I think self-validation and affirmation is more important than trying to convince other people.
Forget what other people think of you, know your own worth. As long as you know you're making steps to better your situation and make things as good as possible for yourself, it's easy to find self-worth. Also it's important to acknowledge that you're human and not perfect. If you are fully aware (but still thinking positively) about things you can improve about yourself, nobody can upset you by pointing it out, because you already know and it's not a shock to you.
In the long term, that will make other people respect you more as well, when they can see you have confidence and self-assurance. People naturally flock to individuals with those qualities.
Is it normal to be mad at someone for pointing out your insecurities?
