First impression: On self-reliance

My first impression was that people can care less  about what you think about them or what you say.
Also that you think of something but don't express it because you are scared that people will judge you or might think different. Another impression i had was, that kind of   taught me as well was that you shouldn't really worry what other people see you as, for expressing yourself  in a different way. Think about yourself first  and let other people critique you after you've gone farther than them.
