Seeking Approval and Authenticity
When trying to win the approval of others, we often compromise our values and act in ways that are not true to ourselves. Seeking approval from others by pretending to be someone we're not may temporarily get their approval, but it ultimately leads to a lack of respect and a feeling of inauthenticity. The only approval we truly need is our own. By living up to our principles and being true to ourselves, we can find inner peace and a sense of self-worth that cannot be taken away.
