Be more concerned with your character than your reputation, because your character is what you really are, while your reputation is merely what others think you are.
Keep a good heart. That's the most important thing in life. It's not how much money you make or what you can acquire. The art of it is to keep a good heart.
If you want to understand someone's level of emotional maturity, observe how they respond when you express how they've hurt you. A mature individual who deeply cares about you will listen without deflecting, validate your feelings, and reflect on their actions. They will recognize that being accountable doesn't diminish their worth - rather, it deepens trust and connection with you. On the other hand, someone who is emotionally immature will dismiss, blame, or attack because self protection is more important than helping you heal. Pay attention to these responses - they will guide you toward clarity.
