016: What Other People Think

Do you worry about what other people think? We all do this and it would be easy to tell ourselves not to worry, but we know it’s more complicated than that.
Scroll down for a video & free download of my top 5 tips from this episode!
It’s very normal to care about what other people think, but it doesn’t serve us at all. We worry about what other people think and we project what other people think, but this keeps us from being who we want to be and doing what we want to do. If we can really begin to let go of what other people think, we will be liberated. In this episode, I share with you five ways to stop worrying about what others think. I also share some personal thoughts I use to change my inner dialogue.
I want you to be able to start letting this go so you can move forward, find the joy in your life, and start to learn inner approval and acceptance.

Do you ever worry about what other people think about you or what you're doing? I am laughing even asking that question because I think that we all do this. This is episode 16: What Other People Think.
Welcome to the Committed to Create Podcast. I'm Lisa Funk, and I am so excited to hang out with you here as we talk about the power of creating with our hands and our minds. I like to keep it real, remind you that you are not alone and share specific ways that creativity and mindfulness can help us live even more meaningful and joyful lives. I am so glad that you're here.
Hello, and welcome back to the podcast. I'm so glad that you came over to my house to hang out today, sitting on my big blue couch. Before we get started with today's episode. I wanted to have a segment called a mindful moment.
So last week I talked about how I've started cooking again, and it's been really fun because I had a long break from cooking, partly, and I decided to just kind of embrace it as a creative activity and something that I want to enjoy doing. And a big part of that is embracing my five senses and focusing on my five senses when I'm doing that activity, which is one of the easiest ways to become mindful in any moment of your life.
So whether it's in creativity or not, it's such a great practice for becoming more present and it really does decrease your stress. So I have just started trying to incorporate that more and more. And it's one of those things that you will never, I don't know anyone personally anyway, you'll never be able to do this constantly every moment of the day, but when you can just start doing it even for small periods, even for one minute at a time, It really makes a difference.
I know it might sound a little cheesy, but just give it a shot. And I wanted to remind you of the free guide that I have for you. It's called five creative steps to less stress. And it's all about how to creatively focus on your five senses. It's really kind of a different and fun way to become more present using creativity.

Okay. So today's episode, what other people think? I think that the first step in talking about this is just realizing and being aware of what an issue this is. Think about how often this comes up in conversation with other people or the conversation that you have in your own mind. We think about it, sometimes we worry about it and we also project what other people think. So we're thinking about what other people think, we're worrying about what other people think. And the problem is that this keeps us from being who we want to be and doing what we want to do. 
Now, I just want to be very clear here that this is everyone. This is something that is very innate in us to worry about what other people think. And this may go back to the instincts that people had to be accepted by the tribe. And it may go back to things that we experienced in childhood. Maybe things people said to us. And a lot of times it's well-meaning, but it still can have an effect.
So of course I want to instill in my children the idea to not worry about what other people think. And sometimes it comes back to bite me. For example, last week we were having some pictures taken in our home, just casual pictures. I love getting pictures taken with my family. Just at our house on the couch, you know, playing and whatever.
And my daughter was still asleep in the morning when the photographer got there. So I had to go wake her up because she had stayed up late reading. I had to go wake her up and I was trying to have her change out of her pajamas or whatever into something else. I am not even that picky about what my kids wear for these pictures. I am like, whatever it is, let's have it be somewhat normal, but it doesn't have to be some uncomfortable, fancy. Yeah. So I'm just trying to help my daughter pick out something to wear. 
 she's like, I'm going to wear this. I don't care. And it was so funny because she said, mom, I thought you always told us not to worry about what anyone else thinks of us. Why should I change my outfit? 
And I was like, oh, dang it. 
Those are those moments when you just want to give a little caveat, don't worry about what other people think, unless your mom wants you to wear something normal in the family picture. 
But I think that we get lots of cues throughout childhood and throughout our lives that we're supposed to worry about what other people think of what we look like, what we do with our lives, what we accomplish. Sometimes we might get little clues that our personality might be too strong or too mild for some people. We might get feedback about what we're doing or not doing. And we believe that we need to use this barometer of other people's opinions for what we should be doing in our lives.
So I just want to say that it's very normal to care about what other people think, but it isn't always very helpful to care about what other people think. It turns out that it doesn't really serve us. 
