While reading the post itself I was able to see my belief, because he isn't famous and not valued by society i just skimmed over the post and at the moment I was to click the cross button, I read the question and saw the answer .... and that is why I also start judging my worth from others lens..and end up valuing which is not worth it...
Swamiraj ji, notice what actually happened in that moment — the skimming didn't stop because you remembered a principle, it stopped because the question hit something live. That's worth staying with. You caught the exact mechanism: you give a name authority before you've even looked at the work, and then you use that same borrowed authority on yourself, waiting to see how the world rates you before deciding what you're worth. The question isn't just "do I value others by recognition" — it's "whose certificate am I actually running my own life on." That's the one to keep watching, not just here, but the next ten times you decide something or someone matters.
