Questions to ask yourself if you’re concerned about what other people think:

- How true is what we believe they’re going to say (how valid is their feedback / opinion)?
- What is the motivation behind someone sharing their opinion about me?
- What is the intent of this person’s feedback / opinion?
- What role does this person play in my life?
- Do I aspire to be like this person?
- Does this person know more than me?
