So I've been thinking about the new years and what my resolution should be. Last year I made a goal to work out 2 or 3 days a week and I did extremely well with that. After my surgery in July I did it 5 days a week and I lost 5 pounds total and 4 inches. So I'd say I did great! :)
This year I've been reading what people have said what their resolutions would be and a lot of the time it has been not caring what people think about them. I think that's what mine should be too. I've spent A LONG time in my 24+ years caring what people think and wondering if they like me or not and when I post things to Facebook or instagram I get really anxious to get likes or comments and get really upset when no one or some people like my stuff. This year my goal is going to be to stop caring. It's ridiculous how much I get annoyed when people don't like my stuff. It shouldn't really matter how many likes or comments I get. I always have felt like if I don't get likes or comments that people don't like me, and that's ridiculous, I know. So from now on I'm going to post what I want and not care and that goes for real life outside the social world. Sometimes I have this feeling like not a lot of people like me, and that shouldn't matter either. I have my son and family and my husband who loves me. That's who I should worry about. Not everyone else. This year I'm going to work on loving myself more and not care what others think about me. :)
I have a similar problem. I always think that people don't really like or care about me much, outside of family. I've begun to realize that this is completely inaccurate and I need to stop thinking like that. I need to start assuming that people want to be my friend, and not the other way around.
ReplyDeleteI'm so glad I'm not the only one. :) in my mind I think that since not everyone talks to me 24/7 it automatically means they don't like me. That's so not true and I need to stop that.
