Episode notes

Self-valuation should primarily rely on internal factors such as self-worth, self-love, self-respect, and self-acceptance, accounting for 90% of one's value, while external validation should only account for 10%. The challenge arises when individuals allow this external validation to dominate their self-perception, mistakenly elevating it to 100%. This shift leads to a cycle of seeking approval rather than embracing authenticity, causing a focus on winning love instead of giving it. Acknowledging and adhering to this 90-10 balance can help mitigate negative self-talk and foster a healthier self-image.
