In the spirit of understanding i am going to start asking yall for your truth and definitions
So in your own words.
What is validation ?

Going on a date with Val Kilmer? (Preferably from his earlier days before he let himself go.)
This old chestnut…
Phew … it’s a lifelong struggle of up hill climbing only to realise you are in the middle of the fucking Andes!
But - when you understand the climb and validation is sought and strived for, from those who really count, parents, grandparents based peers - it can anchor you to discipline and ambition, in a healthy way and perhaps keep you on track to a life time of curious fulfilment.
Set backs and challenges are a given, but the hike will also offer amazing views across the journey.
I’m here in the Andes right now and this has been a great way for me to express so many metaphors and clichés to my grown children. Both physically and emotionally. It has also opened their eyes to how lucky they are and that luck is not a given either - it’s opportunity meeting preparation!
Have a blessed Sunday🙏 🧡💜
Have a blessed one yourself 😁🫂
High altitude here today. 5300m I have a thumping headache and want to crawl back into my tiny, hostel bed…but alas the validation I seek from my kids that I will get to the top of yet another mountain keeps me going. Just!
Perhaps a beer at the end of the day is my carrot 😂😂😂
An event that confirms an idea, belief or action.
It's what nodes do when they check the history for a complete path back to issuance for any Bitcoin you receive & for the Bitcoin in any transactions you broadcast or relay.
Acknowledgement from your peers
What about internal validation
Work out->feel better
Isn’t that a sense of accomplishment plus the dopamine released in the body?
Yeah that too but i assume it also gives validation in that you are doing the right thing
If that makes sense
Sense of accomplishment = internal validation
Acknowledgement from your peers = external validation ?
Id say proof to personal truth and ego.
Did i do the right thing ? Yes because x
Hey you are so strong, nice i am doing the right thing
I’m not sure I understand the prood to personal truth and ego. You mean showing to yourself that you can do something?
If we take the example of training consistently. Let’s say you’re doing your 900th skiing training. You already know you’re able to do it. What are you proving to yourself?
