Social Breakthrough!!!

Do you always find yourself constantly second guessing yourself in anything that you decide to do? ; will my friends like me if they saw me doing this, How or what will they think of me if I showed up to the hang out looking like this…I don’t feel like doing engineering but at the same time, I don’t want to disappoint my parents, …All these sound exhausting, just trying to please other people.

“Care about what other people think and you will always be their prisoner.” – Lao Tzu

This kind of excessive worrying can have a negative effect on your life. It will interfere with your ability to feel at ease with yourself and around others.

Do not let it prevent you from living your life to the fullest potential. What we need to realize is that human beings are dynamic and that they constantly change their attitudes and beliefs about something or someone. Therefore, having a fellow human being as your anchor in life is a NO NO. The only anchor you need in your life and that will always give you peace of mind and a sense of control is YOUR LIFE PRINCIPLES. Work on your principles and make that paradigm shift today.

Only YOU know what works best for you and what doesn’t!

Here are some reasons you shouldn’t care about what others think of you, according to lifehack.org.

1.       It’s not their Life, So It’s none of Their Business-

As straight forward as it may sound, it is totally true.

2.       They don’t know what’s best for you-

Only you know what works and what doesn’t to you. People are different.

3.       What’s right for someone else may be completely wrong for you-

From the fact that people are different; one man’s meat is another man’s poison.

4.       You are the one stuck with the end results-

At the end of the day; you are the one who truly feels the full impact of the consequences of your decisions.

5.       Life is simply too short-

With that in mind, isn’t it better to live your life to the fullest without any care of what others think about you? The ultimate goal in life is to be happy. Go ahead and do what makes you happy. Who cares what others think. It’s your life, a gift from God to you.

6.       Others don’t care as much as you think-

You may think that people are constantly looking and judging your actions. Truth is, they are busy worrying about their own problems such that they do not even notice you are constantly worrying yourself about. We need to realize that in life, people are always performing roles and wearing masks depending on the roles being performed. They have other pressing issues to constantly worry about. As human beings, no one is perfect. That should help you reduce the tension.

7.       The Hard truth; It’s impossible to please everybody-

 As we had established earlier, people are different. We all have different tastes and different needs. It therefore means that it is very difficult to satisfy each individual’s needs to the max. Stop working so hard to please your fellow human beings with dynamic and unique needs. Cut yourself some slack.
