Independence from Positive and Negative Opinions

It’s crucial to remain independent of both the positive and negative opinions of other people. If you gain their approval, you’ll become a slave to outside words of praise. If you gain disfavor, you’ll spend your life trying to change other people’s minds about you. Either way, you lose your self-hood. If you want to follow your passion, be independent of the good opinion of others.

Above all: Give yourself permission to two-step, march, waltz, or boogie to your own beat.
