英语美文：It's up to you to choose which way you want to go

10 reasons to ignore what other people think of you.

给你10个理由，让你不要在乎别人对你的看法。

 It is human nature to want to be liked and accepted by others. We accept the status quo for what it is, because everyone around us does. We tip-toe our way through life by doing things in order to please others. 

想让别人欣赏和接纳自己，这是人的本性。我们安于现状，因为身边的人也这样。为了让别人喜欢我们，我们活得小心翼翼。

Eventually, our actions, appearances, and lives become molded by how we think other people perceive us. But the truth is, what others think about us can often adversely impact the choices we make and the things we do. This desire to conform to the wishes of others can seriously conflict with our ability to lead independent and rich lives. 

最终，他人对我们的看法，塑造了我们的行为，我们的外貌，我们的生活。然而，其实，他人对我们的看法，往往会对我们的决定和我们做的事情产生负面影响。既想迎合他人，又想追求独立幸福的生活，这两者本来就是互相矛盾的。

Number 1 - Your life is your business. How many times have you pondered over questions like: How are these clothes going to make me look? What will my colleagues think if I speak out? Are those people talking shit behind my back? If I take this job, what will my friends and family think of me? Look, People are entitled to think whatever they want. 

第一，你的生活你做主。你是不是经常在想，我穿这个衣服看起来怎样？如果我说出自己的看法，同事们会怎么看我？那些人是不是在背后说我的坏话？如果我选择了这份工作，朋友和家人会怎么看我？别人怎么想，是别人的自由。