Now, of course, I want to teach my children to be respectful of others and to not harm others. Like, it definitely matters how other people feel in the world, but as far as other people's opinions of us and what we're doing for the most part, it really doesn't serve us to spend time worrying about what they think.
I mean, seriously, think about this. When was the last time that it really benefited you to worry about what someone else thought? When was the last time it really improved your life and what you were doing and who you were being to spend time thinking about what someone else thought of you? Who does it really help for you to spend time worrying about what other people think? And, not just to spend the time worrying, but to maybe hold back from who you feel you really are, or to not create something that you really want to create or not do something that you really want to do?
Who is it really helping? Cause it's probably not helping you. And I'd like to argue that it's also not helping the world. The world needs you to be who you are and to follow what you feel called to do and to create in your life. 
So I can tell you this, I could have just started the podcast and said, don't worry about what anyone else thinks, do what you want, but it's so much more complicated to actually let go. To actually move on from doing this. 
I know that I used to spend all a lot of time worrying about what other people thought of me. And so I can really relate to that. I want everyone to be happy. I like everyone to feel good. And so there might be this part of me that thinks maybe it's the right thing to do to care about other people's opinions, because I want to please them. I want to gain their approval. I want to make sure that everyone feels happy. But that often happens at my own expense. So I hold back from my passions or my ideas or doing something I want to do to help other people feel better. No, we're not going to do that. 
So to help us dive in a little deeper and to help me make my case, to help you to let go of what other people think about you, I'm going to go over five different reasons why we can stop worrying about what other people think. 
Number one. It's not about you. Now. I know that sometimes we hear people say, it's really not about you. When someone doesn't like you, it's really not about you, but when someone doesn't like you or doesn't approve of what you're doing, it's really hard to believe that that's true.
We are insecure often about what we're doing. And so we're looking for reasons to see that maybe it's wrong or maybe we're wrong, or there's something wrong with us. And so when someone says something, we think, oh, no, is that true? But I just want to illustrate how that is definitely not true. 
When you walk into a room of new people, they are all going to have a different opinion about it. Someone might think, oh, she's really friendly and nice. Someone else might think, oh, she's really full of herself. Now, if there was something about you, that was the truth that was consistent and constant and true because I believe that truth doesn't change, then everyone would believe the same thing. If it was about you, if it was your truth and it was about you, then everyone would believe the same thing.
But they don't, everyone leaves interactions having a different opinion because it's their thoughts that are causing their opinion of you. It's not about you. There isn't this one singular truth about you that is causing everyone to feel a certain way, because they're all feeling differently. I can guarantee you that everyone feels differently about you and about what you're doing.
So you get to decide what's true for you, and know that people are going to have a perception of you and what you're doing all based on their own thoughts and what they're thinking about it. 
Now I know that, I don't know, it sounds really simple when I just say it like that. But think about the last time that someone may have said something or you thought they might've said something about you and it's really hurtful because you don't think it's true.
I just want to encourage you that it isn't probably true. And that, that other person really is having their own experience based on their own thoughts. Now, I'm not telling you that you shouldn't care about other people and what they think or feel, but I want you to know that however they do think or feel is about them.
Number two is that you will never actually know what someone is actually thinking because we often filter what we're thinking for someone else. We might have a certain thought and it feels a little too raw or a little too strange. And so we kind of filter it and translate. When we're explaining to someone else what we're really thinking.
And sometimes we might tell someone what they want to hear. And sometimes we might tell someone what they don't want to hear, but we can never know for sure what they are actually thinking. 
For example, someone like your husband might say, I really think you look great in that dress. Because he thinks that that's the right thing to say. We don't know if that's what he's actually thinking. 
And someone also might say something mean or rude to make you feel bad, even if inside, they think it's great what you're doing, but they're just kind of jealous. 
So what someone says is not necessarily what they actually think. And there's no way to know what they actually think seriously.
So think about this. We're spending a lot of time worrying about what people think, and there's no way to know what they actually think. We can know what they say. We can hope that what they say is what they think, but there's no way to actually know. 
And so we can do number three. Number three is assume that people like and accept you.
