The Approval Addiction

Self worth is something you have to own it to feel it. Sure, you can feel good when you receive approval but on the other end of the scale you will feel terrible when you are disapproved of.

Judging yourself, your achievements and your failures on what someone else says will never allow you to be in control of your life, you constantly run the risk of emotional deflation at any moment.

You have to feel your own worth in order to enjoy it. People can make you happy, sad, angry, feel stupid. You also can make yourself feel like this.

Learn to be happy inside so that when life throws you a curve ball you won't be totally thrown off. People are HUMAN - products of an environment that can be unfair & unjust, you don't know what people have gone through and why they behave the way they do, but you do know what you have gone through and why you behave the way that you do.

Take a look inside and decide to feel beautiful and successful, then when a mistake that you inevitably will make (as everyone will) won't be the end of the world.
