totally. He tells Kara that he could use military advice because he's fighting a war with tactics he got from movies! He doesn't know what he's doing half the time, he's making it up as he goes, but hell, isn't that the very essence of self-confidence? you have no clue what you're doing but you figure you'll find a way to do it anyway? I dunno, it just seems like there's no way he could do things like walk away from the Circle and from Kara if he needed other people's approval.
The OP pointed out that he says in the Plan that the only reason he came back was because he didn't want Jean/theothers to think he was a coward. but I don't think that's a deep-seated insecurity, so much as being deeply ashamed of the impulse to run away and abandon them all.
