Immanuel Kant says that in so far as our actions have moral worth, what confers moral worth is precisely our capacity to riseaboveself-interest and inclination and to act out of duty.
The most powerful thing we can do is riseabove the situation and untangle our self-worth from the person we believe we need approval from.
我们能做的最强大的事就是克服这种状况,将自我价值从他人的肯定中解放。

We integrate our experience, and then the richer human being that we are goes into the new experience; again we give ourself and always by giving riseabove the old self.
