The Quest for Approval

One of the primary quests nice people undertake is the quest to be liked by everyone. It's a never-ending journey, full of strenuous effort and constant anxiety. You're driven by an emotional compulsion to be liked by your friends, colleagues, boss, and even strangers. This quest is exhausting and often leaves you feeling unfulfilled and disconnected from your true self.

"The quest to be liked by everyone is a never-ending journey, full of strenuous effort and constant anxiety."

Dr. Aziz explains that this quest is not who you are—it's just a pattern you're running. You might have run this pattern for so long that it feels ingrained in your DNA, but it's not, and you can change. The way to change is to gain clarity and make different choices, followed by taking consistent and considerable action.

The Quest to Be Seen Fully

Another quest that nice people often find themselves on is the quest to be seen fully or positively. This is about over-explaining your actions and motives to ensure that others see you in a certain light. You might feel compelled to thoroughly explain why you're saying no to something or why you behaved in a certain way. This need to be seen accurately can lead to endless explanations and an inability to handle being misperceived.

"The need to be seen accurately can lead to endless explanations and an inability to handle being misperceived."

This quest can be just as exhausting as the quest for approval. You're constantly trying to manage others' perceptions of you, and when someone misperceives you, it can feel like a personal attack. But Dr. Aziz highlights that this too is a pattern that you can break free from.

The Cost of These Quests

These endless quests take a toll on your well-being. They prevent you from living authentically and fully. You might avoid putting yourself out there, sharing your ideas, or taking bold steps in your life because of the fear of being judged or misperceived. This self-imposed limitation keeps you stuck in a cycle of people-pleasing and social anxiety.

Breaking Free from the Endless Quests

Dr. Aziz emphasizes that these patterns are not your identity—they are just habits that you can change. The first step is to recognize the quests you're on and understand that you don't need to be liked or seen accurately by everyone. You can start to release these burdens by taking small, courageous actions that align with your true self.

Action Step: Inventory Your Quests

Your action step for today is to take an honest inventory of your life. Identify where you've been chasing someone's approval or needing to be seen in a certain way. Find one area where this pattern shows up and practice letting go. Remind yourself, "I don't need anything from this person." Breathe deeply and release the need for approval or accurate perception.

"I don't need anything from this person."

An Inspiring Message of Hope

You have the power to break free from these endless quests and live a life of authenticity and boldness. It starts with small, consistent actions and a commitment to changing the patterns that no longer serve you. Remember, you are not defined by your quest for approval or accurate perception. You are capable of living a fulfilling, confident life.
