You're the main character of your story.
You should stop caring about what others think.
You have two choices: either you can choose not to care and be your authentic self, or you can live your life wearing a mask.
Remember, everyone is the main character in their own story.
Imagine if you do something embarrassing or foolish in front of other people. They might remember it for a maximum of 30 seconds, and then they'll likely forget about it. Everyone is busy with their own lives, and they hardly spend time dwelling on you.
You might hear some people gossiping about you. Some people might say hurtful things or even dislike you.
But here's the thing: don't care about them.
Don't let their opinions affect you.
Don't allow them to change who you are.
Stay true to yourself.
Now, stop being scared and go ahead do the thing you've been wanting to do.
