Why do we need to prove to people? Do you feel the need to prove to people?

To prove that you can do something, to prove that you can succeed or become something? when people have doubt in you does it make you want to prove it to them, to show them, so that they respect you more. or does it bring you down and make you feel that maybe you can't do it. Or don't you care?

What really matter's what you think? or what other people think?

Answer:
This is one of our greatest concerns - to prove to others.
To me, I try to prove to MYSELF.
[BUT one has to be rational, wise, fair and disinterested to do this].
If we try to prove to others all the time, our efforts will boil down to nothing. We will end with losing ourselves.
the biggest problem i have is proving things to myself i cudnt give a FF about what anyone else thinks.
If you do it in moderation than it is ok...for example you can prove you are a success in your parents eyes or you can complete the job to your boss.

But to prove everybody wrong all the time is a whole different matter
i'm unique. just like everyone else...
Not me, I could care less what anyone thinks of me and I know what I can do and what I can't do, I never feel the need to show anyone that I can do anything. People either like me for the person that I am or they don't and it doesn't matter to me cause people are just a pain in the *** anyway, not to mention the fact that you can't trust anyone except yourself so what is the point?
I think we all try to prove something, i know many who would say "I don't give a **** about what others says" but that seems to be a lie? everyone, of course, want's to prove their worth, in one way or another. I simply don't believe that there is one single human being, above the age of 10, that has never the phrase "I bet i could." or "Do you think i can."...

B/c we also want that ...... we also want to prove same thing whith others to clear that will be done
Think in this life there's the leaders and then these the followers.
I myself need not those type of people, to make me feel good about myself, who cares what they think they don't pay my bills.
