Understanding this quote
The quote separates other people’s opinions from your own responsibility. You cannot control “what people say about you,” so it does not need to define your attention or self-worth. But “what you say about you” is yours to shape: your self-description and inner judgment are your business. The focus is on managing your own view rather than chasing approval.
