We believe we know how other think about us and it impacts how we think about ourselves, but actually we should not be giving the thoughts of others, or the thoughts we have about others thoughts power over our minds and lives!
We make assumptions of how or what people will think about us, and it makes us feel self-conscience, we have self-doubt, we can feel rejection before we even give someone a chance. We can actually even think the opposite, that everyone loves us, loves things we do b/c they have never voiced their thoughts to us and so we build those relationships on a lack of trust and understanding. We internalize negative thoughts and feeling and start to feel shameful that we did or said something; feel fear of rejection that can cause us to do or say things we do not really want or believe in; dread being around others because we believe we know for sure they think poorly of us, don't want to be with us, or have an alterative motive.
We think we know what other's think about and it has a negative impact on us, but caring about what others think about us is limiting who we are and who we can be. Stop giving perceived thoughts from others power over who you are and what you can do!
Let's work to not give power outside of being responsible for our own thoughts and not the thoughts of others.
Let's continue to work those small actionable steps to build positive thoughts in our own mind.
Listen to the full episode for more, and some takeaways to help you not give away your power to other's thoughts.
