APPROVAL SEEKING
Are you the type of person who can't help but seek validation from others? Do you find yourself putting off most important tasks because you're afraid of the potential for criticism or judgement? Whether it's writing a presentation for work, posting on twitter or LinkedIn , or even just putting yourself out there in general, the fear of social rejection can be incredibly powerful and can hold you back from reaching your true potential. We know that when don't receive the approval we seek, we can experience it as a form of social rejection, and rejection activates the same areas of the brain as when you experience physical pain - it hurts! But here's the thing - your value as a person is not defined by what others think of you. You, my friend, are valuable and important, regardless of what anyone else may think or say. So, don't let fear hold you back any longer. I want you to remind yourself of your inherent worth and go after what you truly want in your life. Don't let the fear of rejection prevent you from achieving your goals and living your best life. P.S- If you want to break free from the need for validation, here's a tip : start serving others. It's one of the most effective ways to silence the ego and regain a sense of worth and dignity. Plus, it creates a chain reaction of positivity. Also, you can say daily positive affirmations to remind yourself of your worth. Say things like ''I have value. I am worthy. I offer great things to the world'' So what about you..do you 'care' what others think of you?
