“My guru ordinarily was gentle and affable to guests; his welcome was given with charming cordiality. Yet inveterate egotists sometimes suffered an invigorating shock. They confronted in Master either a frigid indifference or a formidable opposition: ice or iron!”
Paramahansa Yogananda - Autobiography of a Yogi
People will see in you what they want to see. You will see in yourself whatever YOU want to see, regardless of anyone's thoughts on the matter. Invest in what's under your control.
