Brianna Wiest - The Mountain Is You_ Transforming Self-Sabotage Into Self-Mastery (2020)

222 BRIANNA WIEST
Nobody is thinking about you in the way that you think
they are thinking about you. They are mostly thinking of
themselves. When you feel self-conscious for going grocery
shopping in your sweatpants, please know that nobody
cares and nobody is looking. When you feel anxious
about your accomplishments or lack thereof, please know
that for the most part, nobody cares and nobody is looking.
This is true of absolutely everything in life.
Nobody is evaluating you the way you are evaluating you.
They mostly take you at face value. Stop thinking that
you’re the sun that everyone revolves around. This world
is not all about you. Your life isn’t even all about you. The
more you can put aside your spotlight complex, the more
you’re going to be able to relax.
ASK FOR HELP, BECAUSE YOU’RE NOT SUPPOSED TO KNOW
EVERYTHING
We live in a specialized society.
People go to school; they apprentice and train to become
very skilled at one task. They then market and sell this task
in exchange for purchasing other people’s expertise.
You are not supposed to know everything.
You are not supposed to be a financial expert; that’s why
you can hire one to do your taxes or advise your investing.
