>Also one mindset that I am trying to adapt is people don't care at all. They have their own lives to worry and they might glance for you in a bit but then forget what happened afterwards like a goldfish.

I wonder how much of a part culture and upbringing play a part in how we develop in this arena? When I studied in Europe, as an American, I was surprised at the reticence of the British students. They were very reserved, almost painfully so, that I made it my mission to get them to loosen up a bit. 

I saw one English guy online explain that he would be too full of anxiey to return an unwanted item to a retail store as we do in the US. Here, I do it whenever an item doesn't meet expectations, and it's not looked upon in a bad way at all. 

In Germany, a muslim man was surprised that I greeted both him, his wife, and their male and female kids equally. Here in the US, men and women are considered equals, while in his culture women are almost seen as disposable. To me, his male family members were considered no more important than his female ones, and if he didn't like it, he could go pound sand. 

Thus culture (and the limitations it can place on us-if we allow it) has I think, a huge part to play in how we see ourselves and react to other people.

So the next time you're out there about to take a picture, ignore those people and get the shot that you want. Don't allow what you think about them to cause you to miss a moment that you may never see again. :)</div>

This is a great insight I never consider this idea until you brought it into daylight.  Yeah cultural norms would matter too! Filipino's tend to be more reserved and meek especially the ones who grew up in the rural area. We tend to see people oozing with confidence as a negative trait.

Jeez I am trying my best on that! HAHA old habits don't die easily.
