Have you stopped seeking validation?

After I developed confidence, I stopped giving a fuck about validation from others. I did have some crabs trying to pull me back down into the bucket, but again, zero fucks given.

The only problem with this is it takes a series of successful experiences to build confidence, and that takes time.

I'd say I enjoyed my 30's much more than my 20's as I cared less and less what other people thought.

Cheers

At first you need to keep your validation-seeking self in check, after a while it just becomes part of you to not seek approval/validation.

I don't chase validation anymore. I developed goals I want to achieve and strive aggressively to fulfill them. Chasing validation in my honest opinion is a feminist trait. Women chase validation

Humans seek attention

Women seek attention much more than men though

But men seek it too

But men can apply it internally

Start loving yourself

Religion is pretty good for a purpose like this

If you give yourself validation, then you will not be looking for it from outside

I'd say Bible is a must-read for every men out there

It's so fucking great and full of wisdom

It's old people's TRP
