Are Other People's Opinions Stopping You ?

, are you dealing with the fear of what people will say?



Is this stopping you from being who you want to be, stopping you from showing up the way you want to show up ?


May be this fear has caused you to put your goals and dreams in closed closets. The fear that has made your dreams remain just that: dreams.



The truth you need to realize today is that, people have not started talking about other people now. This behavior is as old as the beginning of time.


Even the people who have made it big, the people we look up to had to conquer and overcome this.


Everyone go through this phase wondering if they are being too much in the eyes of others but the difference is how you deal with it. I've said it before that you feel the fear and do it anyway. The only way to conquer fear is by facing it.



The first thing you need to ask yourself is; What's the worst thing these people will say about you?

After introspection, you may realize you are even having a hard time coming up with answers.


And if you do come up with something, is it true? The good thing is you know yourself better and are in a position to separate facts from opinions.



Why are people's opinions so important to you ?

May be they are people who don't know you, who don't know where you are coming from or what you've been through. Someone who has no idea where you are going how do you let such a person govern your actions or lack of them thereof.


They say something about you and you want to stop your life? Don't let that be you siz.



Ask yourself, what is it that you want to start but are scared of what people will say?


Then ask the above questions .



Sometimes people have their lives going, they even don't care much about us but we put that in our own minds stopping us from making that bold move. We have a tendency of elevating our importance in other people's lives which ends up working against us.



Instead of worrying about what people will think and say about you, worry about how you think about yourself, what you say about yourself and who you think you are. This is what's most important.



Also something to note is that, no one who has it going for them will come to your space and start calling you names or downgrading you. Those who do, it's always a reflection of where they are in life.



You may have had a past yes, but you are a new version now and those who keep reminding you or want you to remain your past version deserves to remain in the past or upgrade and move forward with you. The choice is yours.





Bottom line, stand in your truth. Let the person you want to become guide you forward.




If this is something that is derailing you, don't be afraid to ask for help to step into the high quality woman you desire to become. To work with me, send me an email and let's discover what that could look like.




Best Regards
