This is not to say that you should be resistant or reluctant towards advice or good counsel. But do not let their mere opinions find a place in your mind and sit as true and nonnegotiable facts.
The reality is we can't be true all the time. We could not underestimate also the outside force that influence us.
But, its our final decision to decide because we have our free will.
Trusting ourselves too much is not really that good enough.
As if we're creating our own universe which I believe idolizing ourselves as creators and gods.
And we become less sensitive to the needs of others because all we do is for our own interests and benefits.
