Since we were children, most of us learned that it could be advantageous to make others happy. Most children want the approval of their parents, teachers, and peers. We tend to carry that same tendency into adulthood. While it’s natural to seek the approval of others, sometimes it might not be for the best.
Being a strong and free person includes the ability to move freely through the world without excessive concern about the opinions of others. Think about the people you respect the most. Do they allow the opinions of others to dictate their decision? You can live the same way.
If a change you are trying to make isn’t working, it may be because you are trying to change the wrong thing. You are probably doing the things and creating desires because you think you “should” and not because you really want to. You’re probably doing it because someone else thinks it’s what is best, or in order to please someone. Making decisions based on what others think is giving away your power.
Living on your own terms and understanding your own desires is how you can own your power.
