I think Billy Connolly is spot on here!
“There comes a point when you don't give a s**t what anybody thinks. It doesn't happen all at once, but it's lovely when it does. Criticism used to worry me before, but I can suddenly write it off. It's too late. I don't have the time to spend thinking about it anymore. I need that time to live with.”
It’s not about being arrogant or never caring — it’s about realising you can’t spend the time you’ve got worrying about every comment, every criticism or what strangers think. Billy’s always had that way of putting something quite big into plain language: eventually, you’d rather get on with living than waste energy trying to please everyone.
