No One Cares, So Go For It!

Most people are afraid to do something different from what they have been programmed to do or just let loose. Schools, our parents, and other institutions have turned us into individuals who follow the rules. On the surface, it makes sense to follow the rules because society functions better. Unfortunately or fortunately, these rules we follow keep us from being our true selves.

What do I mean by that? I don’t know if you have experienced a situation when a friend or a family member drank one too many drinks. Before the person goes beyond the tipping point of drunkenness, the person’s filters are down. The person is relaxed to the point that many of the beliefs about public behavior or thinking about how others might perceive the person deactivate. Such a person is now having fun and calling every person known or unknown a friend, or it could go in the opposite direction into feelings of resentment or anger and frustration. Either way, the person is now being true to himself or herself.

That is who we are. Without any altering substance, we suppress our feelings. We are rule followers. We don’t want to change things in our lives. We are so accustomed to our lives that we are resistant to change. We are afraid. Now that in itself is not the end of the world. What if there was a better way? What if you were to discover that you can have your cake and eat it? What if you discover that your true self and your happiness are closer than you have considered? For this same reason, one should care less about what people think or say about ourselves. It does not matter. Whether you follow rules or follow your intuition, people do not care because they are too busy with their own lives.

For a moment or for some time, people will be talking about whatever you did or did not do, but soon it will be forgotten. So, if you know that it will be forgotten, who cares about people’s judgments?

You must care about your own life and be aware that your life is turning out the way you desire it. If not, focus more on how to change for the better. It will be more productive if you focus on how to get better than caring about the judgement of others. Get better financially. Get better mentally and spiritually. It is your choice. It is your right!!

So, enjoy your life and live in a way that your life is so big that others would like to experience your success or your happiness. Care not about what others think about you and be the magnificent human that you are. Open up, be free.

People do care, but they are not actually thinking about your situation. We are all busy in this business of living life. Be sure to be busy in the things that matter to you. Be sure to avoid the feeling of being liked. When we like ourselves more as the people that we are, the attention of others becomes irrelevant. And then, people would be curious as to why we appear so happy, even when things are not going well. It is a superpower. I hope you find it in you.
