As babies, we seek to please our parents for our survival. As we grow we learn that pleasing teachers and authority figures helps in getting good grades and achieving success. This early experience usually results in an unconscious drive to impress others in order to build self-confidence. However, relying on external feedback for our sense of self-worth ultimately leads to a disconnection with our own authentic needs. It’s critical to remember there’s only one person we can ever please that will result in internal alignment and self-love…
Ourselves.
