It’s simply impossible to think that you will please everyone and you will never irritate anyone in your life. You can’t even please yourself more than half the time.
When do we encounter this 🥵 FEAR!!
FEAR stands for- False Evidence Appearing Real.
FEAR is an illusion. That you’re going to experience more challenge than support, more pain than pleasure, or more loss than gain in some time in the future.😱
🔸We hold ourselves back from expressing our true selves or the things we want or love doing most, due to the fear of what others would think about us or the fear of facing rejection.😰
🔹We block ourselves from expressing our true authentic selves and stop ourselves from believing in our own vision. We instead start limiting our own dreams to fit into others’ vision and values, so that we are appreciated.
👉But in reality, it leaves us feeling more dissatisfied 😭 as it’s difficult to please everyone.
If there is a choice between annoying others 😡 or feeling miserable myself😭, I would choose to have the whole world against me. As I would rather stay true to myself and my 💫soul.
A perfect balance ⚖️ of rejection and acceptance will exist no matter in what stage of life you are in. When we acknowledge that rejection is only half of the reality and acceptance is the other half, we free ourselves from overreacting whenever we perceive some form of rejection.
