Why are we constantly searching for other's opinion?

Why do we bother so much about others' opinions about us? Why can't we judge ourselves by our own strength and continue to do our work? Why are we deriving strength from others?

All this is because of two things:

one, we don't know anything about ourselves. We know ourselves only through others' opinions of us, only through others' certificates. second: when others give us their approval and attention, they are actually giving us energy to move on. Attention IS energy! That is why we feel so boosted when they give us attention.
