WHO CARES WHAT THEY THINK? I used to. I REALLY used to. I used to worry myself to death making sure that each and every person I came into contact with thought I was perfect, had it all together, and never messed up. I used to base my entire day around how people would perceive me; chose the words carefully to make sure I would appear smart, thoughtful and informed; even fought tooth and nail to get my point across in an argument to make SURE the other person would leave thinking I was a good person. How EXHAUSTING. My biggest lesson in life over the past year has been to release the need to please- and it’s been amazing, and a brutally HARD process. Bottom line is no matter what we do in life and how we act, we’re always going to offend SOMEONE. We’re never going to make everyone happy, and the tireless journey of trying is pointless, because then you never get to play the game of life the way YOU want to play it. Bottom line: this is YOUR life. If you concern yourself with pleasing the masses you WILL get a cookie cutter version of life that is never truly YOU. People will hate, people will talk, people will try and push your buttons and bring you down….keep going. Be so sure in who you are and what you’re creating in the world that the sneers and judgements from others become just another a tell tale sign that you’re moving forward. You know you’re disrupting the status quo when people start to get uncomfortable. Welcome it in.
