No matter how people tell themselves that they are not worried about someone else's opinion, this is not so, because sometimes it is very difficult to avoid someone else's influence. Moreover, the more people around, the more opinions and the more time is spent on them. If you are tired of depending on someone else's opinion, then take action, but keep in mind that getting rid of this addiction is quite difficult.
Instructions
Step 1
People around you appreciate your appearance, work, study, personal life. In addition to strangers, there are also friends and relatives whose opinion is especially important to you. You live among these people, who sometimes determine your place and position in life. Therefore, you cannot completely reject someone else's opinion, you just need to learn to draw the line between ordinary public opinion and your excessive dependence on it.
Step 2
For people who succumb to other people's influence, the most terrible punishment in life is the negative reaction of the people around them. If you belong to this category of people, then try to realize that for every negative reaction there will definitely be a positive one. Each person is individual in his views, but, despite this, all people are equal in rights. Therefore, the opinion of one person cannot be more correct than another.
Step 3
Most often, people who do not know what they want from life are subject to the opinion of others. They have not prioritized in their lives, so any phrase they know is defined by them as a call to action. If you are worried about a negative opinion, for example, about your young man, determine for yourself the traits of his character that are pleasant to you, as well as those that you do not like, think about what you can close your eyes to and what not. Then listen to what the other person is telling you and appreciate the importance of this information to yourself.
Step 4
Remember everything that you have done in life, which you have achieved on your own in a particular field of activity. Almost any person has something to boast about, there is definitely something that he has achieved through his efforts and his inherent character traits.
Step 5
Try to look into your soul. It is quite difficult, but try to create a mental model of an unpleasant situation for you, remember what happened to you or could have happened. Think about the mistakes you made that caused you to start listening to other people's opinions. Try to identify a possible benefit for your advisor in that you start thinking in this direction. Answer the question honestly for yourself: why are you afraid to rebuff other people's opinions and why are you afraid to start listening to yourself. Try to overcome your fear. Having done this once, it will be much easier for you in the future, because the most difficult thing is to take the first step.
Step 6
Communicate as much as possible, meet new people, listen to different points of view, learn to speak, boldly express your point of view. Realize that you do not depend on someone else's opinion, it will not come immediately, maybe in a month, and possibly in a year. Gradually, you will catch yourself thinking that the other person's opinion is just his thoughts and his point of view. It has the right to life, but it is not a guide to action.
