It is pointless and harmful to you. As long as you seek approval from others, you cannot live by your own interests. You make it difficult for yourself to make a decision. They do not live your life, therefore they will not bring you anything useful. You become a puppet in the hands of others, because you simply give up power over your life to outsiders!
Here are the reasons to stop seeking approval from others today.
Your life is only in your hands
Listen to your heart, your desires and your needs. Strangers are not responsible for your life, only you do it. You have the power to carry out your life plans.
Only you are responsible for your happiness
Yes, other people can make your life happier, but your happiness should not depend on their opinion. You do not need to look for happiness in other people, most likely they will lead you to disappointment, they have their own plans, but they are not able to accept yours.
You spend a lot of time seeking approval from others.
While you seek approval from others, you are wasting your precious time. You could have done so many good things instead, think about it! By the way, most people will not understand you and will not be able to accept you as you are. Support yourself instead of relying on the support of others.
You lose your freedom trying to please everyone
That's when you start relying on yourself then you will find freedom. You must make all your decisions in life on your own. And believe me, you can turn your plan into action without getting approval from the outside. You are free in your decisions and in your actions.
You can't please everyone
No matter how hard you try, there will be someone who is not happy with you. Over time, you still realize that you were doing useless. It will not be possible to please everyone.
You can get to know yourself much better
Yes, as soon as you stop dancing to someone else's tune, you will immediately realize that you can do much more, can do more, can do a lot. You will get to know yourself much better. You will understand what you really want from life and what you don't. Listen to yourself, not to those who are trying to control you.
You are wasting your energy
As long as you spray on others, seeking their approval, pleasing them, trying to please them, your energy dries up. Give up other people's opinions and approval, you do not need many of the actions that you are now doing in vain.
Can't you hear your heart call
Of course, because you always do so that you are praised, appreciated, approved of your step. And you completely stop hearing what your heart is telling you. And if you do not follow the call of your heart, then throughout your life you will be tormented by the question: why did my life turn out this way and not otherwise?
Seeking approval breeds fears
You seek approval from others, so you always think before you take an action, and what others will say. And you start to be afraid. Suddenly you do something or say something wrong. These fears will grow and grow, they will hold you back, stop you. You will exist for someone else, not for yourself.
Start living differently from tomorrow. If you love yourself, then you should not give up the opportunity to make your own decisions. Do not seek approval from others, do not waste time, do not try to please everyone, live your mind, needs and desires!
