Did you offend someone?
Are they going to think poorly of you?
Some amount of worry in this regard can keep you from hurting people you care about.
Furthermore, the habit can leave us feeling insecure too.
People are going to think certain things about you whether you like it or not.
it’s possible for you to never yo everyone, nor should you try.
It is also a healthy way to learn self-acceptance.
This can be incredibly liberating.
Begin by telling yourself that you might be wrong in assuming that people are very interested in you.
If think this way, you might have what the professionals call “the spotlight effect.”
You may also want to consider widening your social circle to include more empowering people in it.
Do the same if you find yourself criticizing someone else.
The journey of self-acceptance is a long one and it’s important to be kind to yourself through it.
Remind yourself that others are going through similar journeys as well.
