📢 Other people’s opinions? They’re just that—opinions.
They only have as much power over you as you allow them to have.
Sure, opinions can feel critical, judgmental, or know-it-all. But here’s the thing, they don’t define you. They don’t dictate your choices. What does have power over you? The thoughts you attach to those opinions. 💯
This is where your power comes in: when someone offers their opinion, you get to choose what to think about it. You get to decide how much weight it carries.
Next time you feel yourself spiraling from someone else’s words, pause. Ask yourself:
Why am I giving so much power to this opinion?
Do I actually believe any part of it?
Is it true or is it just a story I’m telling myself?
Can I look past the horizon and notice what my inner knowing believes instead?
You get to decide what to believe. You get to take your power back. Stop letting other people live rent-free in your head. 💙