This might sound conceited. I don't know, but I think that a lot of people do the opposite. I think a lot of people walk around thinking, oh my gosh, I don't think they like me. And then they're looking for evidence for why people don't like them and why someone might be mad at them. Have you ever met someone like that?
That's always worried about someone being mad at them. I think it's normal. But I just decided, I don't know, maybe 10 years ago to just assume that everyone likes me. And I'm not saying that everybody does, but it doesn't serve me, it doesn't help, to assume that they don't. I am making an assumption either way.
And so why don't I just assume that everyone likes me and that everyone accepts me and what I'm doing in my life. Why don't I just think they all think it's great. They all think it's great that I run a business and have my kids and do whatever I'm doing. Why do I sit there and think, oh, I bet she thinks this because one time she said something about someone else, or I bet she thinks this because she didn't do it this way.
Or I bet that, you know, because that look they gave me, they kind of gave me an off look. I think that they probably don't like me and think that I'm not a good person. It's so funny that we do this. We assume that people don't really like us or that they don't really approve of what we're doing. And it causes us a lot of pain and not just pain, but distraction from the thing.
It distracts us from the thing. I really think that worrying about what other people think is one of the greatest obstacles to creating the life that we want. To doing the things in our lives that we want to do. If we can really let these concepts sink in and really begin to let go of what other people think we will be liberated.
And I say this from experience, I used to worry so much about what other people were thinking. If they accepted what I was doing or who I was. And it really robbed me of so much joy. And it kept me from doing things that I really wanted to do. 
So number four is to let people own their own problem. When I was young, one of my best friend's moms used to ask us when we'd have issues with friends or whatever it might be, she would say who owns the problem?
Because if someone else was kind of, you know, letting us know that they had a problem with us, they owned that problem. We couldn't necessarily fix that problem for us. And this just goes back to the concept of, we can't make other people happy. We can't make other people feel any certain way. And if we do that, we're going to be very unhappy spending all of our time trying to force people to feel something when we do not have the power to do that.
So instead we can examine it. Who owns the problem? First of all, most of the time we're imagining what people think, they are necessarily even saying it to us, but even if they did, that is something that they own. I'm going to let them own their feelings about this. If they feel like this isn't the right choice for me, or that I'm doing something wrong or whatever it is, I'm going to let them own that.
And I'm going to allow them that agency, that choice, to think and feel however they want. It's totally fine. They can think that I'm doing something differently or you know, that maybe I'm not making the best choice and that's totally fine, but I'm going to let them own their problem. Or in other words, let them own that feeling.
Now, like I said, most of the time, we're imagining how people feel, but even then, if it were to be true, allow them to own it. Don't take it on. Don't pick that up and let it weigh you down just because you believe that that's how someone else feels 
Number five is really interesting, I think. A lot of times we say, oh my gosh, I really want to do this, but people are going to think I'm crazy. Or people aren't going to agree with what I'm doing or people this, people that. Number five is to identify who are these people, identify who the people are when you're saying people. 
You're probably not meaning everyone in the whole world. There's probably someone from your past or in your life now that you think about, when you worry about what quote unquote people think, is it a parent? Is it an old friend? Is it someone, an old boss? Think about who is it exactly that I'm really worried about their judgment and what they are thinking about what I'm doing and why, why am I worried about that person?
What it comes down to is often the approval, right? We want the approval of these people in our lives. And sometimes it can be someone really random. We did this exercise when I was getting certified as a life coach, and it was really fun to see who people had as like the person, the people quote, unquote, that they were worried about what they thought.
So, you know, for some people, it was an old boyfriend, it's just really interesting to think about who are the people that you're worried about getting approval from whether or not they're ever even going to know what you're doing right now or what choice you're making. But in all of this, we have to be really honest with ourselves when we are worrying about what other people think it's because we want their approval.
We want their approval, that we are valuable and worthy of love and acceptance. We really do. I know it sounds cheesy, but it's really true. We are looking for that approval. And when we are looking toward what other people think and spending a lot of time guessing and wondering, we're really looking for the approval of other people to validate what we are doing and creating in our life.
Being honest with ourselves about this is hard to do, honestly, because no one wants to say I seek outside approval. I seek for other's approval of me. No, we all want to say, oh, I don't care. What other people think. But the truth is that we do. And sometimes we do to a really large extent to the point that it's keeping us back, it's holding us back from what we want to do.
