How to stop seeking approval from others

Buddhability - A podcast by SGI-USA - Fridays

Consider any situation you’ve found yourself in where you felt like you couldn’t truly be yourself. Have you ever changed your behavior to fit in or impress others? On this episode, we’re talking with Brandon Poythress, of Dallas, who struggled with exactly that from a young age. When he started practicing SGI Nichiren Buddhism, he quickly discovered he was seeking approval from other people, which, in Buddhism means you are seeking happiness outside yourself. Today we’ll cover how to flip that script and turn inward to find yourself instead.
