Stop Worring about what other people think of me

Took me a long time and one divorce later and I just do not care anymore what other people think.

I am who I am like me or not it is your problem…not mine.

This is something that I put on my list ages ago and forgot about it – being the insecure and people pleasing person that I was, I believed that it was something that I’d never tick off. However, when revisiting my list – I realised that actually nowadays I’m not fussed what others think of me. They either get me or they don’t. I’ve come to a realisation about my personal value and good points, and if they can’t see that – well all the worrying and changing behaviour isn’t going to help. Basically, if you are a good, honest, caring, considerate person (which lets face it, most of the people who worry about other people’s thoughts are – if you are an evil, selfish, nasty person you aren’t really going to give two hoots about what someone else is thinking) then who are they to judge you on anything more than that. Give yourself a break :)

i cant help it. it plays on my mind all the time. if i wear a skirt i wonder if people are thinking im too fat to wear it. if i trip on a pavement are people laughing at me? when i say something silly do people judge me?i worry im not nice enough, not polite enough and not happy enough. instead of simply not giving two tosses about what people are thinking of me, i anaylse every little detail in to a big issue, and its usually all negative things that i feel people hold towards me. this is a big problem for me, and although it isnt really in my mind, its an automatic thinking process i have that causes me great stress and worry.

pointed out that I over worry and over analyze what others think about me. In some ways this is very true. I only worry about people who are important to me – the rest I dont care what they think
