The most terrifying thing in life has never been offending a few people or making a few mistakes, but rather living your whole life in compromise and fear. You must understand that life is a long term with ups and downs, and your life will not be ruined by any single point in time. Once you get used to pleasing others, what about your life? There will always be people to please, but if you get used to pleasing yourself? The result is that there will naturally be more and more people who will please you.
