Are You Dependent on Others Approval and Validation?
๐ ๐๐๐๐๐๐๐ ๐ก๐๐ฉ๐ข๐ต ๐ช๐ง... the attention and care and approval youโre desperate to receive from someone else, is exactly what youโre failing to give yourself?
Pause and ruminate on that for a moment.
Did it ring loudly in your ears like it did for me? What a concept, am I right? This notion that every need and desire you crave from another human are the very things you need to give to yourself.
The love.
The affection.
The undivided attention.
The quality time.
The words of affirmation.
The thoughtful gifts.
The acceptance.
The sโฌx.
All of it can be given to you, by you (๐คฏ).
When we depend on others to validate us, to love us, to hear us, and to support usโit leads to our demise. We end up in a constant search, lacking fulfillment, always needing more, never feeling like weโre enough, and completely losing ourselves.
And itโs because weโre searching outside ourselves; everything we need can be found looking inward.
You donโt need anyone to give you what you want, you have the means to give it to yourself. And then, when someone else adds to your cup of love, it overflows because itโs already full; as opposed to the empty cup that perpetually drains the minute someone isnโt there to fill it.
Iโm inviting you to take a closer look at what youโre longing for and instead of finding someone else to give it to you, give it to yourself.
