We live in an evolving world, where you can make money as a social media influencer or a coach or a podcaster or a travel blogger. It’s fascinating, and yet … Our society is full of people who judge others for their choices. Older generations grew up with a very specific idea of what it looks like to be an adult: go to college, get a job, get married, work until you retire. And anything that looks different from that brings out critics in droves.

 

In today’s episode, I’m talking about putting yourself out there and ignoring the critics. I’m sharing why you should follow your passions, how to ignore the judgment of others, and the beauty of embracing your life.

 

If you’re sitting on the sidelines, judging others for what they do, you’re wasting valuable time that could be spent exploring your own interests and desires. If you’re a creator or an entrepreneur, keep putting yourself out there. Everything you do leads to where you’re going. Make your life count for something that is meaningful or exciting or inspiring for you.

 

Don’t live your life in fear of judgment from others because that only leads to a life full of regrets. Take risks to live the life you want without worrying about what others think. It can be difficult and lonely, but it’s worth it for your long-term happiness.