And that's what we have to evaluate when we are starting to worry about what other people think we have to ask ourselves, is this holding me back? Is this keeping me from being who I want to be and doing what I want to do in the world? Because I want you to know this truth. That approval is an inside job.
So take some time and ask yourself. What do you think about you? What do you think about what you're doing? Do you approve of it? Do you accept it? And oftentimes when people start doing this, they still start bringing in the other people's judgment, the other people's disapproval and worrying about it. But if we can come down to ourselves and our own approval, that is all we need. 
Now for some of us that really looked to God and prayer and use that as a way to kind of find the right path for ourselves. That can be another great place to turn, but we need to stop looking at other people for approval, especially when they haven't even said anything. Now, sometimes people have said something, but you guys be honest with yourselves right now. Tell the truth. How much of the time are you just imagining what people think about you imagining how they're judging you? Seriously! So in this journey to stop worrying about what other people think of us, what we're thinking is going to be the game changer here.
So in the past, this is what we're letting go of. Okay. So in the past, these are the things that I used to think a lot, and these are probably things that are very common to think things like, I wonder what so-and-so will think of me. I bet she thinks this is stupid. I bet he's going to think this is crazy or people don't like it when I do this.
Start noticing when you're having those negative thoughts. Those are the old ones. Those aren't the ones that we want. Those are the ones that hold us back. And like I said, they might not even be true. And if they are, we're going to let other people own those beliefs and those feelings about it. So moving forward, we want to choose thoughts that are going to help us to create and do and be what we want and what we approve of.
And this isn't in a self-serving way. This isn't in a selfish way, because I believe that no one benefits when we hold back from what we feel we should be and do. So this is in a way that's loving to ourselves and loving to those around us. 
And these are some of the thoughts that are helpful for me. One is I allow people to be wrong about me. It's totally fine if they're wrong about me. Someone might think something, someone might spread a rumor. Someone might say something, I don't know, again, you guys, I really assume that everyone likes me now. So I don't spend too much time thinking about, you know, possible rumors that people could be spread.
But even when you're meeting someone for the first time and maybe they don't have the reaction that you were hoping for, or they don't give the kind of feedback that you would like from someone, you can imagine what they're thinking. And you can imagine that it's negative, or you can assume that they like you, which is what I prefer.
Even if you kind of decide that maybe someone doesn't like you or thinks something wrong about you, that you can say, I allow people to be wrong. People are wrong about me sometimes. And it's totally fine. And then I know this is a little cheesy here with the affirmations, but I love them. They really work and make a huge difference, but you some affirmations about approval and acceptance.
So say to yourself, I love and accept you. I approve of you. Add your name in there, if you want to. I think it's really helpful. So I would say I approve of you Lisa, or I approve of this decision.  I love this decision. I love what we're doing and it's okay, if other people don't, you can say to yourself, I will create what I feel called to create no matter what anyone else thinks I'm going to do what I want to do.
And it's okay if not everybody loves it. It's okay if not everybody approves. They probably won't, and that will have everything to do with them and nothing to do with you. And what is true about what you're doing? What's true about what you're doing is whatever you decide is true for you. When you allow lots of other real or pretend opinions to come into your mind, you can let those change what you believe is your truth. 
You can start saying, well, maybe this isn't the right thing, or you can just let them go. You can release them and come back to what you know is true. You can come back to, I know that this is what I want to do, and I feel really good about it. If you find yourself worrying about wanting everyone to like you, isn't that so common, we hear so many people say, well, I just want everyone to like me, which is so funny, because that's impossible, first of all, but we still kind of want this like unbelievably impossible expectation to come to be. 
And I saw a meme recently on Instagram, that was so funny. It was like, why do you want everyone to like, you, you don't like everyone. Like you don't like everyone else. So why do you expect everyone to like you? It's just not ever going to happen. 
And so telling yourself I'm not for everyone and that's okay. Not, everyone's going to love this decision and that's okay. 
So I want you to think about something in your life that you have done or wanted to do. Maybe something that you have not done, because you're worried about what other people will think.
