No matter how strong or positive you are, sometimes what people say or think about you really leaves a mark... Such situations either land up making you too conscious of how you are perceived as, and in that interest you forget to be yourself. Or take after developing a barrier between those who spoil your day, and end up being lonely!
I wont say that whatever is said about you shouldn't bother you, because it is but natural! And really very few are super carefree to attain that sainthood! But you don't necessarily have to resort to such self destructive methods for tackling these situations!
Isn't it excellent? To be yourself, still be happy around people who talk about you and at the same time completely ignore what is being said about you; just say it from the top - "What other's think of me is none of my business"! Sounds like a recipe for high spirits to me! :-)

Yes!! Have been traveling a lottt... :-)
I think that's an extreme too. Being too self conscious is one extreme, the other is being negligent. Self awareness probably helps me be tightly in touch with reality. To me, that is important. I doubt if I would ever say that what others think about me is none of my business, and I am sure I would not want to be driven by what others think about me. I think its about a balance, and being aware of what others think of me helps me with that.
As someone who has studied Business, I think it certainly matters, in fact that's the only thing that matters. What others think about me is absolutely MY BUSINESS.
Speaking strictly for myself
Hahaha... What you say is true, again limited to the perspective you are seeing from...
This is a narration of my friend's formula to deal with the situations when one is confused with statements that have created misunderstandings!
Situations much different than real business per say! :-D
