SOOP - The Big Obstacle of Success

There are some people whose opinions NEED to matter to you.
The person who writes you your check.
The person who hires you.
You don't live alone on the planet, but you sure don't have to live in fear of other people's opinion of you.
If you are held back by lack of (or timid) action, fear of failure or any other issue that may cause you embarrassment or fear of ridicule, then you have a problem with caring too much about the other person’s thoughts more than you care about success.
Think about your finances.
Do you give in to the "going out" when you know you don't have the cash? Do you buy big expensive things like cars to make sure you don't look like the "outsider" while all the while your money situation is totally out of control?
You care too much what others think.
What do you want?
- Do you want to lose weight?
- Do you dream of building wealth?
- Do you desire a great relationship?
- Are you trying to succeed by promotion in your career?
If you let the VALUE you place on the opinions of other people get in your way, you've screwed up big time and the fact is that until you see this, you won't accomplish anything (even if you have 'The Secret')
The solution to caring what others think is easier said than done. But there is a way within your mind that you can make it much more of a reality. And with some practice, you'll be much more respected for your achievements.
Here are a few ways to stop caring too much about what others think.
1. Take a stand.
There's an old saying that goes "If you don't stand for something, then you'll fall for anything". That is one of the most profound statements that I have ever heard. The fact is if you don't stand up for your convictions, your passions, you'll wimp out and fold when you are challenged.
Take a stand.
Know why you take a stand.
Know your position on what you believe and know why you take that position.
Do NOT just believe something because you heard it somewhere and your friends seem to believe it. Taking a stand is more than being someone's parrot.
Be an individual and you'll make a powerful impression.
