Seeking Approval and Living According to Principles

In this episode, the host discusses the constant search for approval from others and the balance between seeking approval and living according to one's principles. As social creatures, we are conditioned to seek approval from various sources, such as teachers, family, and colleagues. However, the host argues that if we solely act to gain the approval of others, disregarding our own principles, we are not being true to ourselves. When we live according to our principles with integrity, the opinions of others become irrelevant, and we are free from the need for their approval. An example is given of someone choosing to be an attorney despite disapproval, highlighting the importance of staying true to oneself.