Is it starting a new hobby, like watering or painting or photography, or is it starting to run or do some other sport or is it the clothes that you want to wear or a business that you want to start? Going back to the clothes one, this is really interesting. I felt like for a long time, I would see other people wearing really cute outfits and think, oh, they're so good at that. They can really just pull that off. If I wore that everyone would think, why is she worried that she doesn't look good in that or whatever? I worried about what other people thought of me. And some sometime in my twenties, I don't know when it happened. I just had this realization that I can wear those things.
I can wear whatever I want. If I think that something's cute, even if it's a little, it feels a little bit adventurous to wear or something that's not, you know, the norm, I can wear whatever I want and I can decide that I love it and it looks great or whatever, and that it doesn't matter what anyone else thinks.
And it kind of helps to push yourself out of these boundaries that you kind of have given yourself of what's allowed. And so often it's because of what other people will think. Ooh. If I wore that other people would think that I'm just trying too hard or that I'm trying to be trendy or whatever. Who cares? How often are we not doing something that we want to do in our lives because we're worried about what someone else will think? And is it even someone whose opinion we want to rule our lives. 
So now that we know that worrying about what other people think really isn't even something that we can know. Like we can't even really know what they're thinking and that we know it doesn't serve us or them or the world we're going to let it go.
Here are some ways that we can let it go. Okay. First is to catch when we're doing it. Okay. It's so normal to do. There's nothing wrong with you. If you find yourself worrying about what other people think, but just start catching yourself. Maybe it's in a conversation with a friend or your mom or your husband where you're saying, oh, I wonder what she's going to think.
Or she's going to think I'm crazy, or he's going to believe that I should do it differently. Start catching yourself and notice what it's about.
So I am going to tell you guys some things that I find myself worrying about what other people think, this is just kind of silly. Okay. So this is a silly example, but I remember when my third daughter was maybe three and a half. I can't remember. She still had her Binky a lot. Okay. And I, she was my third kid, so I was sort of over it, but I would kind of try to take it out when we went places. And I honestly can't remember how old she was. I want to say three. And, I remember one time talking to a friend in my neighborhood and I was like, yeah, I think I'm over it.
She goes, yeah. I mean, cause honestly the only reason why you're trying to take it away is because of what other people think. I mean, let's just be honest. And she was right because the doctor or the dentist had already told me that it wasn't a problem at that age for her to still have it. Some of you who are married to dentists or are dentist yourselves may disagree with me on that. But he had told me not to worry about it. It really was the fear of judgment from other moms or other people and what they were going to think about me if they saw my three or four year old or whatever, with a Binky in her mouth. And I just had to be honest with myself and say, oh my gosh, I can't believe I really am doing this or stressing about this. And the only reason is because I'm worried about what other people think.
 Another example of this for me is when my kids sometimes don't, you know, change their shirt or they want to wear the same shirt multiple days in a row or same outfit. And I want them to change their outfit. I have to be honest with myself that it's because I'm worried about what other people will think.
I'm worried that their teacher at school might think, oh, are they, is their mom taking good care of them? I know it's probably normal for most of us to want our kids to change their clothes every day, or to not wear the same outfit multiple days in a row. But sometimes I had to be honest with myself and say, the only reason I care about this right now is because I'm worried about what other people think.
Now, if there was an issue with the clothes being dirty or something, that's a different issue. But if I really was just not wanting them to wear it, because I'm worried about what the teacher's going to think or the other kids or the other moms, then I have to just be honest with myself and say, okay, am I really doing this just because I'm worried about what other people will think? 
And I have to be honest that even in my business, sometimes when I'm going to create something new or try something new, I will sometimes find myself worrying about what other people think. And I have to go through these steps and remember that other people are going to think all kinds of things that it has nothing to do with me.
And that I've decided I do not want to let that stop me from pursuing what I feel called to do. So after you've caught yourself doing it, and you are really honest with yourself about it. You just want to remember that even if people are judging you or thinking things about you, that it's about them. So you want to just release those thoughts and remind yourself that you are going to follow what you feel called to do no matter what.
Now sometimes it's those little things like the Binky or the clothes or a dirty house. Let's talk about that one for a minute. How many of us are worried when someone comes over about our house being dirty? I decided a few years ago. I don't know when that I was not going to apologize for my house. I have four kids. I am not a type A super clean person. I let my kids play with toys. And sometimes my kids make messes and I don't follow them around and clean up constantly. So I decided that I was not going to apologize for my house. And I know that I'm not always perfect about it, but you guys, this is ridiculous. When people come over, can we all just not ever say anything about our house? I'm serious. Let's have a moment of silence. Like let's stop apologizing for our house because the only reason we're doing that is because we're worried about what the other person is going to think about our house. 
