  • It’s generally a good idea to care about other people’s opinions to some degree, as they could contain some worthwhile insight. But focusing on them too much to the point that we spend hours and hours dwelling on what people might think can leave us in agony. It’s not only potentially harmful but also unnecessary. This video explains why based on several concepts from psychology and philosophy. Hence, 7 reasons not to worry about what others think.

      That's absolutely right.
      I'm straight forward to
      People yes and no
      Black and white.
      Don't care if people like me
      Or hate me. I was talking to
      A hippie chick. Homosexaul
      Was brought up. She was
      Camp. So I said to her. To
      Each there own. She raved
      On about iher sex. So again
      I REPEAT the same to each
      There own as long as you
      Don't shove it down my
      Neck. Other people were there
      Too. No one said a thing.
      And she left. And I thought
      She had to except it or
      Didn't. But I wasn't rude
      To her. To each there own.
      And go live your life.

In the current time, society are too broken and the tecnology and social media had isolated great amounts of people, and many of them are still trying to get aproval for complete strangers. Many people are alone enough they have nothing to prove to anybody, but they still trying to.

    • @clr977
      @clr977 Před 2 lety +31

      Agreed, applied to the global populace. But experience proves that energy is gained FROM people, not from your own existence but from it interacting with others. This statement is like a beautiful oxymoron, valuable when needed, but toxic when overused, like everything else. Some people want to be Nietzsche, yet forget he died a somewhat dark death. Kind of a silly trade honestly, people like this set the foundation for us to do better, not the same. I noticed the past few years people becoming, almost addicted to influence of past minds. I’m sure they wouldn’t want that, they’d want us to combine their “new” views at the time with the new of today and the facts of the past before either. Really rational in my opinion. Most Psych majors I have met in my life are very bland and don’t seem to enjoy reality, according to their own words at times. This baffles me, they say the more intelligent you become the more sad you can be, but at the end of the day it is your choice. None of this applies to anyone that do not wish it to. Peace to all and strength through hard times, be stoic, yet be uncontrollably maniacally joyful in the moment.🙏🏽

      @@clr977 Well, look at it this way. You can't control how others perceive you unless you're actually behaving like a dick to their face. Second, you don't owe anything to anyone just like the world does not owe you anything. So just stay on your own path and forget everybody else. What you choose to do with your life is none of your buisness.
      The only thing that matters is what YOU want to do, not what everybody else is doing. Because if you get influenced too much by what everybody else is doing, you're going to find yourself in a maze you can't get out of. You'll lose a sense of who you truly are and what truly matters to you. You know this to be true if you look deep within yourself. You don't want to do what everybody else is doing and you don't want to be a steretotypical man.
      You have something deeper inside you that you want to show the world. And only those with great courage and fearlessness do just that. When you act with love and abudance in life, you always win no matter what. How you want to be remembered in life is your choice, and your choice only. Make your legacy worthwhile because you only get one chance.

      A quote I definitely needed to see. Thank you for posting, and thank you for those that up voted it too. While I've been dealing with stuff like this my whole life (like practically everyone), and I've been successful & being true to myself, I've felt myself faltering in my resolve which has made me a tad depressed the past few days. Feels like everything around you is trying to change you in some way. Sometimes the urge to just fit in is so great because being part of the collective is easier than standing alone. However when you realize that those in the collective will never truly accept you because of who you really are you begin to realize how alone you really are. That's something I'm trying to come to terms with. Sorry for the incoherent rant. Needed to get it out of my system.

    The best way to overcome the fear of what others think of you is realizing that you don't even control what you think, how can you possibly control what others think about you when you can't even control your own thoughts and feelings. After I realized that I literally spend zero time worrying about this. Thoughts about others will arise, observe them and move on that's all you can do. You can't stop them from coming because you don't control your thoughts trying to will just create fustration.

    It’s easy to say “don’t care what other people think” but it’s a difficult balance, because on some level it benefits us to care, being as our world is formed by those around us and they directly impact our life. I think it’s more beneficial to care less about the majority and more about the opinion of those you deem worthy.

    Thank you for this, it is not new to me, but it is a perfectly timed reminder. I have been causing myself pain, concerning myself with the opinion and views of others, that I have no control over. 🙏

    This is something I really needed to hear and to remind myself. It makes more sense that when people online say their opinions about you they often may be projecting their insecurities onto you. But when they see you don't live up to their expectations it's a crime. Like why would you want to be a copy and paste of something you are not. I'd rather do what I like than be a mindless sheep following the crowd. It really makes you think that all these persona's on social media is not the final result of that person. We have many faces we wear as humans. The Japanese have a saying you have three faces. The first , you show to the world. The second , you show to your close friends, and your family. The third you show to no one

    Giving away power is tantamount to hobbling your own sense of agency for yourself, essentially imprisoning yourself in your own worry and thoughts over that which you have NO CONTROL. Good video!

    I have dealt with different forms of judgements and prejudices throughout my life up to this day. I am now in the latter half of my life and single. I pursue what enriches my soul regardless of what others think. I completely agree with Nietche's philosophy of the master and servant dichotomy. I have transcended that dynamic since childhood. There is a small part of me that is uncomfortable, sad, and lonely about that, but there is a much greater part of me that is strong, happy, and free because of that.

    I've tried many times and I've honestly came to the conclusion that you are who you are. You can't change your personality, there's much worse things than caring what people think anyway.

    Living a life thinking about what others will think of me is really not living. It's like dying. Moreover, what others will think of me is not my responsibility. It's totally theirs. At the end of the day, why I am even supposed to care.

    As I get older the less I think about other peoples judgements/opinions. Now that I’m 60, I just don’t give a damn. If you are a negative person feel free to give your precious time to someone else. I’m not interested and enjoy my own company. Little mind means little.

    I appreciate your video. it helped me regain my confidence as someone who is occasionally insecure. I am a non native speaker of English and trying to do an English degree with foundation year in the UK is embarrassing (or should I say planning to do one, currently in hs). But if you love something you should strive for it regardless of what others think.

    As I will graduate in a few days from highschool, I decided to do maths afterwards. I felt so stressed about my math exam bc I thought 'I need to do very well or they will all think I'm a failure'
    But at the same time I knew it was screwed up to think like that bc what I thinnk about myself is more important. This video proved it to me once again and I am less stressed about my grades atm ^^ Thank you!

    You talked about some very important aspects. I often found myself wondering about these things and still trying to stay true to myself but there was still worry for some reason. However, I feel at peace of mind now and closer to myself. Things are clearer to me now. From now on, I will do my best to be my best self especially when I understand I am not doing anything wrong by just being myself. It's time to live my TRUE life.
