This world is essentially about personal responsibility. The universe only rewards those who truly live for themselves. I used to do many things regardless of the consequences; when I succeeded, those who doubted me fell silent; when I failed, they still blamed me but never took any responsibility for my failures. At that moment, I understood: no matter the outcome, the burden is always mine alone. If that’s the case, why should I care about others' opinions? Acting according to others' standards is essentially absurd. After realizing this, I learned to gradually shed those externally imposed frameworks of thought, societal norms, and moral constraints, and build my own value system within. A person who is awakened is self-centered. They ask: What do I think? What should I do to benefit myself the most? As long as it’s legal, I will stick to being myself and refuse irrelevant evaluations and interference. Unless you are a professional or someone who truly understands and cares about me, willing to offer sincere advice—otherwise, please maintain boundaries, don’t listen, don’t look, don’t mind.

Do not overly care about others, especially those who set expectations under the guise of 'I’m doing this for your good.' Many times, this is actually a form of moral coercion. Once you go against their wishes, you will be blamed for being 'unreasonable' or 'disrespectful.' If it’s your parents, you might even end up PUA-ing yourself, falling into self-doubt. But in all this, have you truly asked yourself: Is this what I want? Secondly, do not care about others' evaluations. Many people judge you not out of goodwill, but because they fear your success will make them look incompetent. If you change yourself to cater to them, they won’t bear the consequences when things go wrong. So don’t take others' standards seriously; their judgments are often subjective, biased, and even driven by jealousy. Most importantly: do not live by a single standard of social evaluation. If 'success = having money,' then most people are destined to be failures, as wealth is concentrated in the hands of a few. Why search for a sense of value in such a predetermined losing game? We can completely establish our own evaluation system. Even if there are no clear standards, we can flexibly define happiness and success, such as health, freedom, and a love for life.
