The Social Self: Seeking Approval and Worrying about Opinions<br /><br />We are social creatures and we are seeing ourselves through other people's eyes. Being accepted by our social group increases our chances of survival.<br /><br />However, worrying about other people's opinions is irrelevant because:<br />👉We don't know what others would think unless we ask them, and even then, we cannot be sure they would speak their mind<br />👉There will always be a critic, we cannot please everyone.<br />👉We may have low self-esteem, so it would be better to invest in ourselves to stop worrying what others may think of us<br />👉Which people do you take into account when seeking approval: those from our close circle or those we do not even know?<br /><br />Facebook: <a href="https://www.facebook.com/walkaboutwithaneta" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">https://www.facebook.com/walkaboutwithaneta</a><br />YouTube: <a href="https://www.youtube.com/channel/UClrMNXufICR5IGS5_BYTA5w" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">https://www.youtube.com/channel/UClrMNXufICR5IGS5_BYTA5w</a><br />Odysee: <a href="https://odysee.com/@A_Walkabout_with_Aneta" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">https://odysee.com/@A_Walkabout_with_Aneta</a><br />Bitchute: <a href="https://www.bitchute.com/channel/a_walkabout_with_aneta" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">https://www.bitchute.com/channel/a_walkabout_with_aneta</a><br /><br />If you would like to support my channel, you can send your gifts to:<br />Paypal: <a href="https://www.paypal.me/awalkaboutwithaneta" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">https://www.paypal.me/awalkaboutwithaneta</a><br />(ref: Gift)<br />Thank you:)
