you seek approval and appreciation from others? 
We all have- at one time. It started with our parents or caregivers and on and on it goes...
As children we did not know any other way.

As adults- we MUST Get Over It because
seeking validation from others... A.K.A
'Begging' for permission to be the way we are... 
is the most stressful and destructive thing you can do to yourself!

Why does it matter if other people approve or appreciate you- or not? More importantly
Do YOU approve of or appreciate YOU?

People appreciate other people who give them what they want.
(like $, sex, status, attention, compliments, praise, companionship, etc)
 People only approve of others who agree with them, and do what they want them to do. If you don't agree with them - or feel the same about-
 religion, sex, other people, politics, God, or Money.... you become wrong  and an "enemy".
Then, if - or -when they change their mind,  you have to also ~or ELSE-

We all know that you can never please everyone. So how do you pick who's approval and appreciation you need to get?

"How about starting with approving of yourself?"
 
How about approving of-
Your looks, Your body, Your life, Your thoughts, Your choices...

Do you appreciate you?
Do you think what you have to give is valuable?
 Do you love the way your body works?
 Do you recognize the amazing person you are?
If you dont - Can you at the very least see your 'Potential'?
Have you made some mistakes.. of course, we all have- let's get past the past and live in the Now... Reality
 
This is the way to go! This is where "it's at"!!!

If You have a Prayer- Ask for this-
"Dear God, spare me from the desire to seek the approval and appreciation of others"- Amen
