How do you know when you should listen and when you should speak? How do you know when you should take into consideration what others think about you, and when to think only about what YOU think about you?

Life experience.
Listen when people are talking. Try not to interrupt them, if they are polite they will let you speak when they are done speaking.
Speak when spoken to. Speak when you have that burning sensation and desire in your chest, and you know if you don’t speak up you know you will regret it later. Also think before you say something. Decide if it’s worth saying, if it will offend others, or if it comes off as rude or ignorant.
If someone truly cares about you and your well being, take into consideration what they say about you. They are saying those things because they want you to be a better person than you already are, or to help you avoid getting hurt in the future. Generally, you should listen to your parents. Do not listen to people who do not know who you really are.
