Do what makes you happy


So many people in today's society feel like they have to please everybody - obviously, not everyone thinks this but there are a great proportion of people who do. I know that it is hard to stop caring about what other people think of you, I've tried.

However, there are quite a few quotes out there which explain why it is not important what other people think of you. 

So, I'm going to share my favourites with you:


"I can't tell you the key to success, but the key to failure is trying to please everyone." - Ed Sheeran

"You can be the ripest, juiciest peach in the world, and there's still going to be somebody who hates peaches." - Dita Von Teese

"Too many people in the world to let just one keep you down." 

"Your value doesn't decrease based on someone's inability to see your worth." 

"Stop trying to fit in when you were born to stand out." 

"Life is too short to be distracted by the opinions of others." 

"You can't base your life on other people's expectations." - Stevie Wonder

"Be who you are and say what you feel, because those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind." - Dr. Seuss 

"To be yourself in a world that is constantly trying to make you something else is the greatest accomplishment." - Ralph Waldo Emerson 

"With fame, you know, you can read about yourself, somebody else's ideas about you, but what's important is how you feel about yourself." - Marilyn Monroe 



Note: Don't kill me if I'm wrong about who said them or don't know.
