I heard it on a podcast again today…
‘I don’t care what anyone thinks’…is often hailed as a climactic psychological moment…and artists use this phrase all the time when talking about their latest creative project. But it’s a self centered and selfish sentiment. And maybe they don’t mean it that way…
I hope what they really mean is, ‘I know whose thoughts I care about’. This phrase is incredibly powerful, and a useful way to move forward in careers and relationships.
Not everyone in the world gets a say in your life...but someone, a few people, certain people, or a certain audience need to have a vote.
Not caring what anyone thinks is a lonely place.
