We all want our views, our emotions, our words and actions to be acknowledged. At times, we are willing to do anything to acheive this validation. Interestingly, you may be a university or school topper and acheiver, yet not feel acknowledged because somewhere deep within you may have decided to call yourself "Average". You may be benchmarking yourself with your parents, your siblings, your friends or anyone else and therefore, always convincing yourself that you are "Average".
This sentiment of life may fuel you to work hard and achieve success. However, you may question or continue to not accept the level of success because you have always lived with the belief of "I can't do it", or "It happened accidently to me". You are waiting for the next validation to make you believe that you are actually capable.
When does this vicious cycle come to an end? How many validations do we need?
Any number of validations cannot be enough till you acknowledge yourself.If you make seeking acknowledgements as the purpose of your life, you will get stuck and live your life at that level.
