NOTE

Defending Your Reputation and Dealing with Haters

Challenging established ideas can lead to attacks on one's reputation as a way to protect norms. However, it is crucial to focus on how important individuals see you rather than seeking validation from the general public. Defending your reputation in every circumstance is futile and drains energy. It is essential to prioritize the opinions of those you respect over the broader public opinion. This approach allows for taking more assertive stances, even if it attracts haters. The key is to maintain respect from individuals who matter to you, rather than seeking validation from the masses.
