people thinking about them self

How people think about their self,well people alway think about that their are the best they never admit that they are wrong and they always complain but their is also people that is very honest but most of the people are not and people don't admit that they are wrong they only think other are the worst land this is another answer that how people think of their self People are not born with low self-esteem. Instead, we develop ideas about ourselves and our place in the world as a result of our life experiences. People who experience enough positive reinforcement, praise, love, and acceptance tend to develop some positive self-beliefs. Those who suffer experiences of adversity, trauma, criticism, bullying, and neglect are more likely to experience low self-esteem. What Do People Think About Themselves? is a 'conversation starter' exercise designed for children and young people to explore how self-beliefs are developed. If you want to be your best and perform at a high level, fear of people's opinions may be holding you back.

Think about a time when you were extremely anxious — say, before standing up to publicly speak, raising your hand in a big meeting, or even walking through a room of strangers. The reason you felt small and scared and tense is you were worried about social disapproval.

Our fear of other people's opinions, or FOPO as I call it, has become an irrational and unproductive obsession in the modern world, and its negative effects reach far beyond performance.

If you start paying less and less attention to what makes you you — your talents, beliefs, and values — and start conforming to what others may or may not think, you'll harm your potential. You'll start playing it safe because you're afraid of what will happen on the other side of the critique. You'll fear being ridiculed or rejected. When challenged, you'll surrender your viewpoint. You won't raise your hand when you can't control the outcome. You won't go for that promotion because you won't think you're qualified.

Unfortunately, FOPO is part of the human condition since we're operating with an ancient brain. A craving for social approval made our ancestors cautious and savvy; thousands of years ago, if the responsibility for the failed hunt fell on your shoulders, your place in the tribe could be threatened. The desire to fit in and the paralyzing fear of being disliked undermine our ability to pursue the lives we want to create.

This underscores why we need to train and condition our mind — so the tail is not wagging the dog.

If you find yourself experiencing FOPO, there are ways to dampen the intensity of your stress responses. Once you're aware of your thoughts, guide yourself toward confidence-building statements (I am a good public speaker, I've put in the work so that I can trust my abilities, I have a lot of great things to say, I'm completely prepared for this promotion). These statements will help you focus on your skills and abilities rather than others' opinions. Take deep breaths, too. This will signal to your brain that you're not in immediate danger.

But, if you really want to conquer FOPO, you'll need to cultivate more self-awareness. Most of us go through life with a general sense of who we are, and, in a lot of circumstances, that's enough. We get by. But if you want to be your best while being less fearful of people's opinions, you need to develop a stronger and much deeper sense of who you are.

You can start by developing a personal philosophy — a word or phrase that expresses your basic beliefs and values. The personal philosophy of Pete Carroll, my business partner and head coach of the Seattle Seahawks, is "always compete." For Coach Carroll, always competing means spending every day working hard to get better and reach his fullest potential. This philosophy isn't a platitude or slogan; rather, it's his compass, guiding his actions, thoughts, and decisions. As a coach. A father. A friend. In every area of life.
