I have reached a point in my life where I feel it is no longer necessary for me to try and impress anyone. If people like me the way I am, that's fine and if they don’t, well it’s their loss. The less I care about how they feel, the happier I am.
Don’t be embarrassed by who you are. They’re going to judge you anyway, no matter what you do or say.
So forget about what everyone else thinks. Do whatever makes you happy. Live on your own terms and rules, don't you play by someone else’s.
It is hard learning not to care and it takes a lot of practice, but once you master this art, you master the world.
