The biggest place I look for validation is from my mother. That's the little girl in me that will never grow up.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I'm not running around looking for love and validation.
I don't seek validation outside, not even with the audience. Today they like me, but tomorrow they may hate me. I don't want to be anybody's role model.
I don't live my life seeking validation from people on social media.
I have a very steadfast tendency to parent myself, to monitor my development into the person I want to be. I've tried to keep the corruption minimal.
The only ones I trust really are my Mum and Dad and those who are closest to me.
My mom is very confident and she was always a role model of mine.
I wasn't truly comfortable with myself until I was about 30. I spent so much time and energy wondering if I wasn't worthy, and trying to find people to validate me, instead of validating myself.
When you are young you don't always realise how full of doubts everybody is.
When we are looking for validation, that will never satisfy us. When we are looking for affection, for love, a little bit of that will be enough to be complete.
Everybody is looking for validation, no matter who you are, and I think that's a need of the human condition - to look for affection or recognition or validation.
