Self-acceptance

“What you think of yourself is much more important than what people think of you.”— Seneca

Sometimes we keep ourselves from making progress, because we’re so preoccupied about how people may think of us. What’s interesting is that many of us think about what others think of us because we haven’t really accepted our own foibles and flaws. We all come from different shapes and sizes. We all come from different colors, different ages. When we accept ourselves, we don’t feel the need to wonder how others think of us. We just won’t care. What we think of ourselves is really a reflection what we think others think of us. We need to come to terms about how we see ourselves and give others a chance to see us for what we really are and about. We should allow others to earn the right to accept us as we are.

Life is Too Short Quotes

“Life is too short to waste time waiting for other people’s approval on how you live it.”— Steve Maraboli

If we spend our time worrying about what other people think, we will never do what interests us. Yes we have relationships with others, but we also have a relationship with ourselves. We don’t have to have someone’s approval when we have ourselves to approve.  We don’t need our approval of what we’re doing validated by someone else’s approval. We must allow ourselves to do what interests us without ever having to second-guess ourselves.  If we do what interests us and, we enjoy doing it, then our approval to ourselves is validated and we would do more of what we like. This is how we get stronger and freer to be ourselves as individuals. We only have one life to live so let us take pleasure in the things that interest us.
