How can I care less about people's opinion?

We all have a tendency to view the world as centered around us and that, therefore, everything we do affects the world. Not true.

Our own little space in the world does revolve around us and is affected by our actions and decisions. We have to learn that most opinions of others are not life-altering to our existence. What is most important is how we view ourselves and if we are comfortable with our self.

Don’t worry about how you come across to others. Just try to be polite, interested in them and concerned with what they are saying. Remember, they are in the same insecurity boat that you are.

Also, it is easier to make friends by listening to them rather than making them listen to you.

The more you pay attention to others, the more others are going to pay attention to you.

As time goes by you will be developing greater self confidence and better self esteem.

        Simply a Rose to brighten your day,         And maybe lessen the cares in your way;         And also, too, to help you to know,         That in knowing you, many others grow!

“How do I stop caring what people think of me???” — just think that they doesnt care about you it works for me and as long as you’re doing nothing wrong then why bother…

I know being yourself is just so overrated but it works darling..

Well, you noticed it yourself, so part of the problem is solved. Addressing something you want to change in your personality is very hard :) I don’t fully agree with the poster above. If you want to change something in your personality it is possible to do that, but it takes time and effort! Just remember, that people you don’t know can be equally ‘scared’ of meeting ‘new’ people (you :P) as well ;)
