Summary

This quote suggests that if someone always seeks validation, approval, and happiness from others, they will never truly be able to find happiness within themselves. Relying solely on external sources of applause and recognition means that their contentment is dependent on the opinions and actions of others. True happiness requires cultivating self-acceptance, self-love, and finding fulfillment from within, rather than seeking constant validation from external sources. Ultimately, one's happiness should be in their own hands, not reliant on others.
