- Hans Selye

About this Quote

This quote by Hans Selye speaks to the human condition of wishing to be accepted and valued by others, while at the very same time being fearful of being judged and slammed. It speaks with the duality of our nature, where we make every effort to be liked and appreciated, yet we are likewise afraid of being turned down and condemned. This quote highlights the value of self-acceptance and self-love, as it is just when we have the ability to accept ourselves that we can truly be free from the worry of judgement and criticism from others. It is only when we are able to accept ourselves that we can be genuinely content and satisfied.
