“A truly strong person does not need the approval of others any more than a lion needs the approval of sheep.” ~ Vernon Howard.
Approval seeking behavior is a big part of society, and something that you should not want to be a part of. Constantly trying to please everyone, or seeking everyone's approval is a pointless en devour, it's like when a dog chases it's tail, you will never be satisfied and no matter what you do you will not be liked by everyone. In fact you will live a much happier life without their approval! It is a much happier life living how you want to, and doing what you want to do, It doesn't make sense to live how someone else wants you to live just to please them, is that really true happiness? You can do everything in your power to change what people think about you, but the truth is you just can't control what others think of you, don't waste your energy trying to please everyone. When you start trying to seek others approval it takes away your freedom, and you can lose who you really are. You give them control over your life. That's not how you want to live is it? Stop seeking others approval, the only person you need approval from is yourSELF!
