Do Not Insult Your Character or Capabilities by Trying to Prove Yourself to Other People…

in #mindset6 years ago

Hi, Steemians!

Even though our societies are highly competitive, it is easy to forget that so many people are out there everyday trying to question your competence.

Sometimes, even the people closest to you dare to be doubtful about your capabilities and ultimate potential.

We waste a whole lot of time trying to prove some things to people that should not be of any importance of value to us…

Ultimately, we are the only losers in a game like that.

Once, people wanted to test the faster breed of animal by pitting some dogs against a cheetah.

The cheetah didn’t even leave his cage for the match. No one knows exactly why, but some people seem to believe that the cheetah found the challenge insulting.

Obviously, if the cheetah went out and raced against the other dogs, he would unconditionally win.

But is that a worthy prize? Is that something to be remembered for? Racing against those dogs was the biggest insult to the cheetah.

Now I don’t mean to increase your dangerous vanity by telling you that you should be nonchalant towards other people and their advances.

What I am suggesting is that sometimes, we shouldn’t try so hard to prove ourselves to people that are not really important in hindsight.

You don’t need to prove your worthiness to other people. Other people are hardly important.

What really matters is your goal and purpose.

Work towards achieving that goal and impress the right sort of people that can get you where you want to go, not any old soul who would undermine you with no justifiable cause.

You do not have to prove yourself to other people.

Other people should see your capabilities and potential for themselves, if they are conscious enough to see it.

Trying to prove yourself to the wrong sort of people can sometimes be the greatest insult to your own character.

I cannot, for the life of me, understand some people and the depths that they are willing to go through in order to prove their worth to people in their lives…

People who, frankly, couldn’t care less about them in the first place.

Do not be that type of person. This is not about vanity or ego, but self-respect and understanding.

At the end of the day, we are what we make ourselves to be!

A BIG HUG!!!

Greetings @ chbartist

The bible states "no one is a prophet in his own land"

you must leave the comfort zone, looking for real challenges, according to the plan outlined

It is not about demonstrating that we can do something. It's about making things better every day, constantly improving. That must be the goal.

I have spent my entire life trying to please everyone else, and for what? It hasn’t made me happier or gotten me any further in life except for a hard Knox education. It wasn’t until I stopped caring about what other thought about me, and started caring about what I thought of me, and I will say I didn’t like it. So I am on a path of change! Single and loving it, focusing on this dude and his physical, mental, spiritual, and financial well being instead of everyone else’s. Don’t get me wrong I have teens that still need me, but they totally get where I am, and actually starting to follow the same path, so yeah, we are all WOKE around here! Lol! Thanks as always for the posts!

Thanks for the enlightenment!

Many of us, especially at this modern time, are really competitive for even the smallest of things. A simple argument about a topic in social media will last for what it feels is a lifetime. The funny thing is that none of those arguments or debates are concluding anything. It is basically a waste of time and worthless.

Great post, I learned something valuable today ;)

Sometimes people go too far in trying to prove something to others and come off as arrogant or even stretch the truth of their capabilities. We should always focus on the task at hand to focus on our goals and objectives!

If you compare yourself with someone then you're insulting yourself
I completely follow this and dont try to compare and prove myself to someone else. Everyone's aim and priorities are different and can't connect with someone else.

Yes you are right, we don't need to prove ourselves. Comparing yourself with others is like insulting yourself.

Posted using Partiko Android

Yes, we should never prove ourselves in things that are worthless but to the things that make us great and better person.

It's reality, we never know that how much we are closed our desire. We are doubtful about our capability and our ultimate potential.
