The word Allodoxaphobia comes from the Greek ‘allo’ meaning different, ‘dox’ meaning opinion and ‘phobia’ meaning ‘fear’, ‘aversion’ or ‘morbid fear.’ Allodoxaphobia is at the root of why most of us will not live to the best of our ability. We fear what our spouse, parents, siblings, friends, acquaintances and family members would say about our choices, decisions and way of life. An opinion is a transitory perception; it can change over time depending on the context. You have a wider context to your life, hence the need to make decisions enabling you to live on your terms. In your 20s, you cared what everyone thought about you; in your 40s, you stopped caring what others thought about you; and in your 60s, you realized that no one was thinking about you. The earlier you realize that no one is thinking about you, that is the moment your life turns around.
