REVIEW OF THE WEEK:
5-Stars - 5 Stars by jaylaBillions
This is an awesome podcast. It changed my life.

GETTING THE RIGHT PEOPLE TO LIKE YOU
Well, we can't control people's opinions of us, but we can control whose opinions we esteem and who we spend the most time with. 
How are you supposed to confidently make good friends with good people?
How do you break the cycle of trying too hard to get people to like you?
How do you learn to figure out who will be life-giving or soul-sucking in your life?
It all comes down to learning how to assess what type of person someone is. Or, more accurately, what season of growth they are in in their lives. We are humanly capable of being both types, but to be the type that builds great relationships and thinks beyond themselves, we have to do some soul growth and work. 
COVID-19 REVEALED TWO TYPES OF PEOPLE:

Self-focused people.
Other-focused people.

This is non-age-discriminate, non-gender based and not socio-economically tied. 


SELF-FOCUSED PEOPLE


Interested in self-promotion, in getting attention, in getting praise
Thinks about proving themselves and wanting to stand out from the crowd
Driven to be better than others because they want to be special or famous and noticed
Mindset of scarcity and competition - always thinking about what's next


OTHER-FOCUSED PEOPLE


Interested in making a difference, in having authority, in living out their purpose
Thinks about how they are loved and how to share that with others
Driven to have influence over others because they want to make a positive difference
Mindset of abundance and collaboration - working to be present and grateful
THE "THEY'RE ALLOWED TO NOT LIKE ME" CHALLENGE

Write out the names of 3 people who you worry might not like you
Then write out what it would really mean if they didn't?
Ask yourself if you even really like them, and why their opinion of you matters.
Be honest - does their opinion of you challenge your overall happiness or life?
Repeat out loud: people are allowed to not like me.
