I read about an athlete who made it all the way to the Olympics despite hating his chosen sport. He committed his entire life to ______ one tiny, yet large, sentence—I’m proud of you. At some point we all have someone we want to ______, whose approval means the world to us.
I have a clear memory of the person I wanted approval from telling me I was intelligent, the kind of memory that stays very clear because you’ve recalled it so many times. I had ______ someone’s opinion about buying a Canadian soda. “We should really support our own economy,” ten-year-old me said. I had no idea what that meant, ______ I was looked at with approval, and my heart was filled with ______. I loved that feeling—the approval of my hero. It was nothing like the Olympic athlete, but I made some very big ______ based on what might make them ______. I was hugely affected by wanting their approval.
Months ago this person removed me from his life. It hurt a lot. However, in life there is rarely hurt ______ growth. I recently ______ on myself and my behavior and noticed something—I feel free. After a period of denying and upset, I ______ that this is just how it is. This realization made me see how often I was transforming myself according to the ______, “What would they think?” I’d been using the desire for approval as an ______ excuse for hiding. My excuse was gone immediately I realized it ______. It was time to ______ step into myself and stop hiding who I am from others. Are you hiding? I hid in approval-seeking. Maybe you hide behind judgment. We all have our ways, and it can be really scary to let ______ go.
The thing is, ______, as long as we prevent ourselves being truly seen, we will never be truly understood. Connection with others won’t be wholly authentic, and we will edit ourselves because we ______ potential thoughts in other people’s heads. It’s pretty ______. Of course, breaking up isn’t ________ when you expect to be freed from wanting someone’s approval. You don’t even have to tell them you no longer care what they think of you. Just ______ and do what makes you happy and go for the things you really want in life. Do your thing, and let them do theirs.
