Listen to Yourself. How to Gain Independence from Other People's Opinions

PUBLISHER'S NOTE Other people's opinions sometimes seriously ruin our lives. They make us give up our calling for fear of being misunderstood by those around us. They require us to listen to the annoying colleague’s advice, so as not to seem arrogant. They provoke us to spend all our savings on a lavish wedding, just to please our relatives. You cannot climb a mountain while looking back at others, says motivational coach and entrepreneur Michael Lajster. Success and happiness are on the side of those who follow their own path. In this book, you will find a system of recommendations for interacting with the world that will help you free yourself from the power of others' expectations, start listening to yourself, and live fully. You will be amazed, but by ignoring 99% of the opinions of those around you, you can: • do them a favor; • get a promotion; • save money; and • achieve incredible freedom and happiness. REVIEW “The author Listen to Yourself conveys an important truth — you cannot be happy if your happiness depends on others. This is a book of indulgence that allows you everything: to refuse invitations, to ignore unsolicited advice, to demand a raise, and to do only what you truly want.” — Tata Kalnitskaya, author of the book “Without Filters,” host of the podcast “Without Barriers,” blogger QUOTES “None of this success would have happened if I had listened to the opinions of others and conformed to their expectations.” “In life, there is only one opinion about you that truly matters — your own.” “If your happiness depends on the behavior of others, you will never be happy.” “The happier you are, the more likely you are to have a positive impact on the world around you.” “No — is just as valid an answer as yes.”
