Stop trying to get those around u to understand you or see you how u want to be seen.. we tend to get so caught up trying to prove ourselves to other people.
Searching for the validation externally will only keep you in a constant mindset of not being enough, because truth is you are not going to make everyone like you. You are not going to get everyone to see you how you see you.
Instead get right with yourself. Your actions, your thoughts. For YOU.
Everyone n everything else will follow.
