decisions and live a productive life. Our personal stories, values or relationships may shape our path in one direction and take another in the need for satisfaction. Sometimes, we must look within ourselves to become stronger when we question our morals.

We should never be judged based on our personality. Nobody fully understands a person's life before being in their place. It's in those moments we must take a step back and cherish the positive things given to us. All people will go through a mountain before reaching the other side. The experiences we have allow us to grow and become better people in society. You've learned from your mistakes and rough times. Living in the moment may be difficult, but it's worth getting to know more about yourself and the reasons for your mannerisms as an adult.

Never sell yourself short. Independence and pride can be difficult for an insecure individual. Being able to value your accomplishments and use them to strengthen yourself is pivotal. We've worked hard to become successful as adults. Take the time to learn new things and feel like nothing is standing in your way for true happiness.

Life is all about moments, good and bad. Even if others might be stopping you from that happiness, make sure to try your best to succeed in other areas of life.
