You know what? We’re always caught up wondering what others think of us. Oh, the phrasing! Maybe they think we’re irresponsible? Silly? Weird? Illogical?
But guess what?
That’s just us thinking that about ourselves.
In reality, nobody thinks about us. At all. Because — thank you, Captain — everyone’s just thinking about themselves. And you know what they’re thinking? “What do other people think of me?”
So, it turns out, nobody’s really thinking about anyone. Ta-da! And you know what? That’s not offensive. On the contrary, it’s fantastic news! Because:
-Now we can think about ourselves guilt-free, not others.
-We can do anything under the sun!
-We can become the people we were meant to be. Public opinion is great for restraint, but once you feel free…
-Oh yes, freedom really changes people.
Not caring what others think of us means becoming free.
Live where you like. Wear what you love, not what you’re advised. Eat what you want, even if it’s not always healthy. Be nobody and be everybody at once. No one cares!
Nobody cares whether you’re unhappy or happy. Bold or self-conscious. Creative or ordinary. We get to choose. No one cares!
We only realized this recently. After embarking on a big journey around the world and starting our blog. We were constantly worried about what others would think of us. And you know what we found out? No one cares!
And you know what that means…
Do what you want! Be yourself. Think more often about yourself, and not about other people. And focus on what’s inside, not outside of you. And be happy.
okay?
