Mind Snack Ep. 13 - Others

Stop worrying about what others think.

Welcome to another issue of Mindsnack.

I don't know who needs to hear this, but it's time to stop worrying about what others think. Seriously, no one thinks about you the way you think about you. We all tend to believe that everyone is paying close attention to our every move, but here’s the truth: they’re not.

No one cares if you start a YouTube channel. 🎥 No one cares if you launch a business. 💼 And when I say "no one cares," I don’t mean it in a negative way. It’s just that people are too wrapped up in their own lives to spend much time scrutinizing yours.

Think about it—how often do you catch yourself obsessing over someone else’s decisions or worrying about their next step? Probably not much, right? That’s because we’re all naturally focused on our own challenges, dreams, and ambitions. So, when it comes to your own choices, you’ve got way more freedom than you think.

The fear of judgment is one of the biggest roadblocks that hold people back from pursuing what they truly want. But the spotlight is never as bright as you imagine it to be. You have room to experiment, try, fail, and try again—without the world keeping tabs on your every move.

Once you let go of the need for external validation, you open yourself up to a world of possibilities. You start making decisions based on what you truly want, not what you think others expect of you. And that’s where real progress begins. 🚀

So. Start that project, make that move, and pursue what’s been on your mind. The only person truly paying attention to your journey is you—and that’s exactly how it should be.
