“Approval is overrated...Approval and disapproval alike satisfy those who deliver it more than those who receive it. I don't care for approval, and I don't mind doing without.”
Decryption of quote
Approval is overrated...
Imagine living your life constantly seeking the approval of others. Always trying to fit into their mold, sacrificing your own authenticity in the process. Is it really worth it? Is it truly fulfilling to live a life based on the expectations of others?
Approval and disapproval alike satisfy those who deliver it more than those who receive it.
Those who judge and criticize others often do so to boost their own ego. It gives them a sense of power and control over others. But for the ones on the receiving end, it can be demoralizing and disheartening. Why should we let the opinions of others dictate our worth?
I don't care for approval, and I don't mind doing without.
It takes courage to break free from the need for approval. To stand tall in your own truth and values, regardless of what others may think. When you let go of the need for approval, you free yourself from the chains of external validation.
Instead of seeking approval from others, focus on approving of yourself. Accept and love yourself for who you are, flaws and all. When you learn to validate yourself, you no longer rely on others to feel worthy or accepted.
Remember, you are the author of your own story. You have the power to define your worth and live a life that is true to you. So, don't let the need for approval hold you back. Embrace your uniqueness and shine brightly, unapologetically.
