Insecurity is a sign you don’t know what you’re doing. That’s all.

If you are thinking of “taking a leap of faith” against your better judgment, or trying to talk yourself into putting all of your eggs into one basket or, I don’t know, jumping into a scary situation while feeling insecure, don’t. If your reasoning is that “others are doing it successfully, and it has paid off” it’s not the same as closing your eyes and jumping. Insecurity means that something is off; either you do not trust yourself, others, or your level of knowledge, and that’s all good information.

Let me explain it this way: I am currently spending money I shouldn’t really invest in an insecure project that *I just know* will work out. I don’t feel worried, I’m not scared, and I still don’t know if it’s going to work, but even if it won’t, my investment is something I can afford to lose. It’ll be annoying, and all that, but it won’t kill me or put me in debt. I do not believe in taking unnecessary risks, and I would never suggest “just do it” to someone who fears how it’s going to go.

Having said that, you may have a clear feeling that your soulmates are playing that trust game, where you have to fall backward and trust that your soulmates are going to catch you. Go by your gut; do you trust them? Do you trust yourself? Do you trust their idea of a good outcome is the same as yours? Are there any individuals you specifically don’t trust who need to get out of the trust circle before you move a muscle? Is the risk worth taking?

Ask yourself some good questions and also this: What is stopping you? What, in your gut, is telling you: “not a good idea.”
