Stop Seeking Approval
90% of people fail because they care about what 10% of people say about them.
Why do you care? We live in a society that constantly craves approval from others and it quite frankly is the reason we do a lot of the things we do. The reason we buy a certain car, wear a certain logo, date a certain girl and sometimes even take trips is all to win approval of others and it’s because of that craving that much of America is in crushing debt.
I’ll be honest, sometimes I go places or take certain photos cause I know it will get good engagement. Is that bad, not necessarily but I’m trying harder not to let the numbers rule my creativity.
Now there’s definitely cases where you are genuinely passionate and love something regardless, that’s not what I’m talking about. But what if we totally dismissed everyone’s opinions? Not to say you don’t listen, but that you are so focused on where you are going that the noise doesn’t even affect you. Good bad or indifferent people’s opinions don’t affect your performance.
It’s honestly a freeing feeling that allows you to truly be who you are without limitation. To me it’s one of the best feelings in the world and I try everyday to fully manifest it.
What’s something that’s holding you back from your true self right now?
Be blessed and stay stoked😎🤙 •
