How far will you go to be popular? Each of us wants to be liked, successful, and likable. That’s why we have all acted against our principles, our values, our beliefs, and our gut feelings at some point. Many people even completely give up on themselves, bending over backwards to gain the admiration of others. In the short term, they achieve approval this way. However, in the long run, they lose themselves. Success has a lot to do with following your own path. It’s not about comparing yourself to others, but about having the courage to polarize, to set your own standards – and to endure that we cannot please everyone. Author and top speaker Carsten K. Rath lives what he writes: he consciously does not meet expectations imposed on him from the outside, but actively steers his life. He encourages his readers not to pretend, but to boldly find their own way to live happily and fulfilled.
