Are you looking for advice on how to stop caring what people think of you or how to be confident? Our desire to impress others has been distorted by social media. Social media has set wildly photoshopped expectations of who or what we should be. Our lives have been commodified and assigned values through likes, share, or retweets, so we live with the constant pressure of what will they think of me. As a result, our desire for validation and our sensitivity to criticism increased. Granted, our insecurities are also formed due to trauma suffered in early childhood or negligent or abusive parents.

But, what if you could stop caring about what others think? What would happen then? The possibilities are endless, but I am willing to bet that you would feel a lot lighter and happier. So, here are some ways to stop caring about what others think of you.

A wise man once said, “If you hold yourself to a standard of perfection, you’ll always be a failure.”

“Accept that not everyone will like you.”

This was a BIG one for me as I struggled to accept my flaws, but I eventually learned from people that I don’t need to prove anything to anyone. Now at almost 28, I don’t give a rat’s ass who doesn’t like me.

I take the attitude of "If they're not paying my bills, why should I care what they think?"

These words have helped me deal with my thoughts!
1) What others think of you is NONE of your business!
2) What others say about you says more about them, than you!

I saw a post that said “Stop trying to make everyone like you. YOU don’t even like everyone” and that changed my life

Ha professional overthinker here. You know that feeling when you are like 'I'm so happy rn there's nothing that could ruin it' then your brain is like 'Um yeah that's nice but remember that one time you did that cringy thing? Everyone probably remembers that even though it was like 8 years ago' yeah

I’ve always been insecure because I care tooo much about other people’s opinions of me. I literally overthink so much when instances like people saying i laugh too much come, and end up feeling super dumb. But this video made me realize that I’m really just against my own mind and it’s stopping me from doing so many things I want to do.

One thing I learned on accepting myself is to not to hold wrongs against urself. Meaning when you look back at something embarrassing you did, instead of looking down on urself, don't hold that wrong against you. We're all human, we make mistakes

I'm currently 45. When I was in my 20s, I had crippling anxiety. I wasn't always this way...I do remember coming into the world a confident person, and having been surrounded solely by narcissists my entire life, they managed to eventually erode my defenses over the years.

Fortunately for me, I've always had a good head on my shoulders, and have been able to counsel myself through EVERYTHING. One of the many upsides of being an INTJ. Though I brought myself to the understanding that I had anxiety because I'd been led to care what people thought of me, it still took some more years to work through the insecurities. Intellectual understanding is one thing, and convincing your body of a truth that's the opposite of what you've been conditioned to believe, is another.

Start w/ the mind, and with persistence and diligence, the body will eventually follow. I've overcome my anxiety, and have grown comfortable in my skin. One of the things to look forward to as you grow older and wiser, as long as you're putting in the self-work.

#1 in this list became one of my mantras to remind myself of how people likely weren't thinking about me, so by conditioning myself not to be egocentric (as society tends to teach us to be), I learned to stop magnifying my perceived flaws. One helpful tip is to remind yourself how SMALL & INSIGNIFICANT you are, to keep things in perspective. I mean this in a HEALTHY way, and how you do this is by examining the scope of your existence, next to nature. We're like tiny ants or microbes in the vast universe. Be in nature, or look at nature, and ask yourself how big your own concerns and anxieties are, in comparison. Puts everything in perspective, right?

In my case, being adopted and not having an adult figure tell me that I am beautiful or reassurance that I should accept my inner & outer beauty. We all have special qualities. Thank you for these videos and I have been sharing them all over. Especially to those that cannot afford mental health care. My dad is a retired psychologist. So since I stepped foot on American soil, age 4, I've always seen a therapist.
