Are you constantly seeking approval? It may be time to quit this dangerous habit.

Are you always looking for validation? Family, friends and colleagues are always in better control of your life’s direction, you are in fact fond of sampling ideas and opinions. Maybe you belong to that group of people who started with confusion and have ended up with greater confusion by the time they've finished shopping around for other people’s opinions. People call this the approval syndrome. It’s not strength but a weakness that often makes you less of who you are.
