Is others' opinion important?

Tiantian Zou

Hello,

As I'm writing my success story worksheet, there's a question HOW DO I KNOW IF OTHER'S ARE PROUND OF ME? I honestly don't how others' feel about my success big or small. I feel stuck every time I get to that question. 

What do you think I should do?

Thank you,

I'm glad you brought that one up. Here's how I hold it. At the basis of all things there is just the One consciousness. We are all mirrors for each other. That is a good question because it can uncover some deep beliefs that are unconscious. What I think of others, I also think of myself and what I think ours are thinking about me can also be a projection of what I think about myself. That's some deep stuff I know but I get where you are coming from. If I think others think positive (proud) of me that's an indicator of what I think deep down. If I think others think negative (selfish), then that too is an indicator. This is the first time I've explained it in this manner. I hope it makes sense. If it doesn't ask me more questions. Questions create answers. You are amazing is what I think of you! ♥️
