Do you value internal over external validation?

External validation feels great in so many ways, but it seems like the root of many growing social issues these days.

Even when trying to do things solely for ourselves, there's probably something in the back of our minds hoping for other's approval.

How do you get to a point where even if the entire world were against you, you could remain confident in your own convictions and internal approval alone?

Do you have any sources of self-worth that you keep entirely to yourself?

Have no idea what internal validation would feel like. Never achieved it. That I can remember anyway.

Definitely internal

You will be happy through internal validation/self-confidence

External is just plugging the holes that you have internally and it's temporary
