When did I suddenly start relying so much on others and thinking so highly of what other people say?

I remember I used to do everything on my own - I didn't care what people thought about who I was, what I said, and what I did. Lately I've noticed that I really have been changing for people. Maybe this is a good thing, maybe this is a bad thing...

But I do know that for the rest of December, I'm not gonna care what anybody says or what they think of me. I'm gonna do my own thang.

Currently listening to: Lifehouse - Sick Cycle Carousel

You know dude, I had just attended a three day course on "Assertiveness for Managers". In short, it's telling you to be the CEO of your own life. ;)

I found that since I've left school, I crave praise. I want an A for the most mundane things too.

"Hey...didn't I give the car an A+ washing?"

"Wouldn't you say this is an A+ outfit?"

So perhaps you placing weight on what others say is a function of being out of school. No grades, no instant gratification.

Whatever happened to:
"Hey...didn't I give the car an adult washing?"
or...
"Wouldn't you say this is a very grown-up outfit?"

but i never took great pride in my schoolwork, and i was only an average student. but maybe it is because i haven't been getting appreciated... hmm.
