Don’t obsess over what other people think about you.  Become obsessive over what you think about yourself.  Instead of spending your time and energy trying to get the approval of other people, you need to take that same time and energy and spend it on trying to earn your own self approval.  It is time for you to stop living for other people and start living for yourself.  You can do a lot more from others if you become the best version of yourself possible.  But the only way for you to become the best version of you is by focusing on yourself, your goals, and your purpose.

By becoming the best version of you, you’re able to contribute more to society, more to the world.  You are able to approach life from a state of abundance rather than from a state of lack.  You owe it to the universe, and the rest of us, to develop yourself fully in order to bring the most to the universe that you possibly can bring.
