To think that the most insecure people are the ones who constantly brag about how confident they are?

If you were truly secure, you wouldn’t need to announce it every five minutes.

Yeah and that's true of most things tbh - protesting too much

Fake it till you make it.

I don’t know anyone who brags about how confident they are. I know people who are confident and people who are not.

Do you mean people who exude confidence? I don’t think that’s bragging really it’s just who they are?

Unless as @TheDandyLion says you mean people who fake confidence? I don’t really have a problem with that: you can’t achieve anything without trying.

TBH I think we could do with more confidence, not less… Anyone who has overcome a natural lack of confidence needs praise not criticism.
