A Quote by Alejandro Gonzalez Inarritu

Everybody is looking for validation, no matter who you are, and I think that's a need of the human condition - to look for affection or recognition or validation.
When we are looking for validation, that will never satisfy us. When we are looking for affection, for love, a little bit of that will be enough to be complete.
What makes people weak? Their need for validation and recognition, their need to feel important. Don't get caught in this trap.
I don't need validation, recognition or praise. What I need are facts and the facts are that one of my books gets sold, somewhere in the world, every second.
The world needs women who stop asking for permission from the principal. Permission to live their lives as they deeply know they often should. I think we still look to authority figures for validation, recognition, permission.
Don't solicit feedback on your product, idea or your business just for validation purposes. You want to tell the people who can help move your idea forward, but if you're just looking to your friend, co-worker, husband or wife for validation, be careful. It can stop a lot of multimillion-dollar ideas in their tracks in the beginning.
I think any time you allow someone to see themselves reflected in another person on screen, there's validation there. It's hard to feel strong and sure of yourself when you're 15, but if you can turn on your television or computer and see someone who makes you feel like, 'I can be that strong...' there's validation there.
I'm not running around looking for love and validation.
Make sure your decision to have a child is based on the need to share your life completely with another little human being and not because of some personal need for validation as a woman.
You search for images and stories and movies and music from people that look like you and sound like you and speak like you because you want to feel like, 'Oh, if they can do it, so can I.' There's a little bit of that need for validation, especially when you're younger and trying to look to someone to look up to.
I don't need validation from people at all.
I've tried to use the recognition as validation that I'm doing the kind of work that people are interested in and to feel that my work is a contribution.
I think we all need to be inside of us for 3 whole days, thinking about how we can love ourselves more, protect ourselves more, live life with more passion and look not outwards for validation but inwards.
The more validation I need, the less discernment I have.
I work hard for the audience. It's entertainment. I don't need validation.
Everything we do in our growing up has been done before. But it needs recognition and validation each time for each one of us - public, private, and secret.
I just think the key is really don't put something on the Internet if you're looking for some type of validation. Only put it on there if you feel good about it and you want to share it.
