My name is Sangeet and today I have a message for you.
We humans think,
And some of us think a lot.
And we think different things.
And one of the biggest things that we think is what other humans think of us.
We think that because we want everybody to like us.
Because if they don't,
Then we feel bad about it.
Who likes to have someone telling us that they don't like us?
No one,
Right?
Even if it is someone who we have just met.
Even if it is a stranger.
It is always unpleasant and uncomfortable.
This is such a common place for so many of us.
Because we want to be liked and loved.
And so we care about what others think of us.
And with so much emphasis on this,
And so much pressure to be liked and to be loved,
We completely forget to flip the coin.
And then we connect.
We have colleagues.
We have friends.
We have lovers.
And all we think of is what they think of us.
Because all we want is to be liked and to be loved.
Then one day we wake up and we realize that we were so focused on what they thought of us,
That we totally forgot of what we thought of them.
Whatever reasons or root causes we have to care so much of what others think of us,
When most of our energy goes to that,
We lose focus on ourselves and on our standards,
And we end up surrounded by energies that may not be the best.
Plus,
The fact that we worry so much of what others think,
Can be on its own a sign and a result of connecting to people who are not balanced,
Such as beings who manipulate and threaten.
Because when we are manipulated and threatened,
In some way we are played into pleasing and doing whatever they want,
And we adopt this overall behavior as a way to compensate and to bring harmony,
Believing that this is the way to be liked and to be loved.
Now,
Here's the thing.
No love from others will ever be enough for us,
Because we people,
As we know,
We think a lot,
And one of the things that we also do is to change our mind.
And not only we change our mind,
But we also change our mood,
Our words,
Our actions,
Our preferences.
We change everything,
And even if we don't,
We are always on the verge to do it.
So,
Pleasing others to have some kind of approval is a full-time job that not only takes a lot of effort,
But also takes a lot of frustration,
Because it is all about carrying out an unrealistic task to accomplish an unattainable goal.
Maybe more important than what people think of us is what we think of people,
Not because we are in some kind of pedestal in which we judge everybody from the top,
But because it is important to evaluate our relationships and to choose to be surrounded by the right people,
Those that make us feel safe and at ease and definitely not constantly worried about what they think of us.
So,
Today,
Let's keep the focus on our energy and on what comes out of it,
As long as it comes from a place of love and respect for ourselves and for the planet.
And let's not worry so much about what others think.
We don't want to be surrounded by those who require too much effort anyway.
And then,
Those who don't will easily come and stay with us.
And let's remember,
Our main sources of love are us and this higher force that constantly feeds us with more and more of it.
From us and the Universe,
We love,
We love ourselves,
We love others,
And in many forms,
We are also loved by the world.
