“What will they think?”
The opinions of other people weigh more heavily on us than we might be willing to admit. The truth is that we spend a lot of time and energy thinking about what we imagine other people might think about us. And I say imagine – what we IMAGINE other people might think of us – because we rarely know what other people are really thinking.
Are other people's opinions – real or imagined – running your life? It’s something a lot of us struggle with. It impacts the decisions we make, it influences how we show up in the world, it often adds to our stress and discontent and is rarely helpful. The truth is that many of us are going through our days, living our lives based not on what is true about ourselves or what WE think about ourselves, but what WE THINK other people’s opinions are about us.
