I made a list which has at the top: "People Whose Opinions About Myself I Give A S**t About."
9 people made it: my grandma, my uncle, my parents, my brothers, my boyfriend, and my two best friends.
When I'm at parties or work or the coffee shop, or other kinds of social situations, and I start to worry about what someone else will think of me, I remember whether there's anyone around who made my list or not. If not, then I shut the thought down, right away. I think it works, I have trained myself pretty well.
I would recommend this for anyone in high school or college especially.
Image seems to be really important these days, and I think people get really self-centered because of it. You worry about how you look and come off to people FAR more than they actually care.
If you made a list like this, who would be on it? Do you think it would work for you? Why or why not?
