We have been taught, explicitly or implicitly, to worry about what others think of us, how they see us and what impressions we might leave on them. And to a point, it is certainly important to take the consideration of others and to value their opinion.

However, it is very easy to fall into the trap and start giving more importance to what others think of us, rather than what we think of ourselves.

If this happens, then our lives have become an eternal race of seeking others’ approval, praise and encouragement.

In other words, we have lost our freedom!

But there is a way to change that.

Remember the following:

– What others think of you does not change anything in your life.

– What you think of yourself impacts everything in your life.
