I've had to wean myself away to make sure that any choices I make are grounded in myself rather than the seeking of approval.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Do not look for approval except for the consciousness of doing your best.
There's a conscious decision to everything I do.
I had no choice in the decision to make myself available. I was not always doing things I wanted to do.
The more decisions that you are forced to make alone, the more you are aware of your freedom to choose.
But rarely have I made choices that made me feel I was really compromising what I believe.
When you have to make a choice and don't make it, that is in itself a choice.
Any decision I make is based on myself, and the only person I have to give an explanation to is God.
I have worked hard and learnt that I have to make a decision - whether I am going to conform and protect myself or not. I chose not to.
I'm still craving approval from my parents. It took a lot of success for me to realize it was never coming. It's just not in their nature.
You should seek approval from yourself.
