This one is from Dhar Mann, whom I follow on Facebook:
"If you find yourself trying to prove to someone that you're enough, it sounds like the person that really needs convincing is you! When you recognize your own self-worth, you won't ever need to prove it to anyone else."
Fact. I have spent most of my adult life seeking validation from others. Thank goodness I have exited gracefully (ok, maybe not gracefully all the time!) from that unholy mental phase of my life. Now, every night, I reflect on my thoughts and actions for a few minutes before bed and assess whether I have been kind and just to myself. If not, tomorrow is a new day.
Better late than never.
