I Am Terrified By New Information!
Many people become immediately defensive when they feel as if they have been threatened in some way. I've observed that this particularly occurs when the person is being taught something that they did not know. --One option to improve upon such insecurity is to embrace the information, without attaching negative emotions when receiving.
When one exposes one's self to experiences (broadening their perspective) they minimize the need for the ego to be threatened. Self-affirmations are helpful as well.
The purpose of affirmation is to place a command from the conscious mind to the subconscious mind. The subconscious mind has this ability, to accept it as true, and will do whatever it takes to turn it into reality. The affirmation passes a message to the subconscious mind, and allows it to believe the message is true.
So How Do Affirmations Work?
1. The affirmation must be believable to the subconscious mind
2. The subconscious mind seeks for proof
3. The affirmation must trigger feeling, then action.

Ultimately, more confidence is gained, with a reduction of feelings of inferiority, insecurity, and a need to become defensive.
