How To Stop Worrying About What People Think

in codependence •  7 years ago 

If you keep holding yourself back and worrying about what other people think of you, then this is for you…

Although people may talk or make comments, really nobody is actually thinking of you that much. People are more concerned about themselves than they are about you. Everyone is just a 1-second thought in someone’s head.

Its apart of life that we care what people think, but when you start holding yourself back:

Know that you are here for a bigger reason.

You aren’t here to please everyone.

If you are, that’s why you are caring so much.

People are entitled to their own voice and opinions, but their opinion is theirs and their truth. It doesn’t mean it the truth.

Their opinions are how they see the world, it has nothing to do with you. Everyone is going through their own life experience.

“What people think about you is none of your business.”

It’s really not about what they think, it’s about how you are going to let it control your actions.You can’t control how others see you – but you can control how you see yourself. When someone tells you, you can’t – that’s their limitation on yours.

No one should have power over your internal condition and if someone says something to you that affects you, it could be a signal or a blessing in disguise to inspire you to move forward.

It’s not what happens to us but our response to what happens to us that hurts us.

Choose to take your power back no one can hurt you without your mental consent.

“We all spend our 20s and 30s trying so hard to be perfect because we are so worried about what people think. When we get to our 40s and 50s we finally start to be free because we decide that we don’t give a damn what anyone thinks. But you won’t be free until you reach your 60s when you realize the truth – nobody was thinking about you anyhow.” – Elizabeth Gilbert

And it’s true. You can worry about what’s people think and whether people like you but really does anyone really care?
