What Others Think---This is Practical, but it Looks Like Philosophy, Hence the Designation

Too many people take what other people think of them and define themselves from that. This is especially true between genders. It seems that the more important someone seems to one, the more they will define themselves based on the picture the other has of them. People need to know that other people can only judge someone by some outward actions that consist of a fraction of a fraction of that persons whole life, that images of people are always false, and finally that one can never own another's mind, and if another mind paints a picture of them, it is a natural law that the other mind owns it completely, and one must simply say "if you want that ugly thing of me hanging on the wall of your mind, more power to you. You own it. Good luck with that." A lot of depression exists because of the mind saying, on a deep level, "I have to but I can't." "I have to change this reality but I can't." People want to change the reality of the painting others have of them, but by law, they own it, and one can simply say "fine. Take it. You created it, it's yours. Have fun with it." This can be done with loved ones as well as with anyone else. It can free people.

God Bless.

Many build their egos (or false selves) on the pictures others have of them. It would last until too many people close to them betray them. Many think they are happy until that happens, then suddenly, anger wells up. Resentment. Guilt, etc. I personally don't put stock in egos. We all have to have one; that is the way the modern human mind works. But we can realize what they are--no more than tools to navigate through life and forge the destiny you want. People tend to identify directly with their egos. Big mistake.

And reality consists of the falseness and ineffectiveness of the pictures others have of one. The one with the insecurities does NOT see that. They think the PICTURES are the reality. Hence the insecurity and so on. Very few of us live up to our full potentials, and I believe that a big part of that problem is our buying into what others have thought of us our whole lives from early childhood on.
