When we seek approval from others we are inviting them to judge us. Even if we are expecting the judgment to be positive. One way in which we fall into judging ourselves so harshly is by looking to seek our OWN approval. Then if we fall short we find ourselves in a web of negative responses towards our self evaluation.
The best advice I ever received was to be kind, gentle and compassionate to ourselves.
