In this world we live in, we seem to pay attention to the loudest voices and feel a need to seek external validation for the life we are living, often presenting the top 1% of our lives online for people to comment on. It’s almost like privacy and modesty is becoming a rare commodity.
It’s worth exploring the value you place on others opinions when going about your daily life and pursuing goals important to you. Think about the degree of influence other people’s reactions and responses has on your self-esteem and self-worth, and explore how you can balance that out by learning how to validate yourself.
Take a moment to ask yourself:
- What if you could experience a greater level of happiness by not seeking external validation for your life choices and experiences?
- How could you quietly pursue your life ambitions?
- What do you gain by seeking and obtaining confirmation from others that your goals are worth pursuing?
