Why do you care about the opinion of others?

Mindset, Mood & Movement: Performance, Purpose & Peace

Worrying about the opinion of others can be a massive problem. It can take a lot of energy and can be draining.

We are social species and it does matter how we are in our trusted group BUT the incessant worrying can be a maladaptive response that can end putting more distance between us and others if not understood and dealt with properly.

Marcus Aurelius, the Roman emperor and philosopher said, "we all love ourselves more than other people, but care more about their opinion than our own"

I talk about how shame can be an underlying feeling that may be connected to this.

Can we move from Pariah to an Outlier? How do we tap into that authentic voice within to guide us?

4 Main Insights.

1. How often do you think spending about other people? We spend most of out time thinking about ourselves.
2. Instinctual responses are often out of alignment with how we are living today. Expressing yourself to others is liberating.
3. Avoid being part of the problem- Avoid judging; self, others. Change your perception of judgement being everywhere.
4. What is your body response? If you connect with the sensations that arise, you notice... allow to be without trying to change it. Simply notice and it will shift.
