If you judge the value of your life based on other people's opinion of you, you will never be happy. We all do it to a degree, but making it the ultimate goal will only lead to failure.
How many great men or woman, who did wonders for humanity (on a micro or macro level), died alone? Many I think, Tesla springs to mind.
Judge your life on how you treat others, for that is someone you can control, not how popular you are at the end (something you can't control).
