How many people out there are donning a face mask, not because they think it’ll actually save someone’s life, but merely to people please? But people pleasing comes at a great cost to our personal integrity, as Jerry DeWitt describes in the following 7-minute video:
DeWitt’s speaks about his life from age 17-40:
“And I tried to please everyone. Little did I know that trying to please everyone was going to draw so much out of me… sometimes demanding my own personal integrity.”
At age 40, however, he gave up being a people pleaser.
“My heroes begin to change, my father figures begin to change, my role models begin to change. And what I begin to be drawn towards then, was no longer the larger than life performers that stand on the stage, but instead I begin to be drawn towards people that showed lives of true integrity; not necessarily based on public favour, but instead based on proveable facts.”
