Summary

This quote highlights a common human tendency of being overly concerned about others' opinions of us. It suggests that we often expend unnecessary energy and worry on what people think, when in reality, people don't really think about us as much as we imagine. If we could realize that others are often preoccupied with their own lives and are not constantly judging or analyzing us, we would be free from the burden of seeking validation from others and could focus on being true to ourselves.
