Don't Seek Validation
·
·
When I was confused on who I was when I retired from the military, I used to spend my time in the matrix (social media) looking for validation.
What I learned was I would be so triggered by others who:
seemed happier then me
who appeared to have their lives together
who were actually making an impact in their community and society.
I would follow/unfollow these people. Talk shit I’m my head about how they were turds before and how they’re full of shit.
Through extensive amounts of self reflection and personal development, I realized how sad I actually was inside.
Being triggered by everything is a sign of internal work to be done.