And the funny thing is that some people might walk in and say, Ooh, Ooh, yikes. This is messy. Other people might walk in and say, oh my gosh, I am so comfortable here because it feels like a normal house. And I'm not worried about my kids coming in, or me being here. I know that this is a safe place to just be myself. Those are two people coming into the exact same scenario, having two totally different thoughts about it because there isn't one right way to think about someone there isn't one, right truth that they are both going to think. They're going to think different things based on themselves and their own ideas and their own background and their own truths. So you get to decide what's true for you. 
Now, I know for a lot of you, you're still going to apologize for your house when people come over, but I'm just saying, maybe think about it. Maybe you don't do that anymore, or realize that that may be something you want to let go of. And just, what if we all stopped doing that and just let ourselves be normal humans who have people living in our houses also, the way we live. When we say, oh my gosh, sorry. I just got back from the gym. Who cares?
Who cares? If you don't have makeup on or aren't dressed for the day, let's stop also apologizing for how we live. Men don't do that. Right. My friend, Lauren Busby always talks about this. It's so good. Like men don't apologize for, oh, sorry. I just, my hair is not quite right and oh, sorry. I didn't, my shirt's not nicer.
It's like, no, they just show up or however they are. It's fine. And as women, I think a lot of times we're always apologizing for, oh, sorry. My hair's a little crazy and oh, I didn't have time to get ready. Who cares? And the only reason we're thinking about that is because we're worried about what someone else thinks about our appearance, about how we look about all those things.
That could probably be a whole other podcast episode. I didn't necessarily plan on bringing those things in, but I do think that it relates to worrying about what other people think. And it is so liberating to let that go to let it go to be yourself. To do what you want to do. If you want to start a new program or take a new class or start an Instagram account or begin a business or whatever it is, I want you to do it.
I want you to do the thing that you want to do. And for you, it might be something as simple as wanting to wear a hat or overalls or I don't know. It might just be something really simple that you're like, I actually really want to do that, but I've been more worried about what people do think about me.
Just do it. It's so liberating. And then tell me about it. Okay. Come over to Instagram, tell me how it went. And I just want you to know that you approving of yourself is the most important thing you can do, letting go of what other people think is so helpful. I mean, Even imagine saying, oh my gosh, I'm so glad I didn't go for that opportunity so that my neighbors won't think I'm weird.
I'm so glad my neighbors still don't think I'm weird, even though I really wanted that I really wanted to go for that. I really wanted to try that, but yeah, I'm so glad, you know, I shrunk back and held myself back from doing it. 
No. We never think that way. We never are happy that we held ourselves back from doing what we wanted, because we were worried about some person and what they thought of us.
Okay. So I just want you to think of all the things that you might miss out on. If you stay in this place, worrying about what other people think, it is not worth it. Okay. You are worth doing whatever you want to do. Your dreams are worth it. Your ideas are worth it, whatever it is. 
So I would love to hear what you think about this episode. If this is something that you have also struggled with, if this is helpful. It's something that I used to really waste way too much time on it distracted me from doing what I really felt called to do. And I'm so glad that I've gotten better. This doesn't mean that it's gone forever. It still comes up for me because I'm human, but it really is so liberating.
You guys, I'm telling you. Tell me what you think. You can do that by leaving a review on iTunes. I always love reading them. I read every single one and it keeps me going. I love it.

Jennifer L. IN LOVE!! What a perfect idea! I am a plant mama too, like Lisa. I also manage a great deal of anxiety. I got into lettering a couple years ago as a creative outlet and discovered a multitude of treasures in the lettering community! This book that Lisa created with her daughter is just perfection! It's all the feels for me! Thank you both!!!
Cinthanie C. EXCELLENT BOOK! I really enjoy taking a minute each day to slow down and apply my hand to something that is not only emotionally supportive but relaxing and fun to do!! The mantras for everyday are very helpful for me. Thank you for your work and bringing such a high quality product into my life!
