External validation

only person you should ever need validation from is yourself.

It's easy to say but hard for new generations to do. " Here you go Johnny, have your participation award"

The new generations are trained. It's almost like it's on purpose

No, it's not only your point of view. People want to feel important. As they aren't finding a meaningful live in themselves or in their work, they seek validation on others. They all want to be heard, they want to give you advice, they want to tell you what to buy, to eat, to dress, how to relax, how to make, save and/or spend money... The list is endless.

But you honor a person when you give value to his opinion. Don't do that. Stick with reliable facts, don't try to shock people with your appearance, and be yourself. It's a way to enjoy happiness wherever you are, in a golden palace or in a small hut on the mountains.

True, but we live in dark times. Maybe our civilization comes to end.

Because in a mass society like the United States or most European countries, it is harder to get recognized outside of most niche accomplishments and feel like they're not given any serious contention and consideration of anything, therefore they stick to this mode of chasing external validation, as if external validation instrumentalizes your actions any better.

Peoples capital on external validation is also the reason everyone over-thanks celebrities for who they are.
