Worrying about what others think can hold us back from pursuing our dreams and making necessary sacrifices. Kate Cocker, from the Volley network, discussed this during her journal prompt segment, where she encouraged listeners to finish the sentence "If I wasn't worried about what people thought, I would..." Jonas Jansen's book, "The Promises of Giants," was mentioned as an inspiration for this topic. Jansen emphasizes the importance of self-awareness and making sacrifices to achieve goals, such as giving up laziness to become a professional basketball player. Cocker shared her personal fear of judgment and potential hurt as reasons for her own hesitation. By considering what we might insert after "I would," we can identify our own inhibitions and work towards overcoming them. Additionally, Cocker touched on the importance of sleep, emphasizing its role in removing toxins from the brain. Overall, this discussion encourages self-reflection and the pursuit of personal growth despite fear of judgment.
