Have you ever heard someone say, "I don't' care what anyone thinks of me," but a lot of that person's actions scream that they do care? As humans, we are hard-wired to seek approval. It's like there is an unspoken belief that unless people approve of you, your worthless. There are real-life consequences for approval seeking, consequences that impact relationships, career, and your peace of mind. Approval-seeking behavior is intended to get more approval and respect from others, yet what people generally respect are people who are true to themselves. It is nice to have the approval of others, but the way to get it is to have self-approval and self-respect. On today's show, we will look at six tools you can use to break the approval-seeking cycle.
