Description
There is an enormous weight we carry in trying to control the perceptions others have of us. We want to be seen a certain way and when there is a threat to the image we have built and try to hold on to, we go into struggle mode in order to protect it.
The reality though, is that people will see us how they see us. What they’re seeing is a mere fraction of what has actually happened. Our actions are so deeply intertwined with a whole lifetime of their conditioning, that it’s really not up to us how we are perceived.
