Summary

Start Your Transformation Now Ok, so last week we started this topic and I asked you to do an exercise for an entire week to see how often you did or didn’t do what others wanted of you just to please them. What did you discover about yourself? If you’re like most people you found that you do a whole lot of what you don’t want in an effort to please other people and keep them happy. In this episode, I want to share seven points to consider so you can stop caring about what others think and how you can stop giving your power away: 1. What meaning are you putting on people liking and approving of you? Does it validate you? Do you feel higher self-worth? 2. Just be you. Some people won’t like you but when you’re you, those who like your values, vibes, and thoughts will gravitate towards you. 3. Do not take people’s thoughts about you personally? People do not like you or not like you because of you, they like you or don’t because of their interpretations of who they think you are and the relevance of that to their own value systems. 4. Self-Acceptance. Just accept who you are. Some will love you, some will reject you…that’s a way of life. You cannot grow in life until you accept yourself. 5. Your life is not a popularity contest. What do you want to do in the world? Many times it’s the crazy people who are not liked and they do the most in the world. 6. Are you the problem? Take some life inventory. Maybe when you’re repelling people it’s “not them,” maybe it’s you exhibiting some undesirable social characteristic and some people don’t want to be around it. 7. And finally, stop caring what others think or do not think of you. You cannot control that. Some will like you, some will not…so what! Transformational Takeaway: You give your power away when you live your life by what others think you should and should not do… Mentioned Resources: Episode 19: Why People Who Trigger You Are Your Greatest Blessing Let's Connect:  Instagram Facebook YouTube LinkedIn  LIKED THE EPISODE?
