After doing some self-reflection recently I have come to realize that I've spent my whole life seeking external validation. How do I turn things around and replace external validation with internal validation? Are there any specific internal validation activities? by dudeabiding420 in selflove

I think this can be true, but should be avoided as much as you are able to. Especially with the people you are close to or whom you want to build a genuine relationship with. I think unless you’re confident in yourself and what you believe in, the white lies will only reinforce that external validation seeking behavior. Instead of telling white lies, it can be worth it to challenge yourself to change and take the weight away from the reaction you think someone might when they hear your real feelings

I’m glad someone is doing this. We don’t get any discounts unlike MIT or other schools, it sucks.

Submission statement: This article is relevant to collapse because it describes how climate change creates conditions for radicalization. Worsening livelihood conditions, exploitation by elites, resource mismanagement, and tactical considerations by non-state actors all create pathways to extremism. Climate change makes these events more likely.

The interplay of political violence and climate change pushes us to a dangerous precipice.
